Miau!

Yesterday, my dear friend Leti made such a sweet present to me... I'm totally in love with this cute little (smiling!) cat - somehow it makes you happy just looking at it :)

Thanks again, dear :)

Moving!

Good Morning!

I wasn't that creative and active in the crafting and blogging world the last weeks which might be because I'm moving this weekend... To another flat in the same city, but still it is work and means some good preperation... Nevertheless, last week I had at least one evening, on which I made all my homemade presents for the next month :) 2 pairs of earrings (provided by a talented teacher ;) ) and one bracelet for a man! I will post the pictures the next days...

So after this weekend I'll be back :) The heat right now is amazing - another good reason to stay away from indoors :) I just try to enjoy every sunray here - my new flat has an amazing balcony which might enable both - crafting and tanning ;)

Let's get it started :)

Being the kind of buffet-personality

... is this the right way to express what I mean? I don't know and right now it doesn't matter. What I was thinking of the last days was concerning some future plans... After going for a run today (finally the sun came back again...) I came to a great insight... It's great to help yourself at the great buffet of life with all its opportunities and offers... sometimes I'm so unhappy to have just a little gift in so many things and not to have a real gift in one single field... But isn't this even better? Isn't it just great to have the choice and to try out the variety of things? Isn't it perfekt to knit just after writing an e-mail on your smartphone? Is it so bad to be able to eat 2 chocolate bars and then going for a long run (I know people that can't do either of them ;) )? I guess it's great to eat from the buffet - better then having to make a choice á la carte everytime. Some day will come when it's too late to try out everything... So maybe it's best to give things a chance as long as we are able to!!

In this spirit... Have a great weekend and join me at the buffet :)

Sunny day!!

Guys, today I feel really great! The sun was shining today in southern Germany and after a short shopping-trip (I found suuuch a nice summer dress :D ) I spent 3 hours now at our local sea, sunning and tanning for the first time this year. And guess what - instead of reading a book I found out you can do bracelets perfectly outside just lying in the grass. I made a really cool woven bracelet and also started an anklet in macrame style which is great because my feet seem to be a little bigger than the standard... I really have problems with finding an anklet that really fits... Thats the great opportunity for doing your stuff yourself :D

So I'm heading for a Crèpes-Party now watching the Eurovision Song Contest with friends :D Can't wait to post the pics of my new darlings soon!

The Beginning

Ok folks... It's 3 a.m. and it feels kind of weird because I have to work tomorrow, I'm not tired at all but full of inspiration and creativity! Yeah, sounds like one of these lifestyle-blogs everyone has right now. Maybe it is just one like that. But for me it means a lot. As the title tells you - after a long episode of being someone I didn't like to be - I'm back again, full in bloom as my colleague told me some weeks ago.

My English isn't perfect so feel free to correct me ;)  But what I'm basicly trying to do is to share my newborn energy, creativity and also freakiness to be just who I am. This includes looot's of crafts, creative projects, recipies, fashion... and other stuff that makes life worth living.

Did I mention that I'm travelling to Berlin tomorr... today? Then on to Hamburg, having another stop in Frankfurt to come back to my hometown... Time enough for grasping some inspiration DOWNTOWN!

Recently, thanks to a good and also (freaky!) creative friend of mine, I got addicted to Pinterest... So feel free to follow my pins there :)

Cheers! And good night (3 hours of sleep left, weeeha ^^ )
