Sweet finds

Sorry friends and followers, we went on vacation for 2 weeks, and ended up staying a month!  A nice treat to end the year! I would love to show you some pictures, but unfortunately my computer is full and we are in the process of buying a new one. Hopefully within the next week I can post, I took some amazing sunset photos!!
 I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year! I'm excited to start posting what this year will bring!!! 


I've been doing the second hand store shopping around town, and have started collecting antique floral dishes. The bottom 4 pictures are my finds so far, it's like going on a treasure hunt!!  
The picture below is of a Shabby Chic cup I fell in love with at Winners, mmm and I made some good hot chocolate to go in it! 
The second picture is of my Babushka Dolls, also known as Matryoshka Dolls from Russia. My step mother brought these back to me when she went to Russia. My new project which I hope to be starting soon (after the house is back in order) is to sew the dolls, as little girl toys.  Thanks for stopping by, Tereza 

5th Street Christmas

I took Mak for an evening walk, and to do some window shopping in our down town core, which is by the way 3 blocks long!  We live in a small town...  The stores on this street are all locally owned and it's very festive this time of year. Since it's dark so early, you get to enjoy all the christmas lights and decorations, and the street plays Christmas music. I used to work in one of the home interior stores called Tab Imports, which sells imports from Bali, and interior decorations from Abbott and such companies. I would Love to have my own interior decor store one day!  anyways these are just some pictures I took that night.

Owl craft

So I felt a little crafty today, and made this little owl. I had no pattern to follow so I had to make it up. My Fiancee says it looks like a bird, because owls have no necks, so next time I hope it works out better!  When I was done I also attached the pink ribbon on it's head to make it a bird instead of an owl. Let me know what you think looks better.

With christmas a little over a month away, I've been browsing the net for some decor ideas. Here's some nice pictures I found for some inspiration!
