Monday

leftover cake, tea, fresh flowers and pom poms

  


today: making pom poms for knitted mittens, drinking tea, eating leftover cake from the mother's day celebrations we had here yesterday. in other words quite a lovely start on this new february week....*smiling*! 
i am wearing my knitted parsnip tunic today, SO comfy! combined with a green silk dress and stockings, both from noa noa, i suddenly felt like spring had arrived despite the snowy weather outside. the lovely bouquet of fresh flowers that i bought myself several days ago are still looking happily fresh, love their colors and shapes....
i find it lovely to put on clothes that i have made with my own hands, quite a special feeling. take a look at the beautiful outfit nicole has made for herself, she is such a talented and inspiring woman...*smiling*!

  1. Your parsnip tunic must have taken quite some time to knit! Nicole's outfit is lovely - and so comfortable looking.
