Summer is
officially here dear readers and three months of summery things lie ahead!
Things I
like doing in summer time:
- riding my very old but dear bike,
- gazing at open , turquoise blue horizons,
- day dreaming,
- crafting without looking at the watch!!!!
I love
these little changing rooms/huts on the beach and can’t stop taking photos of
them. I think this ‘tendency’ is related to my little obsession with similar
little houses (i.e. bird houses, doll houses , beach huts etc), as you already
knowJ.
First day
of summer and a first summer crafting idea for you!!:
A sea horse made of little pieces of tiles , china and glass, found on the beach!
Collecting
theses tiny weathered, sea drifted
pieces is another one of the things I like doing while on holidays and
it is definitely another one of my little obsessions…..:)
I put them
in boxes and arrange and rearrange them, till I find the right pieces to give
life to a little critter.
It may
sound like an easy thing to do , but it actually takes up a lot of time
and effort, but when everything comes
together and all the little pieces of the puzzle are on their right place, the
outcome is very pleasing and rewarding!
I used some
PVA glue to stick the pieces on this drift wood I found on the beach and gave
it a new appearance using sandpaper and varnish.
Do you like
it?
I think it
will add a summery touch to your home. So , why don’t you give it a try!
Happy
crafting dear readers and a happy June to all of you, wherever you are in this
vast world!
