After the rain...

rain

Since the summer has officially arrived, the weather turns absolutely nuts. I can't remember the day without rain.

Even when the sun appears and it seems that the rain is finally over, it happens to rain again. And again...and they said it is going to be like that at least for the next 2 weeks.

There is a lovely field of poppies (those planted to get the seeds, that had the beautiful violet flowers ) on the way to our weekend, getaway house at Fruska gora. I was so sad that this year I missed taking the pics of that field in bloom, as we were in Italy during that blooming period, but I was impatiently waiting to the pods to get formed well and take the pics of them. I just love them!!!They have always been so inspirational.

So, last weekend between one splash of rain and another, I managed to go to that field and take some pics. I was so disappointed when I realized that due to all this rain, they have adopted many mouldy stains and spots all over.

I don't have the idea if the owner of that field will have the possibility of collecting any of the poppy grain from the pods(not b/c I just had to make myself a bouquet, to take it home), as they are just not looking very "healthy"...but I 'm so happy that I however had the chance to take all those pictures:)

My new listings, on eBay.

I made this outfit a few months ago, but never find enough time to list it and after that, to recreate it!!! Marta is so happy when wearing it, we both love it, and she is getting so many compliments when wearing it;)

A few new/old things

I went to my craft store on Saturday, which is not even close to some US craft stores full of different goodies, but sometimes, they get some new stuff, that is simply beautiful....like this amazing wooden Japanese button I found. It is large, 3 cm in diameter and very expensive, but I just had to buy it...and I already know how to use it, but will definitely take some more;)

And they also have sort of the basket full of different crafty old goodies, that is some remaining, last piece etc...and there I found this button....

LOVE it!!!

I've been so happy to catch one flower exhibition in the city where I bought these lovelies, made of wooden sticks, I think

bulke

I have no idea how these should be called in English, but I found them so beautiful in structure, cheap too(1.20$ a piece) and will adorn my dry flowers corner;)
They will look good with my newly made cushions,too. They are made with ikea fabrics;)

I'm so happy because, my oldest baby, Marta is coming home today...she has been with her kindergarten in one of the Serbia's mountain resorts, Tara for one week. I've missed her so much!!!

Have a great week everyone!!!!
