Primitive Sea Pebble Necklace for Him

2011-10-12T00:20:00.000+02:00

Finally I took my Dremel and I have started drilling holes in my beloved sea glass and pebbles. I want to use them to create a primitive rustic series of jewelry that will suit also men. I must say that drilling holes in the sea glasses or pebbles I have found ( but I am sure I do not find them, but that they find me!!!) and selected is a strange feeeling... yes... it certainly feels strange to

Colori e sapori di inizio autunno

2011-09-28T00:32:00.000+02:00

Mele cotogne appena colte dall'albero al mattino presto con la rugiada che ancora non è stata asciugata dal sole. Le mele cotogne sono difficili da trovare in commercio perchè non si possono mangiare crude e hanno una buccia "pelosa" e la forma spesso irregolare che le rendono poco piacevoli al tatto. Ma se usate per fare marmellate e gelatine, oppure per cucinare sono semplicemente favolose

Girasoli

Era da tempo che volevo fare dei girasoli, avevo l'idea del progetto in testa che mi frullava e frullava ma non riuscivo a trovare il tempo necessario per provare. Ci ho messo un pò ma quando ho iniziato mi è piaciuto così tanto che ho dovuto fare anche orecchini e anello. Lo Swarowky centrale è grigio fumè scuro, e secondo me si abbina perfettamente ai toni marrone e giallo dorati delle

Crochet Covered SeaGlass anf Pottery: my first attempts!

2011-09-09T21:58:00.001+02:00

Era da tempo che vedevo in giro le pietre ricoperte con i pizzetti all'uncinetto e volevo provare a ricoprire alcuni dei mie vetri marini che sono troppo grandi per essere incastonati con le perline. Non immaginavo che mi sarebbe piaciuto così tanto che ne avrei fatto subito una serie.

Vi presento la Signorina Flora

2011-09-01T00:26:00.002+02:00

Questa è la "signorina Flora" appena finita in mezzo a alcune sorelline e cuginette che stanno crescendo e saranno pronte a breve anche in altri colori. Non riesco a stare ferma nemmeno sotto l'ombrellone, e così mi sono messa a giocherellare con l'uncinetto e mi è nata l'idea per la Signorina Flora. L'idea iniziale era di fare delle decorazioni per l'albero che ricordassero i vestitini delle

a day at the lake...in southern italy

2011-08-28T22:44:00.000+02:00

con questo caldo besitale ci voleva una gita in montagna, lontani dal caos del mare e dal traffico cittadino. Io mi sono fatta affascinare dalla pigrizia dei pescatori... e dalla pigrizia delle mucche al pascolo.Peccato che l'afa di agosto non permettesse di vedere il mare in fondo alla vallatta.

Come tutti gli anni anche quest'anno il perido di vacanze estive è finito. L'ultimo bagno in mare è ormai un ricordo, anche se solo di ieri, così come le cene in riva al mare. E come al solito il resoconto bilancia è spietato! E pensare che mi sono mezza annegata nel tentativo di cammuffare in mezzo al mare le mie abluzioni di acquagym... ho ordinato le insaltatone... ho bevuto litri di acqua...

Italian Florentine Renaissance Inspired Beaded Pendand and Earrings

2011-07-28T21:52:00.001+02:00

This pendant and matching earrings are inspired by renaissance painting. Especially they are inspired by a historical event I went recently and by the gorgeous costumes they were wearing at the parade. The pitcures do not show the proper teal and deep golden colour of this set. I really really love them.

Week-end on the Colli Euganei Hills

2011-04-20T00:27:00.004+02:00

A great week-end on the Colli Euganei Hills with a stroll in the wine yards, the fields filled with daisies and among the secular cherry trees with cherries that will be ready to eat in 2-3 weeks. The weather was sunny and windy, the air smelling of fresh rain and spring, and the view from the hills so relaxing. The poet Petrarca has lived and felt in love with this part of Italy when in
