{ In the mood }

In the mood for making more holiday treats (in the s h o p already)


In the mood for making another dye experiment (we -hubby & I- actually another one today but it will take longer as we try another way) ... In fact I just realized that I hadn't told you here that I had made a second experiment, this time with Viburnum Tinus (you may know it under the name of Laurestine) ... the result was surprising, and you can read & see more just clicking the photo above (which shows you the final result of the experiment) :


In the meantime I love mixing and matching the dyed fibers & seasonal colors ... and I think they go along pretty well. Lovely autumnal palettes ...


In the mood for taking the Christmas stuff out of the cupboard, out of their boxes, and start putting fairy lights on ... it's so grey today, I long for magical little lights in my creative space (which happens to be in the living room ... so everyone would enjoy anyway !)

In the mood for baking muffins, but also for trying our very first homegrown lentil sprouted seeds ! Both shall happen tomorrow. This was yesterday evening, after rincing & draining them :


I wish you all a lovely weekend ahead. We'll be staying home (U attending a birthday part on Sunday afternoon) and I'm so looking forward to it, and I'm even wishing it'll be raining ! (some of you are going to hate me for saying this LOL)
Please take good care everyone ! Many hugs your way xoxo

I just adore those beautiful fall colors! I tried dyeing paper with flower colors before but haven't tried on fabric yet.

Your home looks so cozy! I love it!

I love these earthy colours your acheiving and the photos are divine. We could send you some rain, lots and lots and lots of rain. We've had inches today and wind, scary wind. Have a lovely weekend, and stay cozy:)

Hi Sonia! Your dye experiments are fascinating. Reminds me a lot of what the Native Americans did. Cute holiday ornaments, too. Hope you're having a great weekend! (((Hugz)))
