Christmas inspiration from the web - table setting

Good afternoon everybody,

I'm sorry about my long silence but it's not the best Christmas this year, some sadness around that took my creative mood away but it's not gone forever...I'm just waiting for my happiness to come back so I can share it with the world as it's contagious.
Instead, I went around looking for some great table settings for you and my favorite is this one, especially for those with children like me or those who doesn't want to grow up :-) like me too.

I found it on Simply Sweet Soirees so pop over there for more eye candies!


Have a great week end!
Jess

2015 Free Printable A4 Calendar - Must have if you are a stationary mad

Happy Monday and welcome back from holidays!

this year I've decided not to wait till the last minute to start create my agenda. So I made up this little A4 printable 2015 calendar with a month per page with space to write on them.
I got a cheap A4 folder (and I'm decorating it with fabric and stickers... yes, the geek on me has taken over)  that I can use as a nice office desk calendar with all the pages I need)
In the next week, I'll be publishing also the weekly A4 pages and the birthdays sheets so it's all ready for you to print from a home printer.

To download the 2015 calendar IN ENGLISH just click here.
To download the 2015 calendar IN ITALIAN just click here.

If you think about another page I should add, leave a comment or contact me. I'll be happy to make it! A nice stationary set is never enough!

My crafty days off

What do you do when you re on holiday?
well, apart from sea, sand and visiting...here's what I did this weekend.

A nice craft tote
 and a baby bib for a little girl and for the mama that will thank me so she doesn't spill the food everywhere.
I also made a rice bubbles and chocolate cake but it was so disgusting that I'll never do it again.

ps. If you like any of my creations, just ask and I'll make a customized one for you or just visit my shop for supplies and requests.

Happy Sunday....and keep following as next week more printable to come.

This photographer makes me dream

These photos are such an eye candy that I had to have them on my blog.
Laurent Chehere is such a talented artist!
French born, he created this collection called Flying Houses mixing photography and digital. Combinations of his exploration of poor neighborhood of Paris and some movies like "The Red Baloon" of Albert Lamorisse, these houses show a hidden beauty in every little detail. I can imagine Dorothy's house being one of them, don't you?
Here are some of my faves for the day, don't you wish to fly in one of them? or maybe have your one flying? This could be a hint for a new Diy :-)

Have a great day everyone! xxx Jess

Custom order for Tizy

Aren't they lovely?



She sent me this great photo as of course I forgot to take it before I shipped them and even if they have been used and used, they still look great! She chose this combination and it looks so cool despite the fact I had to adjust because they weren't PINK. :-)
Thank you again for challenging me! I love it.

House keys revamp tutorial: 10 mins including a manicure

How many times did you spend time looking for the right key? Well, with this veeeeeery quick tutorial this problem will be long gone.

All you need is paper tape, nail polish (I used KIKO ones than are cheap but have great colours) and 10 mins of your time.
 I recommend to varnish with transparent nail polish at the end for a long lasting effect but it's not necessary at all.
and while you wait for them to dry....you have plenty of time for a manicure to spoil yourself a little bit. Crafty hands can be chic too...( even if covered with craft glue :-) )

I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. (WE because those little hands painting are my son's...so easy that a 6 years old could do it)

Happy Sunday!

Customized Bracelets - so lovely!

Hello,
just a quick post to show you some more bracelets requested by Deby but this is also a chance to make you think about the meaning of working with other people. Well, I've realized that working on a commission based work is so gratifying. Most of the time you learn from them more than creating yourself. In this case, I would have never thought to add so many details to my bracelets and now I love the look. The beauty in this world is that we are all different with ideas, opinion and style. And yes, we are all inspiration to each other.
Thank you for inspiring me so much!

Rubber band bracelets tutorial

Good morning,

I don't know where you live but here in Italy rubber bands bracelets are everywhere. TV ads are marketing them every hour and my son Nicky likes them too. His grandparents gave him some fluorescent rubber bands but he doesn't know what to do with them as they show how to do them using a machine. So here I am, a crafty mummy searching the net to find an easy tutorial to impress her son :-).
Here what I found simply using 2 pencil. Yuppie!

thank you craft & creativity for this great tutorial and a lot more.
Enjoy!
