Well, I really have had to hurry with this garland! Since the weather forecast says that the winter is coming back later today with lot of snow and minus temperatures again - I wanted to keep the spring feeling and hang my new garland in the window. It was raining the whole day yesterday so I had enough time to put all the flowers together and decorate everything...I am gonna try to ignore the snow and think forward of all…
Oh my gosh, it seems like forever, since I posted some pictures on my lovely website. The reason for that was not, that I am the laziest person in the world, no, I was really down with the flu, but it seems like everybody has that at the moment. But Friday was the first day, when I felt a little better and I immediately turned into crafty-Andrea. I can show you my new bunting, made out of different sized doilies…
My hubby is getting a supercute gift, which I secretly finished last week already! Well, the original idea I had in mind, seems to be unworkably.

I have to say, knitted mug cozies seem to be everywhere and you just gotta love them. I even do not care if they are spelled mug cozy or mug cosy. This fall and winter I don`t drink coffee from a 'naked' cup. Well, making them is another story. You need to know some serious knitting in order for them to look nice. Luckily I have friends, and Marius was able to do those beautiful crochet roses that I simple…
