My new pieces

I made 2 new items...in between opening and shifting boxes.
The first necklace was made for alatvian 's challenge, "Cheap and Chic". Check all the entries on her blog.



The second necklace was made for the "Wild versus elegant" challenge. It was fun but very tricky to make. I like the result a lot ^_^ You can check the entries on Vilte's blog.

In the meanwhile the kittens are growing. They are just so chubby and cuuuuuute.
Nap time. Napping is an activity that requires the highest level of concentration!
And if you're a kitten, it's an art form!

Moving out

Wow, I can't believe I have been in the new house for a week already. And what a week. I am pooped. It's a bit hard to adjust to the new surroundings, but the cats make it home :) Home is where Pikachu is, right =^.^=
On monday the 18th.
8 AM the truck is there...
It feels odd to see the house get emptied of its furniture and zillions boxes (not kidding, the removers called for extra help LOL)





They were done by 5 pm but the cat move was just starting for us.
I managed to get 7 home on the first day. Got the rest but 2 on the second and had to get sneaky for the 2 remaining ones. I had to give them relaxing pills so I could catch them.
But it's all done now...and they all seem happy in the new house and garden.
On the second night I had a surprise...my new extra cat (the one the neighbours gave up ) gave birth on my bed. I was sleeping and suddenly felt something warm and wet on me...I opened my eyes to see Eugenie (the catmom) with a dark lump...lump was kitten #1.
She had 3 (only 3 I am saying with relief). And they are ADORABLE.



Arent' they just perfect...all fluffy and chubby :) ?

The New Kitchen

I bought a house last year but it needed a lot of works done to be made to my tastes. Finally the Ikea kitchen is in place. I am really happy with the result, especially when you see what it used to look like ;)

The axe kitchen (as made with an axe)

My white kitchen

It still needs new wall tiles and some paint on the wall, but this does feel more like my house now :) You can also see the new "atelier" window through the window.
And I have a dishwasher now. It works fine, the guy tested it and it cleaned my instruction booklet really well :/

EST Tree challenge



Last week challenge for the European Street Team on Etsy was "tree", a theme chosen by Renate from Kreativlink.


Here's what I came up with, a lime fawn in a forest. I really like those metal frames I recently bought.

My Secret Bunny

My Secret Bunny was Evelyn from Sumikoshop (from Italy).
I am not the patient type, so I opened the packages right away :)

I got super cute earrings and a pretty brooch.

I put the brooch on my handbag.
