My Lekman collapsed and broke!

My ultimate dollhouse , the lakman box I loved, just collapsed on the floor and broke. I am heart broken. ,Ikea is so far away,and Lekman is the ultimate house for me! You see, I dont have "real " dollhouses yet.
Luckly they open a renewed the Ikea( the old burned down a year ago) closer to me. And so until I'll get a new box,I'll settle for knitting......

the two posts are actually one- I'm having technical problems lately......
Anyway- winter is still here and i wanted a clear somewhat icy atmosphere. It worked out to a certain extend....

Ice queen

Winter isn't gone yet. So here in the modern kingdom of the Ice queen you see glass as clear as ice, water colors and a bit of fur and fun .

Winter isn't over yet......

December in Haifa

 Haifa is 25 km from home and used to be home for me for many years.Its a happily mixed city:
Christians, Muslims and Jews- about 270,000 at the moment.
Every December the holidays of thethe three religions  are celebrated: Christmas, Hanuka and if there is an Id ( this year there is nothing on) .
Every weekend downtown Haifa is packed with visitors looking for the Holiday spirit. It an occasion of mixing Culture , art, religion and of course food.
you won't find Leebkuchen or straw  and wood decoration , but Falafel,Schwarma, red, green, gold, silver and a lot of snowflakes and glitter!
It was a fine dry cold and sunny day today .

A day bed makeover: before and after pictures

I got this day bed and saw the potential behind its country, too sweet image, so the make over is presented to you - I hope its clear enough.








Very recommendable for this kind of craft, is the Güttermann textile glue. It really is an all purpose glue- no sewing needed!

Et voila'!

How do you like it now? I do. It looks more grown up now.....
