It is sad that at the end of every December we keep forgetting the real reason for the Christmas holidays. Somehow, lost in the impassionate or sometimes passionate shopping vortex, we keep forgetting to be thankful for what we have. The precious time. Together. A man and his wife on the road Even though this… Continue reading
New year is coming! January is almost upon us and expecting magical new beginnings almost all of us will start writing New Year resolutions, lists of goals and a lot of money will be spent (or they are already spent) on beautiful notebooks and expensive pens. Ok, if I am honest, I love beautiful notebooks… Continue reading
This year the “back to school” wave totally caught me! Previous years were also exciting, but being the mother of a boy, doesn’t make for huge fun with decoration. Having my little niece in first class this year, was very different. I am still embellishing pencils, pens and all the stationary you can imagine. So, I… Continue reading
Like many of you I am obsessed with bullet journaling. Now, when I’m a bit older, they remind me of my teenagers years, when I was equally obsessed with writing my diaries.

In the past, people, even the rich ones, didn’t buy so many clothes as we do now. I remember my… Continue reading
We are very often taught, especially from TV that giving presents shows love and buying them shows love, but is this really true? I will never forget the lesson I learned many years ago – the difference between a “present” and a “gift”. I don’t remember if I shared this simple rule with you before,… Continue reading
If you are reading my blog, you already know about my fear of flying. And you know my husband and I have to fly a lot. Oh, really a lot! But the fear of flying is only one side of the coin. The second side is my handmade business, which I am running even while… Continue reading
It is still January and the theme of New Year’s Resolutions is still very important. I am always writing my Resolutions, but in the last few years have very often failed to fulfil my promises. As I realised, one of the reasons for this is so simple, almost stupid. I don’t have a simple, always… Continue reading
The marker watercolour technique If you are reading this article, maybe you have the same problem I experience. I am spending a lot of money on craft materials and craft instruments.
