Fresh Week, I’m going to buy some paper filling for my news present boxes that should be arriving any days now.
I Also have a dentist appointment. (all good) 🙂
I’m happy that we stay home this year, No train for twelve hours. ( My parents live in France and with the connections, waiting times, … it’s a twelve hours trip, door to doors.)
Cool / quite / resting Sunday, I’ll take the Christmas box from our storage, clean a bit, make pictures and just do a little Christmas composition with mini-trees, a mini deer, and some wooden Christmas characters to get the living room in the mood. I have to say that at this point I don’t have the Christmas feeling yet. No Christmas songs in my head.
Saturday! I finally have time to catch up with my project life. It’s scrapbook Time 🙂
You’ll recognize the beautiful cards from the Studio D.I.Y mini December kit.

I got a big order from the contemporary jewelry gallery Bettina Flament, I’m working all days in the studio to prepare all the pieces. On the left page, I used a 6 x 8 paper from the Studio DIY Mini December daily kit.
Today I’m gluing my statement heart brooches. I’m so in love with this statement huge plexiglass heart brooch.
Every time I wear one, my mood lift and leave no-one around me indifferent.
On the page, I wanted to spell: ‘brooch production’ but I ran out of space so it ended up beeing procductio. ( but it looks ok so that’s alright with me !)
Today, I’ve been busy in my studio, gluing hairpin, preparing orders… I didn’t have time to make a lot of pictures.
We celebrate ‘Sinterklaas’ in the Netherland. Most of the children get their presents today even if it tends to switch to Christmas ( or just doing both! )My boyfriend got a chocolate letter at work ( in December you can buy chocolate shapes into letters, so Sinterklaas can give you a chocolate with the first letter of your name, only if you’ve been a good ‘child’ this year. I wrote a post about the December’s festivities in the Netherlands if you’re interested the link is here.
A quiet Sunday, I glued some pins on my rock brooches, and in the evening we enjoyed a cheese fondue.

Saturday, December 3, I went to the Re-opening of UMMAH with a friend of mine, we ate cake and then went for a coffee in the Hallen. It was a crafty market happening where I found my first Christmas present, the one for my boyfriend. Only four to go on my list. Not much presents stress this year. 🙂
There is a lot of Lots of things to do, bring some new necklaces at UHMA and I bought the tree early in December so I can choose a beautiful one. I’m bringing it back home on my bike, and use the big glass windows of a building close to my place to make a cool selfie.It will wait outside in the garden until I’m ready to decorate it.
