The journals packaging. These two fabric journals are ready to leave us and go to their new home. I always use craft paperbags (not shown on the picture), tie with string and then put a journal into bubble envelope. Also I add a pretty bookmark.

Once a week I keep a journal about all coming and sent orders. On the picture there are more journals, only one of them is mine :)

What a nice day today! It was sunny too. The little interview with me is published in moncy3 blog. Many thanks to Claudia! :) 

And the couple words about picture, this is a cuff bracelet beaded in peyote stitch technique. The design is based from the fabric pattern. May be I will show my dress, sewed from that fabric, later.

how we make journals

- This journal will be so pretty, I think that is great for a little princess.
- Yes, it will be pretty and girly.
- So what kind of the paper we will use?
- Hmm, I think that this white squared paper.
- I'm not sure, I think that princess wants drawing in the journal, so we fill the journal with the white blank paper.
- May be the lined paper is better? What if princess wants not only draw, but try to write too?
- Hmm, you're right..

The journal is filled with lined paper, icluded some pages of pink color paper and white blank paper.

el rubio de Estonia

We were traveled in Spain last year with my son. "El rubio! Muy bonito chico! Que hermoso!" - said spanish women*. And I was very pleased, as any mum, if you say that her child is so beautiful and cute. Now we always say "bonito rubio" when son is washed, coiffured and obedient his parents.

* The blond! Very nice boy! How beautiful!

recycled envelope journal

This journal was made to order. Used leftover fabric pieces. The cover keep closed with a thread that wraps around a stick shape button. 

The journal is thick and filled with different kinds of paper: color paper, craft paper, brown paper, blank and squared paper, paper that is stained with cofee... 

...and recycled envelopes. There are about 30 different envelopes. So it is possible to keep things inside there.
