January 2011 ...Nouvelle

Something I thought I posted at the beginning of the year...but just found...

January 2012...

A new me, just woke up....
a New me has risen...
Somehow this year started with tears...some tears of regreat, some tears of letting go, some came because of a new chance of making things different..and others showing I am growing up...

There has been definitely a change...last year I began as a different person, this year..I am still changing...
Some things I did't see before, now have appeared to me..things that needed to be broken and made new...

I received the year dancing...and did't had the chance to eat...but I sure laughed

Tips for this year...more fiber...
More exercise!

Now I understand what people meant when they said...enjoy the moment...I never really enjoyed a moment as if it was the last...didn't let myself enjoy the minutes and hours as if there was nothing to worry about.

Tip....Disconnect your cellphone for a while! Enjoy life...enjoy food! enjoy eating with your left hand while holding hands with someone you love!!!

Enjoy your tears...for they are a blessing...a way we cleanse...a way we heal...remember the heart doesn't stay broken forever...it always finds a way to heal.

Enjoy dancing under the stars and singing to the moon. Also try singing in the bathroom...even if it is in a restaurant or a public place.

Don't mind others staring at you or others judging you....it's your own life...it's ok to make wrong choices...because if your heart is true...and you are looking for the right things in the wrong place...God will help you find your way.

Always have faith, always have hope. Even when you are lost...don't lie to yourself...listen what the wind around you is saying, never stop asking God for guidance.

"I will never forget how my heart jumped the first time we hugged".

Struggling between what I want and what I am meat to do...is not  new thing for me...always wanted to do the right thing...watching every footstep..so that everything is right...and perfect...but my heart is broken in two.

A friend said, it's good to dream and think of a future, I am dreaming and thinking about a future..I AM A DREAMER

Baby Blue and Green Flowers

Today I'm super exited! It is my best friend's  Baby shower!!!

I've been preparing for weeks with friends and her family...planing...scheduling...etc.
I forgot how much I love doing projects! especially the ones that involve handcrafts!
It's one of my passion...
....

When I was a little girl I remember that on summer vacations I would do a project, which sometimes ended up into a business. like selling hand make jewelry...which gave me enough money y to buy my first car!

Other times I would paint ...once I even painted a window which leaded to a field of butterflies...all drawn and painted in my bedroom's wall.

.....

Back at the Baby shower....The weeks passed and the number of people started to grow. At first my idea was some friend and family...then suddenly....a Facebook event was created and lots of women were attending to the event....which by the way...was in my house!!

I spend almost every evening doing the decorations, while watching some tv.

These were the decorations I came with...







A day before the event, I bought flowers and did this cute "stations" where I placed a flower bouquet, a candle and another ornament.

The flower bouquets were very easy to make. 

1. Select the flowers you like...I found these lovely ones in my local market

This flowers look like daisies and roses.
I really love the combination of the green flowers with the tiny white and caramel ones.

2. Use glass jars and vases from marmalades, milk, salt, pepper, nutella, olive oil, etc.

3. Cut the flowers depending the size on the jar and arrange them in a stylish way.

4. The final touch...tie a string around the upper side of the jar.

5. A cute way to arrange them is to place different sizes of bouquets together.




When the day finally came, I was super exited! My friends family came early and started with the food decorations which look perfectly with my decorations. So this is what the shower looked like:


Photographs of the lovely couple! Hanging on a string!








Lots of love made this possible...
