Spring

Spring in the air on my instagram. Oh and a few glimpses from Easter too.

Planted tiny strawberry plants

There used to be a forest...

Signs of spring

The Easter that was

Made a yummy lemon cake for easter.

It is gone

the summer. I really feel I didn't have time to enjoy it much this year. Due to all the wedding planning. After our honeymoon I started working at my new job. Many changes under a short time! I think I have been able to keep up with it fairly good though. The summer in my garden.

On it's way somewhere

I'm participating in a photograph challenge. The theme (free translation from English): On it's way somewhere. I found these guys in the garden, all on their way somewhere. I was quite amazed by the pattern on the frog in the first pic!

Changes

Spring came and summer is here. I've had a crazy spring. I mean really crazy. I wrote my masters thesis, had my last exams and last week I got my masters degree! I did it! Studying full time and working part time have been really crazy. Now it feels kind of empty. Nothing to study and no work to go to anymore. For the first time in my life I'm unemployed. I don't get to continue at my old work because I'm overqualified now. It's scary but a nice feeling of freedom too!

The wonderful thing about this situation is that I finally have time to create again. And blog and photograph more! 

The first snow

I love winter. On Thursday evening we got this winter's first snow. I just wanted to go out and make snow angels in the snow. Instead I took my camera out on Friday morning to take photos of our winter wonderland. 

Still some autumn leaves left. Was going to pick mushrooms this weekend, but not really possible now. Went for a long forest walk with the dogs instead. 

Have a wonderful Saturday!

Enjoying summer

So I'm enjoying summer. Not blogging much. But really why sit in front of the computer when you can be outside picking berries, walking in the forest or just relaxing in the sun with a cup of coffee! Well I'm also preparing for a craft fair, more info to follow later. It's in July and I'm crazy busy preparing for that one!

We have a lot of wild strawberries in our garden. They are really the best while eaten fresh and warmed by the sun. We have so much though so I've even saved some for the winter.

A month of craft photos: 05. Notions

My pin cushion, hand made by myself of course. In the back my pouch where I keep amigurumi supplies eyes and such.

Have a lovely Saturday!

Editing photos

All photos that I put on my blog or on Etsy are edited. Some more some less. I use Photoshop most of the time because it is fast and you can do so much! I only have basic skills and I'm sure you can do even more than I know of. I've also used Picnik a lot because there was fun effects and fonts that you can use. Picnik is gone but the other day I found FotoFlexer. It is even better and free! Just wanted to recommend that site for you guys!

A moth of craft photos

I found this fun challenge through Yarn Madness, originally from Untangling knots. I'm up for it! Trying to use my camera a lot more than I'm doing right now and this is a great way to do that I think! Anyone else up for it?

I'm starting tomorrow, will do them one by one. Not sure if I manage to make one post every day for a month but I'll do my best.
