my creative space




at home this week. halloween decor all by her. collecting leaves included
  
heard on the halloween evening when going trick or treating with 4 nice & polite teen girls....
the girls, cheerful, in one voice : good evening ! trick or treat !
man opening door with candy bowl in his hand, not saying hi : oh but you're teenagers. i don't give candies to teenagers
the girls : why is that, sir ?
man, putting candy bowl back on the entryway table : some teenagers ruined one of my flowerbeds last year. i hate them now.
the girls : but it was not us ! we would never do that !
man slamming door : i don't care, you all teens in the same basket.
the girls staring at each other with lots of ????? on their faces.
huh. no comment.

new alpaca shawlette for an order. thinking of a small serie for my shop...

  9. I love teenagers! and I love your daughter's very stylish costume, and the shawl. I'm trying to decide whether I want to make a cardigan or a shawl as next project, as I found some very nice patterns - though, really, I should first complete what I have going already! Happy weekend!

  10. Halloween looks very elegant from your home!

    And I do not understand grumpy people who do not appreciate teenagers-- perhaps they were wretched ones themselves...

  14. We live in a two family house, and the lady among us has also opened the door and thought that small children get sweets - big kids get nothing from it. Stupid.

    Did you get my email?

    Have a nice day!

  17. It almost hurts us moms more I think when someone is rude to our children. At least I know I wish I could offer my children a perfect world...but that of course is just a dream and they are immensely tougher than we can imagine.
    Anyway... Her costume is absolutely lovely! And so is your shawl, I can imagine you would have much success with a series of those in your shop. Get well soon and happy weekend! xo Karen
