What to do during a rainy day?

Today, I did a test on my craft room cabinet.

This is the result. It is not flat but emphasised. I will leave them white but you can paint them with the background colour.

 Now I must finish the second part, and last one of the desk! And it will be finished ! I did the primer and wait for it to dry.

While waiting I am sewing velvet pumpkins 🎃 I only found this blue velvet…and I made them with self drying clay, then I must paint them.

This is what it is going to look like before painting.

Keeping busy! 😆 

A Sunny and warm Monday

Yesterday, after we had an Autumn weather during two

Weeks the temperature is back to 27 degrees C!

On Saturday I went to my favourite Italian clothes shop where I had a good voucher. I found a dress, pullover and jeans for the winter…( if we have any winter!)

We also went to get planters for the windowsills. Last week I have bought heathers at IKEA and we arranged the planters yesterday with white cyclamens.

We also went to the garden center and had lunch in our favourite place and had lunch outside ( because of Covid ‘s come back)

On the same day we looked for me to be vaccinated, but without  any success. This morning my husband phoned me and I had to rush to get vaccinated ( not enough vaccines!) but now it’s done.

After doing house cleaning…

 

I found some nice velvet I saw two weeks ago at the fabric shop and made a simple pumpkin and one like the orange one ( trying to make this afternoon)

I also like decoupage. I had this frame and did not know what to do with it…

I made some découpage with an old Country Living issue.

This is the project, it has to be organised.

Still life.

This past weekend was busy, on Saturday we went to change our internet provider and it was laborious ! Tings go so quickly nowadays… I decided not to give up and subscribe to some courses to stay «  Connected ! »  and update my knowledge !

Mr L we to take the dog for a walk in the forest behind our home and brought some mushrooms for my Fall decoration and I went to the garden to get my little apples between two showers.

I also went to get a new pumpkin for my mantel decoration, I like the velvet shades.

I found the brooch nice for Autumn . During my holidays I bought this oversized coat and this cotton dress for mid seasons. They are both very confortable 

I knitted a snood to go with it.
 

Yesterday I cooked and baked , a crumble and a « Carbonade Flamande » typical dish from the north, beef meat cooked in beer with mustard on gingerbread usually with french fries, but we have it with steamed potatoes.

I know the recipe, but I saw it in « my magazine « Esprit d’ici » and it gave the idea to cook one.

It cooks for three hours but it so good!

I hope you enjoy your week!
