Five

 Since it is a wedding which is a special occasion and I love to make scrapbooks of memories we decided to make the greeting book a bit more complicated.

I have decorated the front and glued (I used up all my glue!) different colored paper and other things we are using for the wedding into the book.

The idea is that the guest write messages in it and later we will add photos of the day in between.

This is something you'd think would not necesarrily take that much time but I spent a few hours happily gluing things onto the pages until the glue was used up. I don't think the guest needs more pages to write on, but if I have enough time, (and glue) I might do the remainder of the pages.

Sorry about the blurry photos, but boyfriend and I had a busy day today and so todays post got a little delayed. (I mean I had to finish the book, or in this case the glue).

 We voted and had a chat with the photographer and managed to squeeze in a shopping trip to buy some of the drinks for the wedding. We were lucky enough to borrow a car while the owner was working so we did as much as we had time for. 

I did decide to bead the neck ruffle, but I decided it needed some blocking first, so I am busy doing that. I hope I can start attaching more beads tomorrow.

But since I couldn't do what I had planned for today, you know the beading, I got a little crazy. Or maybe a lot crazy. A bit too much crazy according to boyfriend.

I have started a (two) shawl(s), and yes, the idea was for the wedding... But I know I am not that crazy and could possibly do only one shawl in time.

But then I would have to make a decision, and you know how good I am with those?

You´re a winner

I am sorry for being absent for a bit, I know I said I would check who won my giveaway ages ago, but since there was only one applicant  I was waiting to see if anyone else wanted to join, but since there was only one there could only be one winner! So lucky Virpi won and gets to choose which of the three prizes she wants and I will send it to her soon:)

The rest of the gifts (and more) will go in my next giveaway next month when I have my blogoversary, so stay tuned!

I am busy making flowers for the special day and I think I may soon have enough! All the yarn-ends have been voven in finally.

The last side panel of the dress is coming along, and then there is only small adjustments and embellishing left.

And I am busy making decorations, I hope I will have enough time to make the rest, but it won't be the end of the world if I don't finish.

Oh, and happy birthday to my friend, I hope to see you soon!

Virpi send me an email with your address because I forgot.

17.Mai er vi så glad i

The title is from a norwegian song, that I used to sing on 17th of May.

Today we celebrate the National day in Norway. This is a picture from work. I adore this little dresser and its colours. I really want it. Look how the knobs don't match.

 Endearing. But sadly it is not for sale:(

I've done a little on Henry, but I still have not ripped out the part that is wrong. Since it is only on the inside of the Tudor rose and not on top I just continued over. I have now done a little bit more on it since the picture too. 

I promised to show you a sneak-peek of my prizes for the giveaway, so here goes. I might find some more goodies too.  Only two more followers to go!

In the end I want to show you a picture from when she got a new tunnel, which she still has not figured out and is only used for nibbling on.

(oh, and for my english speaking readers, I think I have managed to make my blog easier for you now as it is in English? Or at least should be)

(and I am sorry, no Friday- freebies for a while I think, as life is getting in the way)
