when i was in school and we had summer holidays my mum, my sister and i always went for vacation at my grandmothers house. it’s right next to the forest. when you wake up you drink the worst coffee but you love it because you can drink it in the garden, surrounded by many different sorts of flowers and plants. you could wander through the garden and have a whole meal just made out of berries and other fruit. before lunch we’de go into the forest and look for mushrooms. we spent hours between tall trees and on the ground finding blueberries and wild raspberries. my sister and i built tipies out of fallen branches and played wild kids.

i miss that.

i now there are woods around vienna… but it’s just not the same. i want my forest, with my mushrooms, my trees and my fern. selfish but true.

today i feel like a fox, a tired fox but still…

maybe because i bought this cute fox-print blouse with it’s fancy black peter-pan collar yesterday ;)

AND i found out that it’s possible to follow my blog with Bloglovin do you use this feature?

sorry for the lack of news… i keep myself busy with sports and my friends whom i’d like to thank for being patient with me. i can’t force myself to pic up my camera yet.

some weeks ago there was a mouse in my flat, she was to fast. last night she woke me at 2am because she ate my chocolat… somehow i managed to trap her and put her through my window onto the roof…(i was gentle) with the chocolate.. so i guess she had a good meal after all. hope she stays away now.

so much animal fun today

final product of today’s diy

remember when i made the dinosaur necklace but forgot to take pictures? well this time i didn’t ;)

you need: tiny plastic animals, i bought mine really cheep at müller but any toyshop will do, tiny eye bolts and spray paint in colours you like. oh and some masking tape if you want your little fellows to be bichrome.

1. start with screwing the bolts into your animals back

2. spray paint the animals. first one side, dry, and than the other side. be sure to do this in a ventilated room!

3. apply some masking tape on the parts you don’t want to get repainted.

4. paint and let them dry again.

put the animal on a necklace and you’re already done! this took me about 2 hours but only because of the dry spell.

i hope you’ll have as much fun as i did. i especially love that my golden giraffe now wears pink boots! who new giraffes could be this chick?

obsessing about tiny plastic animals lately… and i feel spring all around me. makes my mind wander!
