I have this longing
to be creative
in me .
and in the last few years
that creativity has been captured
in doing very small things
Things that did not take a lot of organising
not a lot of place or materials
and also no budget so
it had to be done with the things
I collected during my life .
I guess I develloped a competence
to adjust to what's there
In the years there has been a lot
of stuf coming in my house and
since I am a keeper
my house is like a shop now-a-days .
I find things
lots of things
I can use now
to make
THINGS
I am in love with
small things that can hang
and move a little
by the movement in the environment
it has to be
delicate
light
and there has to be
involved
some glittering
some gold
and
bright colours
they have to hang free
where they can adjourn
and the place has to be somewhere
unexpected
like my latest project
little pendant-garlands
made of hearts
I punctured out of felt .
I used a golden yarn and
in between I used
little golden-glass-beats
they glimmer when moving
I wanted them for
hanging outside
in the sun
in a tree or somewhere
near where you like to sit
and muse .
because they were to
lightweight
I affixed a little stone
at the bottom
I wanted them to fit in little
boxes
so I could send them
in the mail .
and above all
I wanted to make them
to bring some joy .........
to all the wonderful friends
who have been there ( here )
for me during my years of pain
and above all
to celebrate my new two hips.
If you like to see
where one of my first ones
has been brought
take a look at the blog from
Happy week
for all of you
