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 

Lia

Happy week 

for all of you
