Click here to listen Hello! That little bar up there is me talking to you. It is a little test to see if it works. I got a little microphone a couple of weeks ago because I love the idea of talking to you directly. If everything works well, then I will be able to communicate with you throu...

Happy Holidays from the Horbergs!
Today my main mission was taking a picture of Natalie and Diego in order to send it to family and friends for the Holidays. I asked Diego to put on his "fancy" jacket and he said: But my jacket is only for when I get married! Meaning that he only wears his jacket for parties, including wedding...

Here are some happy child-related finds that came our way over the past week: 1) This is a beautiful little painting named 'Keira in the blue dress', by Jennie De Groot who blogs here at The Distracted Painter. She wrote to me a while ago, asking if I'd mind if she used this picture of...
It is difficult to be patient with older people as much as we should be at least. Every time you are impatient try to remember that before long we are going to be in their place. Also think that from now on your husband will have to put up with your mum every day so you can just be patient with his for a couple of days every year. I hope you don't mind me saying all this. Just to help you with words from far away. I know reality is much more difficult for those who face it!AriadnefromGreece!

second-hand finds
Here are some of the things i bought second-hand during November. I love to go flea-market and op-shopping very much. But these days I think pretty hard before I buy things, because I'm aware of how many things I already have. Also, how many things I have that I don't really use. You know ...

Pop, pock, pull. Repeat
Today's (school day) activity : making popcorn garland(s) for the tree. I popped some corn before they came back from school, and I started stringing some, because let's face it, it's a somehow easy activity, but which requires a lot of patience, which my sons don't have much when they come back...

Today's activity is simple & easy, and allows you to re-use past years' Christmas cards. I decided to go for Martha's paper globes. Simply cut your card into strips of equal width, make a hole with a punch at the extremeties, and insert a paper fastener (brad) in each hole. Bend the stack into a...

i saw three walnut ships come sailing in
well more than three but you get the idea it was a little walnut cracking, emptying, nibbling, beeswax melting, wick placing, wax pouring assembly line last weekend for little gifts and a safer floating garden version of this centerpiece
Unbelievable how things we consider useless as they are abandant here under pine trees, you receive them as a gift, appreciate them and then reuse them to create crafts and great photos! That's the epitomy of why your blog has inspired me so much all these years!AriadnefromGreece!
