S"il vous Plait



Happy Monday - I hope you had a wonderful weekend and a Happy Easter! I had a couple of days off and decided to enjoy them computer free. I love my laptop and blogging, but a break sure feels good. I've also been busy packing because I'm moving! Not a big move (more like an economical move) but it still requires sorting, wrapping and packing up all my belongings. I'll have a couple more whirlwind days before settling in, but I'm very excited!

I'm also excited about the lovely fashions by LauraLaura. They source the best second-hand 100% wool knitwear to hand embroider thoughts and create unique accessories from the forgotten. I love the idea and results - check out more fashions and accessories here.

How are things going? I'm looking forward to catching up!

  1. This is wonderful! I have a few slightly moth-chewed sweaters ... and I wonder if I could take up embroidery and make something like this. Thanks for the idea. And Happy Easter, Diana.

  9. The clothes are super cute. Good lukc with your move. I've always enjoyed moving - the chance to go through every last one of your belongings, taking inventory and a new space to put them all in.

  12. Yes...I've been taking weekend computer sabbaticals. 'Cause my house is starting to look a little craptacular, and there's soooo much I'm missing out on in the outside world!

    That said, happy to be back to see sweaters like these! Oh MY...and by LauraLaura. Clearly with that name she's fabulous. ;-)

    Good luck with the move!
