New Magnetic Memory Board

 Hi and Happy Friday to all!!!
Finally my new Magnetic Memory Board has been finished...YAY!!!!
I needed some cute and happy magnets to "stick" on  it and so...I made those "Flowers and Leaves" clothespins magnets and love the way they looks on the board.

 For the board, we bouhgt a sheet of iron and then my hubby painted it with a dark grey (almost black) paint. Then I glued a white ric rac all around and put 4 pieces of round felt on the back so the wall is safe...
Then I put a nice cord through the 2 holes on top of the sheet and hang it on the wall.
I bought some wool clothespins, hubby painted them with white paint, I made crochet flowers and crochet leaves and glue them on the pins.  I glued some magnets on the back of the pins and...voilà...this is the result!
I have to say that I love so much my new memory board, I think we did a nice job!
What do you think?
Happy Friday!!!!
HUGS, Dany

Happy Saturday!

Hi! I just have few minutes today... I'm in the middle of the change of season for clothes... Mmm...I really hate do it...wash all the winter clothes and put them away...clean and refresh all the furnitures, bring all the spring- summer clothes and iron them... It's really a big work, especially if you must do it during a wonderful week end like this one... So...while I'm doing it...I'll try to keep my mind away with some nice memories... For example, the picture above, was taken by me 2 years ago during our holidays to the south of France...what a nice time we have had... Hope you are having a more fun week end than mine...LOL!!! So...happy week end to all!!!

4 Seasons Swap: Spring


Hello!!!
How are you all today?
here it's a beautiful day, so warm and sunny, the perfect day for this post!!!
Well...I organized with my friends Nico, Chiara e Simo a 4 seasons swap as I already wrote fews posts ago.
Now...the Spring swap is already done...YAY!!!!!

I made for my friends those pretty crochet necklaces, I found an easy tutorial HERE and I've had so much fun crocheting and also packaging my lariats, including instructions about how to wear them!

And...those are the beauties I've got in the mail...



A wonderful and so spring-y decorate big size clothes pin from Chiara, it's soooo adorable!!!

A felt butterfly and flower from Simo. They are super cute and I'm thinking to use them for decorate my magnetic memory board (this will be another post!!!).

And...last but not least at all...a sooooo sweet and wonderfully smelling tiny spring bear from Nico! It's so cute and his wonderful smell is a mix of spices and mint I think...

Now...I can't wait for Summer Swap!!!

Thanks so much my Dear Friends, you really made my day!!!!!

Vi voglio bene ragazze!!!!!!
