a little place to call my own (art and fashion blog)

I do understand what Rena said about Christmas coming too soon. It was only today that I have finished my advent wealth and the first candle lighting was due last Sunday. Christmas will be here in no time! Anyhow, I have decided to use the last year advent wealth. I've just bought new candles (white) and added some new decorations in it ( plus silver spray and little touches like that). Stvarno razumijem što je Rena rekla o prebrzom dolasku Božića. Tek sam danas završila svoj advenski vijenac, a paljenje svijeća (to jest prve svijeće) je bilo prošlu nedjelju. Božić će ovdje biti za čas! Kakogod, odlučila sam iskoristiti prošlogodišnji vijenac. Samo sam kupila nove svijeće (bijele) i stavila ih na postolja, pa malo posprejala sa srebrnim sprejem i dodala neke decoracije.   After decorating process was over, the advent wealth still looked a little dull to me, so I have decided to draw little Christmas three on the candles. This is how it turned out. Nakon tih sitn...

My sister in law made this advent wreath. Her dad made made the foundation (or base however you want to call it) for it (by attaching two pieces of  wood), the rest she had made herself. She had used two vine glasses as candle holders. I think it looks amazing, very modern and original. I like the fact that she used pink candles (and decorated them herself) instead of the usual red ones. With a little spray and imagination (most of the DIY things she already had at home) it is really fascinating what you can do. Ovaj adventski vijenac je napravila moja nevjesta. Postolje je od drva i njega je učvrstio njen otac, ostalo je sve sama napravila. Dvije čaše za vino poslužile su kao svijećnjaci. Mislim da odlično izgleda, jako moderno i orginalno. Sviđa mi se što je upotrijebila roze svijeće (i sama ih ukrasila) umjesto uobičajenih crvenih. Sa malo spreja i mašte (većinu ovih ukrasa imali smo kod kuće) stvarno je zanimljivo što se može napraviti.
