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

  This is what I choose to wear for the first day of winter.Shirt under turteneck? What can I do, I love collars. It was a warm and cozy outfit.  Contrary to what you might expect the first day of winter was quite sunny. It almost felt like spring on this bridge that is still under construction.  Ovo je moj izbor za prvi dan zime. Košulja ispod dolčevite?...što mogu kad volim ovratnike (kolete, kragne kako tko kaže). Bila je to topla i udobna kombinacija, a unatoč onome što bi se moglo očekivati prvi dan zime bio je jako sunčan. Skoro sam imala osjećaj da je proljeće na ovom mostu koji se još u izgradnji.

This jar I have decorated a few days ago. The process was fairly simple, I just glued some things on it to make it looks nicer and almost forgot about it. However, today I realized that it could be a great cookie jar! So, all that I had to do was to put some freshly baked cookies in it! On the photos, you can also see this jar it placed between two DIY Christmas jars that I made a few days ago (and posted about them) because I liked how the candle light makes this cookies look magical. Ovu sam staklenku ukrasila prije par dana tako da sam zalijepila neke stvarčice na nju da ljepše izgleda i skoro zaboravila na nju, ali danas sam je se sjetila i shvatila kako bi mogla biti sjajna staklenka za kolače. Sve što sam trebala je staviti svježe ispečene kolače u nju. Na fotografijama možete je vidjeti stavljenu između dva božična svijećnjaka (napravljena od staklenki ukrašenih salvetama)jer mi se sviđa kako od ovog crvenkastog svjetla kolači izgledaju nekako čarobno.

So much baking to do, so little time...Toliko kolača za ispeći, a tako malo vremena...

Christmas...so little time, so many possibilities....so little time, so many ways to express your creativity. Božično vrijeme...tako malo vremena, tako puno mogućnosti...toliko načina za izraziti svoju  kreativnost.

No, I haven't decorated the Christmas tree yet (you're looking at last year photos). However, I have made a lot of home made decorations this year. I do hope I will have the chance to show them to you soon. What about you? Are you feeling the holiday spirit or are you starting to feel nervous because all of the things on the "to do" list? I have to admit I'm starting to feel nervous which is a shame because really shouldn't holidays be there for us to relax? Ne, nisam još okitila bor (ovo su prošlogodišnje fotke.) No, napravila sam ove godine puno božičnih ukrasa i nadam se da ću imati priliku podijeliti ih sa vama. Jeste li se vi uživjeli u duh blagdana? Ili ste možda (kao ja) nervozni zbog svega što još morate napraviti? To je zapravo šteta, jer bi bladani trebali biti tu da se opustimo, a mi (žene pogotovo) previše se brinemo oko toga da sve bude savršeno.

a reflection  For whatever reason (I simply wouldn't know) this place has been closed. Shortly after, vandals destroyed most of it. Is it a reflection of our society? or reflection of human nature? or the reflection of that famous law of physics (the law of entropy) that say all things tend to destruct and all order ends with disorder? Why is it takes so much effort to create something and it takes so little for all of it to disappear. I simply wouldn't know. If you look at the first photo closely you will see my reflection. It used to be my one of my favourite places to drink coffee (primarily because of the location and the view). Such a shame! Iz kojeg kod razloga ovo je mjesto zatvoreno (pitanje koncesije plaže, poreza stvarno ne bi znala.) Nedugo nakon vandali su uništili većinu toga. Odraz našeg društva? Odraz ljudske prirode? Odraz poznatog zakona fizike (zakona entropija) koji kaže da sve stvari teže raspadanju i da red uvijek završava neredom? Zašto je tako teško...
