Last minute

I know I promised to give you idea of how to use the pattern you download each day till Christmas.
But time is flying by, and did not let me post any, so here is one taken from my book : “Cartes, faire-part et billets doux” :

- Take off gently the wrapping paper around the chocolate, so you can use is as a model for the new one  that you will cut out from a nice printed pattern. Then close it with a bit of glue.

It’s such a piece of cake, that it doesn’t matter if you do it at the last minute… It will be the perfect final touch on your Christmas table !

Flowers

It’s been a while since the last “craft work”! So here is a new one to get back to practice.

Starting with only paper circles, you will create 3 different types of corolla-shaped flower! Here is the secret.
Use your imagination to create different flowers by assembly them. Then you only have to figure out where to put them. On your hat, in your hair, or on your “decolletage”?

Many thanks to my two interns : Maud for making the flowers and Véronique who let me shoot her for her last day of work !

“Beau” tie

It’s a great classic, but I am still crazy about what a little “bow tie” can do to the simple outfit. However, I don’t want to be too dressy. So my little bow ties are made of paper.

I wear them on a necklace and on my shoes…
What will you do with them ?

In the wind

But before leaving, she gives us one last origami lesson to learn how to make funny berlingots. Don’t you think it would make perfect favors?

She used a new pattern range. Could you guess how I choose to call it ? Kristina of course !
