For this sixth CC post
I think the pattern I was looking for is a crochet spiral technic
I had a great time playing with corrugated cardboards, fabric, clementine peel, strings, wood tiny stars.

First let's go to the garden...
After some windy days I always collect weeping willow branches on the ground. Some are good enough to make wreaths. Last year I made a large oval one.
Here are three small wreaths waiting to dry.
Tout d'abord faisons un petit tour dans le jardin pour ramasser des branches de saule pleureur tombées ces derniers jours parfaites pour fabriquer des couronnes
L'année dernière j'avais pu faire une grosse couronne ovale.
Là je confectionne trois petites qui vont devoir sécher un peu plus.
Dimanche dernier, nous sommes allés aux Tisséades de Blois, un petit marché aux tissus et mercerie. Voici quelques achats...
Last Sunday we went to a small fabric market in Blois, here are some of my purchases...
I'm back on my Christmas cards
an old pattern I made years ago, small cards making a tree shape
To use up a stock of round cards folded in half
I'm going to collect some foliage by dismantling an unused blue and silver decoration.
For this fourth CC post a project of homemade decoration I first thought I will make for Soline but I tested all my kits and even if my first attempt is the best I made I realise that the fully finish part won't be fun for a 10 years old little girl.
It's about weaving threads and wool in a Christmas bauble shape.
I made two more those past days in green and purple shades.
I told you on my CC wish list about a Christmas Junk Journal
I have a lot of fun making JJ and thought as I kept cards from family and friends, some nice illustrations or funny ads, it could be nice to present them in a journal.So first collect papers, envelops and all supports I can find to make some signatures.
Then search in all my boxes and gather cards, tags, stamps, santas, photos, booklets, family memories.
I'd like to use the journal to keep them safe in the same place and consult it during the holidays.
Perfect place too to keep list of Christmas movies, songs, DIY tutos...
Je m'adonne au Junk Journaling depuis quelques temps avec un grand bonheur. Cela m'a donné l'idée de confectionner un JJ sur le thème de Noël, il sera parfait pour mettre en valeur les cartes, documents, photos et autres illustrations que je conserve depuis longtemps.
Je pourrais y conserver mes tutos de bricolages, des listes de films et chansons préférés.
Cette fois-ci je vais préparer ma reliure avant de fixer les feuilles. Perforations du dos, collage de ouate sous le tissu de couverture.
