My December days (and I'm glad it's over)

-


A dear colleague but mostly a dear friend gave me this advent calendar with personalized mini presents init! Such as: lots of cute washi tapes, hair scrunchies, boba tea earrings, an avocado pins, and so on! Thank you so so much, I`ve enjoyed opening each box each day! These boxes also makes a great Christmas decoration at home.
More x-mas deco
We never do Christmas trees. We just never have. We do have mini x-mas trees. My decorations are overall minimalistic and small.
Followed by a Chrismas brunch. I`ve bought bread and buns from my favourite local bakery.
Don`t worry I did not store bought everything, I did baked something!
On the same day, my best friend and her sister and mum came over for a drink, good chats and we had a fun little game night too!
Tapas, wine and Cards against Humanity.
Sweet words

EN It’s holidays and Liberation Days in The Netherlands and with all these delicious day offs, I’ve finally got more time to do my yarn works. And yes sleeping in late is also great. But mostly I’ve been really productive with my yarn works, whereas the most recent ones - the puff pastry/Danish I have received a fair amount of likes and sweet comments on my social media. Thank you! Being productive means also I take effort and time in perfecting my yarn works but not too hard to make luckily! Especially the snail rolls (cinnamon rolls/pain aux raisin) are really easy and fun to make. And because sharing is caring, I’m sharing you my little secret of making these crochet cinnamon rolls!    NL Heerlijk de meivakantie met al die vrije dagen kan ik lekker ongestoord op mijn haak werkjes storten.
