DIY Crystal Shelf

This was really easy and fun to create!!! I went outside to collect twigs in the backyard..
* you need 4 x 23 cm, 4 x 15 cm, 4 x 7 cm lengths of twigs
* glue gun
* start off with 2 23 cm and put a 15 cm on bottom to start off the shelf
* then you just keep adding all 4 twigs on bottom and all 4 smaller twigs on the top part
* then you put on the back part using the other 2 23 cm twigs
* finish off with twisting a piece of rope on top part
Thanks to Jasmin Lunar for giving me this groovy project idea!!
My room is so cozy with the sunlight coming in..

Age of Aquarius

Just recently I wore this dress with my boho hippie coat and black floppy sunflower hat and a guy came up to me and said "you look like you came out of Woodstock 69!".  That was the best compliment ever!!!

DIY Boho Moon Holder

It took me hours to wrap yarn around the plastic moon holder, but I love it a lot!!! I do not like the look of plastic, this makes it a lot more boho and it was very easy to do, you can actually cover any plastic with yarn and all you need is a glue gun to seal it.

Boho/Nordic Christmas Trees

the colour scheme this year is green and gold with boho stuff added here and there.  This is the first time we put up the trees really early in November, we usually waited until end of this month to put them up but because we can't really go anywhere, this cheered us up!!  The other tree is one that we had for years, and we decorated it traditional and Nordic. I think both trees look very pretty! I also made snowflakes out of construction paper..very easy to do when you follow instructions online.

yoga mystic

Enjoyed the last days of summer in November by pretending I was going to an outdoor hippie festival. It makes a lot of difference to me when the sun is out and it's warm outside!! I feel creative and energetic.. I created another painting..this one is called Yoga Mystic.  And I made a friend with a woolly bear.  I haven't seen these all summer and all of a sudden in November, I found one. This one was quite friendly and I placed the woolly somewhere safe.  Now the sun has disappeared and we have hurricane-like winds, its pouring, and its grey and this kind of weather has a huge impact on me.  I get totally lazy and I sleep in late.  So, to combat the ungroovy vibes, we decorated two Christmas trees yesterday and danced to Christmas music and felt a whole lot better!! However, I long for hot climate with groovy palm trees and the sun in my face.

Summer In November

Warm sunshine day out in the forest, lake and park with my friend Lily.  It felt great to be out in nature again!! I wish the whole winter would be summer temperatures! I felt like a woodland fairy.

Hippie Green Beans For Dinner!

Vegan/Vegetarian yumminess!! Cook the green beans in sunflower oil with salt, pepper, and curry, serve on whole wheat bread and top off with dijon mustard (not sure if this is vegan?? probably not..oh well..so I cheated a bit here..haha!) It's so simple and healthy!!

How To Make Bohemian Furry Pillows

I used an old throw and measured it for the center and then cut it in half..and turned them inside out.
Then I took a large pillow and cut closer around it to shape it better, and used light coloured thread..
I handsewed it since my sewing machine broke down, it wasn't that difficult to actually make them, although this was very time-consuming!! But the end result was boho amazing!!
