Cross Stich Crazy - Emma

My niece Emma (9 years old) was featured in 

Cross Stitch Crazy (September issue - 232).

As a thank you for sending a photo

she received a Fiskars scissors.

Matryoska Keyring

I have stitched a little Matryoska (a Russian doll).

This wooden keyring was a free gift by Cross Stitcher Magazine.

I changed the colour of the rose.

Have a nice day

Summers at the Lake - Part 1

Here is a photo of my new project.

The name of the chart is Summer at the Lake and is designed by 

Vicki Hastings - The Cricket Collection (No. 314).

I stiched on a green vintage Aida fabric (14 count) by Zweigart.

Anchor Tag / My Nautical Bottle

Stitched this little anchor designed 

by Veronique Enginger.

Last year I bought this little blue bottle for € 1,99 (Zeeman). 

I like glass buoys but everything what I found 

was to expensive (about € 30,00 and more).

My problem is that some of the tenants are not vey careful with 

the decoration/accessoires!

I will not buy every week new decoration / accessoires for my chalet so I have to find cheaper ones which I can pimp (that is a real challenge).

Jolly Roger Lamp - Part 2

Finished my Jolly Roger.

I put it on a cream lampshape and added a little parrot

which I found for just € 1,00 

(there is no pirat without a parrot).

I really like it!

Greatings from the Belgium seaside!
