Blo-Ma

Tulips and grape hyacinths.

The last photo is a portrait of our family:

papa bunny, mama bunny 

and two girl bunnies.

Happy Easter!

Happy Birthday to me!

Well, I'm a few weeks late as usual, but anyway.

These were my birthday gifts for myself:

This cutie is Alice the White Rabbit.

She's made by Carol Birkeland-Green

of Bears of Bath.

This sweet baby dragon is Shenaya.

She's made by Andrea Maria Mazzitelli-Koehler

of Dreli-bears.

And the winner is...

I've been very lucky this spring.

I've won some wonderful stuff.

Take a look at these:

A wonderful Haunted Acorn by Becca Bilas

over at her blog Magikal Seasons.

A beautiful mixed media owl by

Alisa Steady over at the

Merry Whatever blog.

A lovely clutch by Red Weaver.

I've carried my knitting around all winter 

and spring in her fabulous bags.

And last but not least:

A gorgeous flower brooch by Debbie Luttrell

at her blog Nightmares and Day Dreams.

My Mother's Day gifts

I know I'm a bit late, as usual,

but here are my Mother's Day gifts:

Ronja gave me this happy cloud

and the sweet card below.

Mirja gave me this pretty card.

The flowers made me think of wood anemones.

No Mother's Day is perfect without jewelry!

Gorgeous sterling silver and turquoise necklace from

Bella-Bijou Jewellery.

Stunning sterling silver, cherry creek jasper

and prehnite necklace from

EON Design.

This is Zhou.

She came to me from Bears of Bath.

Carol Birkeland-Green 

makes such adorable bears!

Spring on my table

Santa has gone on a well deserved vacation

and the sheep and the horses

have taken over my kitchen table.

I love these animals from

Mama Gourds.

Early or late?

I never got around to decorate much for Christmas,

but I got this jolly Santa from

Mother's Dream Artworks.

He's still sitting on my kitchen table.

I guess I'll soon have to replace him with 

something more "spring".

Like these fun sheep from 

Mama Gourds.

We still have a lot of snow though, 

so I guess there's no hurry.

Happy Birthday, Mom!

Copper, sterling silver and amethyst pendant

by Louise O'Dwyer.

Beautiful hand painted box by Carolee Clark,

King of Mice Studios.

 We went to Porvoo on Saturday 

to celebrate mom's birthday. 

I gave her a small paisley pendant, 

a beautiful painted wooden box 

and two books by Jo Nesbo.
