Easter Ceramic... Coming Through!!!

OK guys .. you already know how crazy i am about white ceramic and i always love receiving presents that are ceramic related. So you think, how much better can it go?! right?!.. well it does go faaaaaar better than just that! I don't know if you figured out by now, but i also love animals.. so when the white ceramic items are also ceramic animals .. then i go totally goo goo :)

I know that the Easter is coming close already, so my husband thought why not giving me my Easter present earlier this year:)

So without further ado.. here's my Easter ceramic bunny :



Isn't he cute and all?
I find him so clean and white:) I just adore him right now.

How about you guys? Do you have any preference for ceramic objects? Or glass items?.. Anyone?!

Wrap it up

OK guys i won't keep it long today. I just wanted to share with you some crafts.. actually is not even crafts.. is just a DIY project i got started half an hour ago and i thought is cute enough to share:)

I always love me some white crunchy chocolate.. no, i am not keeping diets.. my physique is having its own self control.. i am just one of those happy people:P .. but as i was saying... crunchy chocolate always tickles my tastes.. and as we were having one around the house, i just went for it. But before eating it, it just hit me! The wrap was lame and depressing.. too commercial for my tastes.. look:

And so i thought i wanted something more cheerful.. so up to the decorating the chocolate i was.. (sounds weird right? decorating the chocolate?.. when in fact generally chocolate itself is used to make decorations, for Christmas and stuff.. but however this was my crazy thought at the moment and i went for it)

I opened the chocolate's wrapping box and i discovered this beautiful silver wrapping paper..



smth much better to work with, right? right...

Then i went through my wraps and found this striped pink patterned wrapping paper. I cut some of it and then wrap the chocolate over the silver wrapping thing. Look how it turned:



Pretty hot, right?
But i still felt like something was missing.. so it just popped into my head: a name tag sort of thingy!!! I just took a black pen and some white paper and i started doing swirls all over the edge.. and then... Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam!!!!:



Pretty cute right? Now i can give it away as a small host gift or so.. or even let it on my coffee table just for decor purposes.. or just eat it like a piggy:)

You get to choose! Tell me guys.. is this chocolate wrapping thing good enough to be eaten, to be used as decor or to be given away! Shoot me with choices:)

Flower Power !!!

Well I admit I am not quite the green thumb and sometimes i kill the sweet flowers in our home! The first ones who died on me where some Pansies i got from my husband right after we moved to our first rental. Here's how they were supposed to look like:



Then I received a red Christmas Star or Poinsettia.. but short after the Christmas she died..i don't know if she was supposed to or i just neglected her because of the moving out situation.


Now when i suffered her loss i said i will never buy plants who have flowers.. maybe that's the reason why they keep dieing on me. So we bought a Yucca(or at least i guess that's how it's called). I didn't know much about it, but i know that my best friend had one from her mom and she said then that they were pretty resistant and once they grow up, even if they grow so slow, they become a real tree indeed.. I didn't tend to believe her right then but when i saw this picture i knew she was right:


Hers looks kinda like this big right now:

We got two of these and they're quite healthy so far and still growing:D

I won't mention the bamboo i killed a few weeks ago by over watering it, or the seasonal flowers -tulips, blue-bells and daffodils- that i used to have(the seasonal ones aren't my fault.. they were supposed to last just a mnth or two..which they did). But I am still looking forward for the weather to get more stable here so i can buy some more plants now that i have 3 pots available from the seasonal flowers that died. SO i say bring on the weather I'll bring the bulbs(or seeds/or the plant already grown a little..whichever looks cooler;))

What about you ? Are you guys great with flowers or are you just the disaster i am? Dish the flower dirt!
