one week left.....



Stenes änglar have already closed the shop for this season. Welcome back next summer




Ja, one week left of summer. Not that summer ends on the 1st of September, but it feels that way. It is getting darker, school has started, and fall storms have started.


So instead of starting new projects, I should finish up with the old.......



But that won't happen! New ideas keep popping in my head, I don't have time to do everything that I want to do. But just like with planning a trip, at least half of the fun is in the planning stages! Dreaming of the end result, hoping that it will better than you can imagine....

still summer

Yes it is still summer. So even tho vacation is over and I'm back to work where it is crazy as always, there are days off now and then when you can kick back and enjoy!





Make the most of the warm weather and try to be creative or lazy or what ever!

4th of July at Vätö



Another wonderful sunny and warm day! A little different 4th of July then at Door County, no parade, no cherry pie. No kids. MT is still at Peace and Love, ET down on Öland, WT guarding the house. Hope you all have a nice day!

Vätö vacation 2010


Finally I have vacation and direct out to Vätö! Pretty wasted as the weather is warm- like the good old midwest summers that I grew up with. Too hot to do anything but swim!

rosbord

Mitt rosbord finns i Amelia sommar tidningen! ok, it said it was of cement not concrete or "betong" and the price was wrong but really neat that it was there!
Catherine is so creative in fixing things up. Hon dukar såååå fint!(mom; she really sets a nice table!)



Now I am inspired to get going on some new projects!(my problem is once I have made something once or twice, I don't want to do it anymore!) But first is to get ready for Williams studenten! Cleaning and baking on my list!

may 2010



Well, now it's been so long that I almost forgot how to log in!So much going on as always this time of the year! This week is SVK klubbfest and next week is Williams graduation, and then the week after is Emily's. Trying to get the garden here at home presentable along with projects out at Vätö. And trying to get things ready to take to Högmarsö. And some orders coming in for bird bathes, etc! And normal work of course last on my list! The sign is for Stenes Änglar, kläd och inrednings butik at Högmarsö.






The hearts are to rest your eyes while waiting for the flowers to come up, my neighbor gave me "blommor för dagen"-morning glory? My orginal idea was to go with much bigger rebar but I couldn't get it in the car. Plus this being even less than half the height, it is very instable, not good as planned to use around our outside shower!

Spring cleaning?

What is this? Spring cleaning? a yard sale? No, this is a planning day for us. And this is just SOME of the stuff that we are going to use for our course next week at Herresta Lada. This is not a craft for the weak! Not only are the bags of concrete mix 25 kilos a piece, it also is very messy! And messy it is even before and after the "gooey" part of mixing.





Finally we have some spring like weather, sunny and warmish. Tho, that will change tonight as Valborgsmässafton is always cold, windy, and rainy! Happy Spring!
