Tower
Sometimes in the packing process, vignettes just happen - like this little tower
I bought the Dalahorse in Sweden when I was a kid - long before they became all the rage
on the Internet (actually, long before we had heard about the Internet). It's a nice
souvenir from the family summer trips we took with our old, battered VW Beetle.
The red box is from a local Salvation Army store. I use all kinds of boxes to
organize my supplies and tools. It's really practical - and it looks pretty, too.

Outside
Another day of packing - which means another day inside the apartment
...but at least I caught this beautiul feather before it continued its journey with the wind.
I'm so busy getting ready with everything, and it's easy to forget the outside world.
So yesterday, I abandoned my boxes in favour of a milonga with my tango friends.
Just a tiny breath of normality...

Vignette
This is making me happy today: my beloved Sophie Conran bowl on the coffee table.
Every day, I'm trying to create spots of normality amidst the ever-changing packing chaos.

August
My apartment today: banana boxes, disorder, and a calendar that says: 14 days to go!
(my calendar is by Gaëlle Boissonnard - she's been my favourite artist for many years)

G is for...
I was invited to a dinner party the other day, and I made a couple of pins for the girls
(whose names both start with a G). These are the tiniest gifts I've ever wrapped...
These photos were taken with my iPhone and edited with the VSCO CAM app, which I
just discovered via this post, written by Rach at the lovely Penelope and Pip blog.

Almost summer
The last weeks have been absolutely crazy, but I'm still here
- even though I've had to put my creative life on the shelf for a while.
This weekend, I left everything and went to see my mum
(as we do when we need to collect our thoughts a bit).
It was a beautiful summer weekend:
You can view these photos and a couple more at my Instagram page!

Dear Demoiselle on Twitter
I signed up for Twitter today - here's my page:
https://twitter.com/DearDemoiselle
I'll be using it to share my blog and shop updates, so it'll be a bit like my
Facebook fan page in this respect, but I'll also post links to nice things
I discover on the Internet. Maybe you'd like to follow Dear Demoiselle?

with other Etsy artists who also are inspired by tango. Below is the start of my
story - you can read the rest of the story here at Diana's blog ArtBead.lv

Sneak peek: tango shoe cards
I got the cards back from the printing shop today, and I'm so happy with the result.
Here's a quick snapshot to give you an idea how the cards look like:
The cards are printed on a beautiful, cream-coloured drawing paper. They're double,
and will come with envelopes that I make myself. So this weekend will be filled with
envelope making and styling / photographing for the new shop addition.
Happy weekend!

Soon in my Etsy shop
My "The Tango Shoe Is Dreaming" collages are getting a lot of hearts on Etsy
(or at least it seems like a lot for a newbie like myself)
I'm very fond of this design, so I've decided to make cards as well.
I just finished the first drawing that will be scanned and printed for the cards.
The cards will be available in my Etsy shop soon!
