Serendipity in flickr _Descubrimientos fortuitos en flickr

Today after uploading some picts to my flickr account I had a look at my contacts and I couldn´t believe what I saw.

One of my contacts happens to be friends to and old friend of mine. I lost contact with him a long time ago, he used to be the boyfriend of another friend of mine.

Time passed I moved to Italy, went back to Spain and now I´m in England. I wrote to this contact we have in common telling her the story and giving her my phone number in case he wants to contact me.

Do you think he will call??? We used to laugh a lot together! Besides, I will be in my city next week, just perfect to see him again.


Changing subject: I have been doing some more craft: these earrings, from a lime murrine. It´s is the 2nd lime murrine I make, the 1st one wasn´t this perfect. I made these earrings for myself and have some more to sell too.


I also made this muffins, just for chocolate addicts like me!!!!!!!!!



it´s been a busy week with swaps and creations, finally lamariposaverde got what I send ther:

Hoy, tras subir algunas fotos a mi flickr , estaba echando un vistazo a las fotos de mis contactos y no podía creer lo que mis ojos veían.

Uno de mis contactos resulta ser amiga de un viejo amigo mío. Perdí el contacto con este chico hace mucho tiempo, solia ser el novio de otro amigo mío.

El tiempo pasó, me mudé a Italia, volví a España, y ahora estoy en Inglaterra. Le he escrito a este contacto de flickr dándole mi tlf y contándole la historia por si se quiere poner en contacto conmigo.

¿Creeis que llamará? Solíamos salir juntos y nos reíamos tanto.... Además estaré en mi ciudad la semana que viene!!!!!

Cambiando de tema, ha sido un periodo agetreado: swaps, creaciones---


Estos son unos pendientes sacados de una murrina de limas. Es la segunda que hago, la primera no me salió tan perfecta. Luego les pinté los ojitos y la boca.


También hice estas magdalenas de chocolate, sólo para gente muy dulce, chocolateros como yo!!!!!



¡Ah! Y por fin le llegó mi swap a La mariposa verde.

Bueno, ya sabeis que si os gusta algo de lo que veis aquí podeis informaros en oletuscolores@gmail.com. Estaré encantada de contestaros y resolver vuestras dudas.

Back to crafting

Hi again after a long long break.

I have been very busy lately, as I got a new job in a high school. It is very strange, because I have been wanting a job for such a long time, I just moved to the UK 7 months ago (in summer) and it has been difficult to get the "job thing" started. Finally it happend, and it is a good school .... but it happens to have some very badly organised departments (i.e. mine). I am struggling to get myself integrated, to catch up with the syllabus, understanding the many policies a school have (schools have many and every school is different). The kids are trying to test me, to see if I can put up with them or I leave. They want to see if I am what they call a "proper teacher", as if supply teachers were some other race or kind of teachers. I am covering a longish supply post, so in theory they should consider me a "proper teacher" (though I do not agree with the idea of it or the term itself).

The good thing to take out of these is that I have some good collegues, specially 2 of them, and every one outside my department seems to be very nice.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

As for crafting, I haven´t had much time at all. When I come back I have to prepare my lessons for the next day and do my "home chores". nevertheless I have been stealing some time to craft a bit here and there, and this is the result of it.

These first pairs of earrings (lady bugs and cheetah print) have been partly made using material received from a swap from "bicos de nai". A lovely crafter and a wonderful and helping person. If you do not know her I advise you to vist her, she's got lovely things at very affordable prices. You can do it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/memvarel/

The materials I´ve used: lampwork ladybugs, faceted beads, sequind.

This little whipped cream pies have been handmade by me in polymer clay, and I just added some green faceted beads for extracuteness.




Green lampwork ladybugs hanging from colourful wooden flowers.

I made these for my, but I still have material for another pair.



Well, I hope you liked it all and you drop in my etsy shop. Though I will have to uptade, as I haven´t been very into crafting.


Have a nice wednesday (I am going to bed now and will be up early :( )
