Christmas window frame

hello,

...winter is already here, Christmas is around the corner and our home decoration is almost done.

When I found these frames at the Bird Svg's, I didn't know what to do first. So many  posibilities. 
Today I have made this Christmas window frame, which is very simple and  certainly not my last. I have discovered that he nicely fills a vacant place on the wall, so I will do them more in the same spirit, but with little changes.  



You can find this pattern  at Bird's Svg's  in collection 





   ...I made the large one...


















Make this window frame is really very simple. All I did was that I made one frame without backround and front  piece and then I made and resized one side once to be more narrow and twice to be same narrow like previous but shorter too. Those three sides I used for inside in window.  The tall in the midlle - horizontal and two smaller pieces vertical left and right, to creat "cross"  inside in window.  I used hot glue.  Then I made front pice - just make cros inside in window wit rectangle shape from scut basic library and united them and that is.

...so, I hope you like my version of this frame. Thank you for your time and wish you creative  weekend...anta :-)

Herbal sachets


...hello. today I have a little different project to share. Like i wrote before, sewing it's my passion too. I made those herbal sachets like a gift for my sister, but now I know I need them for myself also. 







...daphne leaves are from our tree...


This mushrooms "Porcini" is collect and dried by my mom. :-)








... rosemary also from our garden...





...linden from neighbours... :-)








...amazing thyme with beautiful  scent from our garden too...









...and verbena. The sachet is for citronella, but the leaves and plant at right are verbena and it's smell heavenly. The smell is...I can't describe. Something like lemon, freshness and more...  So I will need more sachets.  I will be busy :-)








... oregano and back side of sachet. I made a loop for hanging. I didn't collect oregano so I must to buy it from some  herbalist in the village. This oregano will be straight from the mountains and  have a very strong fragrance and flavor. Amazing...





...thank you for visiting my blog and for your time. Have a nice rest of the week...anta  :-)

Herbs



...from my garden.
   Another of my hobbies. Gardening and herbs. This is just one part. My garden is like an oasis of peace, but only seemingly, because in fact there is a very busy life, so a lot of traffic with their floral visitors.





...sage...


...hard working :-)...




...harvested sage, ready for drying...



...harvested rosemary... for drying too...



...rosemary...



...zucchini flower...



...and here is my only lavender, which I must learn care of and everything about growing...



Aloysia citrodora and lavender. Both smell amazing...


...sage and chives with so delicate taste...



...and Oregano...my first...











...thank you for stopping by and have a nice week...anta :-)
