thank you all for your nice comments

It all looks so festive even without the tree. The jars are my favorite things, but all of it is lovely.

i actually like the jars best myself also. it worked out pretty chick i think. i'm also quite satisfied with the glass balls, which i filled up myself with feathers and beads, and the roses, which i made from some sort of foam rubber. some more action shots follows, the daylight displays the details much better!

happy holidays to everyone! i finally made all my christmas cards and home decorations, and thought i'd show them of, in case anyone was interested i'm quite modest when it comes to christmas, i like to keep things simple and somewhat "clean". therefore, white and silver is my theme, as always. like to hear what you'd all think!

first, my christmas cards. most of them contains an english poem (parts of it), since i often find more to choose among there (new poems every year), but my grandparents gets a norwegian (or this year a swedish) poem, since their knowledge in english is quite poor.








and now over to the home decorations. this year i have decided to skip the tree due to the fact that it takes up half the living room! so, instead i came up with these ideas...

i like to draw sketches than maybe in others eyes are not quite finished...i like this half-finished look. maybe i put some color on some of the pictures, but usually not...

i have used ink on all of these

lot me know what you think
