I made it bazaar

I am working hard for my first bazaar exhibition.
It will take place this Sunday the 10th from 2 in the afternoon till 10 at night at Rover Bar Cafe at Ladadika. Hope to see all my local friends there!

Here are some of the things I will have there.
Sea glass beaded felted stones and Christmas felted stones.

 Some wired trees on felted stones.

 Pendants with sea glass and beads.

 And many more!

Working hard to have everything ready!

With the company of Barca always.

Summer 2013-felted stones (1)

Another really happy time before lunch was felting stones and decorating them. It was such a peaceful happy time for me.
I made many, some I gave away as gifts but I am going to have a shop update soon I hope too.
I started by putting everything on the porch table.

 Of course I had felted some stones some days before.I then stuck the sea shells, sea glass and other finds on them and let them dry.

 And then took one by one and sitched on them. First this gorgeous green brown.

 Then a blue with a 2013 note on it and a little yellow button.

 And then one more green and brown with a wooden button on it.

 These too were sold to a neighbour who bought them as a gift for a friend.

 I loved looking at my new art pieces along with the older ones I had taken with me. I was thinking that maybe I could sell those too!Oh well...not that lucky!

I kept them in this beautiful blown glass dish.

This is a little blue one.

 Getting ready for one more

 which was given as a gift to a dear friend in Australia who was visiting Greece.

 And one more

with added 3D details....on the grass....

And this one with two coloured felt and lots of details....

 was gifted to my dear neighbour and friend and first customer!

So after I gave her this she made a custom order where I used a sea glass piece her son found while snorkeling at our sea.

 So here they are the two together!

I was so happy with how all those pieces turned out and the happines they brought to others that I felted lots more stones.

I got some more beads too.

 And also used the old ones I had.

I had good company too.

And started creating!
What? You will see soon!
But if you are interested in the ones you have seen in this post (not the sold or gifted ones of course) let me know so that I can add them to my etsy and reserve them for you.

Beautiful sea glass art.

So here I am back after 11 performances on Koutornithia. The play was a huge success, the theatre was filled with people and we all enjoyed the experience very very much!
We are not over with this play that's for sure and we are planning more performances and of other plays too. So stay tuned.
This is hopefully a relaxing sunny weekend to get some rest before going back to school on Monday.I am trying to catch up on mail, blogging and reading.I have to finish a book but on this I will talk another time. Now to other things.
A month ago or so I ordered a lovely necklace from a lovely sea glass friend on etsy.
LaPerLaA is the Italian artist Antonella who makes sea glass and other finds in peyote style with tiny seed beads.
Here is what I bought from her.

Isn't it gorgeous?
She also included some sea glass from the Amalfi coast in Italy and one of her lovely pins made in the tatting style.

 She was so nice to buy one of my beach stones too and she turned it into a pendant for her mum.
Here is what she bought from me.

Here is what she made with it.

You can read all about LaPerLaA and the adventure of this stone in Antonella's blog here.

While attending a seminar.

 Aren't these lovely beads? A colleague at the English Teachers' seminar that I attended early in September was wearing it. She made it herself with semi precious beads from Istanbul! Isn't it gorgeous?

 Well better looking at those gorgeous beads than the series of narrow windows of the school we were at.
I have to do some essays again for the next seminar but unfortunately they increased the number of essays and projects and decreased the number of days we have to prepare them so I might be off the blogland for a couple of days till I finish them.
