Frames,frames and more frames....

I had given some things to my framer's to be framed some time ago.
Here they are.
I also bought a couple of cheap but well made frames half price from a shop that is closing in the neighbourhood.They are excellent for my sea themed wall for the summer house but for other pictures too.

I had bought two other necklaces but couldn't really resist one in my favourite colour combination aqua and purple.
....A crocheted lampshade from Illaria aka Ida in the Netherlands.I just found Illaria through etsy recently but she is so very sweet and talented.Ida Interior Lifestyle is her shop on etsy and she also has a great blog.
Great wrapping paper and attention to detail from Ida.

 And after.....with Illaria's crocheted lampshade.

and ....A great Finn zine for the protection of the Baltic Sea.Named Our Little Sea  which I found through this blog
Ever since I visited Finland I love everything about this country.

One euro from each zine sold goes to the preservation of the Baltic Sea
