Colorful cake pops for carnival.

My little niece dressed up as scary clown.

Cool couch cushion my mother made.

My new flat serving bowl from Butlers that I use for nuts and dried fruits.

I think I am slowly becoming a crazy owl lady...

A beautiful turquoise plate from Butlers that I now use as a fruit bowl.

The funniest fridge magnet. It looks like the goat is coming out of the wall.

Super cute mini cupcake cups from IKEA - soon to be used!! 

Fresh parsley from my little kitchen garden.

New tree studs for my Dawanda Shop.

In the Dark...

My sister with a torch during a night walk.

I recently realised that I took a lot of very dark pictures lately. Don't know why, maybe it's an impact of the season. Though they may look scary and even repellent at first sight, I think that such dark- black pictures can have a certain atmosphere and a special vibe to them. You just can't help but to look a little bit closer and think about them a little bit more then about the average picture... right?

Scary looking statue in a dark wood. But  I guess in a dark wood nearly everything looks scary...

Christmas gooses in their barn.

Years of spider work.

Beautiful shadow from my Christmas deer decoration.

Picture of the free seals in San Francisco I took a view years ago. I feel like I can still smell them...

The garden gnome who watches our apple tree. Incidentally he looks exactly like my old Latin teacher.

Cutest little snowball dog from Florence.

Cool office building at the dockside in Münster.

Aren't they adorable? They didn't move one inch while we were watching, all lost in their dreams.

Five Things

Beautiful little lanterns which I technically bought for Advent, but they give such a wonderful shimmering light that I use them every day now.

Marzipan Kartoffeln (what's left), my favourite pre-season snack at the moment.

Delicious little Lemon-Meringue Tarts a friend made for me this weekend.

Chagall postcard I bought at the Museum this morning.

Glitter corsage of a dress I considered to wear at my grandparents diamond wedding next week ( I thought the gold-glitter would kind of suit the occasion :) ) but then I dismissed it as it was a bit pricey for me. And maybe it would have been a little over the top anyway. Looked nice, though!
