Isn't It Ironic?!

This songs decribes perfectly my situation these days.

IRONIC, that's the word!

The things that have happened are insane!

I'm up to my head with work that needs to be done,

my color printer has decided to break down just about the time I needed it the most

(440,00 euros - thank you very much!),

an order that I have made can't be delivered on time because their printer has

broked down too - MERCY! - and I'm running like crazy around here!

Oh, and for the last 3-4 days my internet connections works whenever it feels like it!

All these just to say that I'm sorry for the lack of posts lately.

I usually pre-schedule but this time I was totally unprepared.

I hope I'll able to be back real soon but until then...

bare with me! :-)

Αυτό το τραγούδι περιγράφει τέλεια την κατάστασή μου τις τελευταίες μέρες.

ΕΙΡΩΝΕΙΑ, αυτή είναι η λέξη!

Είναι τρέλα όλα όσα έχουν συμβεί!

Είμαι πνιγμένη μέχρι το λαιμό με δουλειά που πρέπει να γίνει, ο έγχρωμος εκτυπωτής μου

αποφάσισε να διαλυθεί ακριβώς τη στιγμή που τον χρειαζόμουν περισσότερο

(440,00 ευρώ ζημιά, ευχαριστώ πολύ!),

μια παραγγελία που έκανα δεν μπορεί να παραδοθεί στην ώρα της γιατί ο εκτυπωτής τους

χάλασε και αυτός - ΕΛΕΟΣ! - και τρέχω σαν την τρελή! Α, και τις τελευταίες 3-4 μέρες

η σύνδεσή μου στο ίντερνετ λειτουργεί όποτε θέλει αυτή!

Όλα αυτά για να ζητήσω συγνώμη για την απουσία μου τελευταία.

Συνήθως προγραμματίζω τις αναρτήσεις μου αλλά αυτή τη φορά ήμουν εντελώς απροετοίμαστη.

Ελπίζω να μπορέσω να επιστρέψω σύντομα αλλά μέχρι τότε...

κάντε λίγο υπομονή! :-)

Guest Post - Easter Door Hanging

Today we have a guest post from one of my sponsors Kami from Searching from Serendipity. She was kind enough to make this cute tutorial for you! Pay her a visit to thank her for that! ;-)

Hi my name is Kami and I blog over at Searching for Serendipity. I am super excited to be guest blogging for Anzouya today and want to teach you all how to make a fun, easy, and super cute Easter Door Hanging!

First things first gather all of your supplies. You will need three colors of felt, wide ribbon, buttons, a bell, and of course scissors and sewing supplies (this can be done by hand or machine)

Using scrap paper create a template for your bunny shape, keep it fairly simple as it will be easier to sew and cut.

Use this template to cut out two of each color of felt, the bunnies will hang better if we sew them two thick.

Now the fun starts! Decorate your bunnies using buttons for eyes, I also added bows for a cute touch. Sew these on before we sew the bunnies together, this way your stitches will be hidden by the back piece of felt.

Once decorated, pin your bunnies to their matching piece of back felt, remember we cut two of each color, and sew them together. If you have a machine this is best, but hand works just fine too. Pinning them in place before sewing just help keep things neat and lined up

Take your wide ribbon and create a 1 inch long loop at the top, sewing closed. This is what your wall hanging will hang from, the loop hides a tack nicely

Line up your bunnies along the ribbon, one above the other, spacing them in a manner that suites your style. I left about a 1/2 inch gap between each of mine

Sew your bunnies onto the ribbon, hand sewing is best for this as you want to go through only the back layer of felt, connecting it to the ribbon. This way your stitches wont be visible on the front.

Attach your bell to the end to give it some weight and you are done! Hang your bunnies proudly on your door!!!

Happy Easter everyone!!! Peace, love, and pickles

Thank you Kami! It was so nice to have you here!

Happy Easter to you too!

Anzouya's Weekly Crafting Theme - No 9

Hello everyone! I hope you have had a great weekend.

Mine was quite ok, except of the disappointement that I've received when our Easter Bazaar has turned out to be a complete disaster once more. It was even worse that last Saturday. I don't know what went wrong but only a few came. That was sad. Nevertheless, I've made a couple of sales and get to know some interesting people. Oh, well... maybe we'll have better luck next time!

Γειά σε όλους! Ελπίζω να είχατε ένα υπέροχο Σαββατοκύριακο.

Το δικό μου ήταν καλό, αν εξαιρέσεις την απογοήτευση που πήρα όταν το Πασχαλινό Μπαζάρ κατέληξε σε απόλυτη καταστροφή γι'ακόμη μία φορά. Ήταν ακόμη χειρότερο και από το τελευταίο Σάββατο. Δεν ξέρω τι πήγε στραβά αλλά και πάλι ήρθαν πολύ λίγοι. Ήταν πολύ στενάχωρο. Παρόλα αυτά, πούλησα 2-3 πραγματάκια και γνώρισα μερικούς πολύ ενδιαφέροντες ανθρώπους. Τέλος πάντων... ίσως να έχουμε καλύτερη τύχη την επόμενη φορά!

Enough with the sad thoughts! Today I want to show you the truly AMAZING creations that were uploaded to the Anzouya's Weekly Crafting Theme Group. Wow! there are some really talented people around!

Αρκετά με τις στενάχωρες σκέψεις! Σήμερα θέλω να σας δείξω τις πραγματικά ΚΑΤΑΠΛΗΚΤΙΚΕΣ δημιουργίες που ανέβηκαν στο Anzouya's Weekly Crafting Theme Group. Wow! Υπάρχουν πάρα πολύ ταλαντούχοι άνθρωποι εδώ!
