I'm speechless ;)
Hello after a long break. I have neglected my blog a lot, because I am speechless. Doubly so… First of all, I am speechless with excitement, because many “interesting” things have been happening to me. And I am speechless in many meters of tapes and ribbons, but fortunately I love it. There was no shortage of pleasant things – here I immediately think of the Archaeological Museum in…

What the eyes don’t see…
On the day of the publication of the previous post, I was optimistic and full of energy. We enthusiastically started planting the fruit trees we had bought earlier. Unfortunately, our orchard-growing ambitions turned into pseudo-archaeological excavations. What had previously looked like an idyllic, weedy meadow turned out to be an old garbage dump.

Dyed purse
The starting material for the dyeing game was a piece of white linen cloth and a linen thread called twine. I measured a circle with a plate, cut it out, hemmed it and rubbed it wet with alum. I bought alum a long time ago in a chemist's in the form of deodorant. I think asking here what I dyed it with misses the point, since the photo clearly suggests that...
The world of George Orwell?
After the change in the pay system. Employees: We don't like the fact that we now have lower pay. President: After all, the new system assumed higher pay. Employees: Unfortunately, smaller amounts were transferred to our accounts. President: According to my calculations, the pay is now higher. If you get less, it means you made a mistake. Keep counting until you get higher pay.
