Button Wednesday : Spiders

It is Wednesday again, so it's BUTTON DAY on my blog !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Did some garden cleaning this week, because the weather is so nice. Had to scream every two minutes, because of the large amount of spiders .... Yep autumn is spiders. I have no idea why I scream when I see one and why I am afraid; I can handle most animals, but spiders.... brrrr. So irrational too ! Must be something very deeply rooted. So, this Button Wednesday, some scary spider buttons to tell myself that fear for spuders is nonsense.

Monday Mood Board: Gardening

We have such gorgeous weather here in the north of Germany these days; lots of sun, no wind, warm and, above all, no rain !!! So, I had to work in the garden this weekend, and ..... I strained a muscle in my back :( I definitely not become younger in time. Hoping hubby will be home for a couple of hours this week, so that we can do the garden work together :) Here some great gardening items from some of our European Street Team sellers on Etsy.

Tidbits : Flickr Favourites

I choose "mushrooms" for this week's flickr favourites, because they are everywhere at the moment, and in the most fantastic forms and colours. I would love to learn more about mushrooms, which are eatable and which ones you can pick here, but I have still not found someone who could teach me....

Tidbits : Monday Moodboard

The Hydrangea is so beautiful at the moment; my garden is full of them. I also picked some flowers for in a vase in my living room; they stay there the whole winter. So my moodboard today is about "Hydrangea", my favourite flower in my garden; great finds from some of our European Street Team members on Etsy.
