Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

Saint Patrick's Day is a religious holiday celebrated internationally on 17 March. It is named after Saint Patrick, the most commonly recognized of the patron saints of Ireland. Saint Patrick's Day was made an official feast day in the early 17th century, and has gradually become a celebration of Irish culture in general.

Now, it's a day when you hear "Kiss me I am Irish" or "I wish you a lot of luck!"

I want to show you my embroidery made especially for this holiday. You can buy it here.

 Also I want to show some collections picked by my fellow friends on Etsy. First is the treasury for collecting donation for Japan. We all are grieving!

Spring inspire!

There is warm spring weather for a few days. Synoptics says that cold will come again but now Spring actually is))

I spend more time on fresh air, it is so important for my little son. And together we watch the Nature, the beginning of new life around. Some cute small flowers are make their way through cold ground. And this strong but lovely flower inspired me to make new items.

May I introduce embroidered jewelry!

I hope it find it's fans :) There will be more soon!

Spring post cards exchange

You know there is th team on Etsy which called Russian Artists. Members of this team are russianspeakers. So, almost all members knew and celebrate such holiday as 8th of March. This is The International Women's Day but it is well-known only in Eastern Europe and post-soviet countries. 

Some of my fellow team members live in America and there families don't celebrate such holiday. And Albina from AroundBeads came up with a great idea of writing a few with warm words about spring to a few members of our team.

I've received three amazing post cards from my Russian Artists fellow team members. I got beautiful cards from Natalia from HansHolzkopf, Tonya Utkina (our captain) and Svetlana from NesJewelry. It was a surprise, because I did not knew from whom I would get my cards.

Thank you so much for wonderful cards and your sincere and kind words!!!

Maslenitsa!

Sunday the 6th of March was the last day of Maslenitsa's week.
As Wikipedia says:
Maslenitsa (Russian: Ма́сленица, Ukrainian: Ма́сляниця, Belarusian: Ма́сьленіца), also known as Butter Week, Pancake week, or Cheesefare Week, is a Russian religious and folk holiday. It is celebrated during the last week before Great Lent — that is, the seventh week before Pascha (Easter). Maslenitsa corresponds to the Western Christian Carnival, except that Orthodox Lent begins on a Monday instead of a Wednesday.
So, at this Sunday we decided to make some pancake.

  

  

We (I and my dear friend and godmother of my son Sasha) wanted to please our husbands and everyones taste and make few different filling.
