New winter line makeup rolls

I just love the winter and love all those amazing twill fabrics that are selling in the fabric shops only this time of the year...so I have made a limited edition of winter makeup rolls and they are now available in my shop

Cream Light corduroy makeup roll

 

Red Light plaid twill makeup roll

My style

In the past few months I lost over 10 Kg! It's so amazing! I'm getting so much closer to the way I was before my last pregnancy, almost 3 years ago. from the minute that I have passed my checkpoint of 10 Kg of weight loss all I can think of is ... Clothes, clothes and some more clothes! 

I'm trying not to buy anything now until I get to my target weight but ...a girl need something to think about. Here's what I have in my shopping list at this point ....

בחודשים האחרונים הורדתי מעל 10 קילוגרמים! זה כיף לא רגיל ....אני מתקרבת בצעדי ענק לגיזרה שכל כך התגעגעתי אליה מאז ההריון האחרון לפני כמעט 3 שנים. ומאז שעברתי את מחסום ה - 10 קילו כל מה שאני יכולה לחשוב עליו זה ... בגדים, בגדים ועוד קצת בגדים. אני מתאפקת לא לקנות עכשיו כלום עד שאני אגיע למשקל היעד שלי אבל להסתכל מותר נכון? הנה מה שנמצא כרגע ברשימת הקניות שלי

Friday Etsy - What's new this week (Dec.09)

The weekend is here and it's time to see what's new on Etsy.com handmade stores this week - December 09, 2011. Join us every Friday for the Etsy handmade shops party while sellers share the link to their new item!!

My new line of winter makeup rolls is now up in my store, I really love those new rolls and so excited about them. I have used Light plaid twill, Light corduroy fabric and Daryl canvas for making them and they have the most warm winter feeling....here is one of the new makeup rolls, you can see them all in my shop 

Musical Family

This week my husband bought a new guitar, he and my oldest son playing together on almost every tool available and my house is starting to look like one large rehearsal room. it seems that the talent for music comes from the side of my husband family while my daughter and I has no ability to play on any musical instrument. my husband cousins, and now their children, are most musical. So this is how it's looks like when the men in the family get together for a morning of music and coffee....

השבוע בעלי קנה גיטרה חשמלית חדשה ומגבר, הוא והבן הגדול שלי מנגנים ביחד על כל כלי אפשרי כמעט והבית שלי מתחיל להראות כמו חדר חזרות אחד גדול, מסתבר שכישרון הנגינה מגיע מהצד של בעלי כי בעוד שלי ולבת שלי אין שום יכולת לנגן בצד של בעלי כל בני הדודים, ועכשיו גם הילדים שלהם, מוזיקליים ביותר. ככה זה נראה כשהגברים במשפחה נפגשים לקפה 

ומוזיקה

I have made a new makeup roll in shades of brown and green this week, you can see it in my shop. A stylish makeup roll for you to organize all your cosmetics stuff in a practical easy way that looks like a small makeup bag but opens up to a colorful large makeup roll with 6 packets.

**The party is close! I had so much fun!! 

Thank you Etsy sellers for joining me... See you all again next week ♥ **

Saturday Trip - "Stream judge"

I just love those Saturdays walks, the only day that the whole family is together for each other without thinking about work or any tasks, simply go for a walk in nature in such a perfect sunny day.
We walked at the "Stream judge" this week - a lovely place with an easy walking route that a three years old child can enjoyed without any difficulty, and the highlight of the trip were those little caves that my son was excited by so much.

אני כל כך אוהבת את הטיולים של ימי שבת, היום היחיד שבו כל המשפחה ביחד פנויים אחד לשני בלי לחשוב על עבודה ומטלות למיניהם פשוט יוצאים לטייל בטבע ביום שמש מושלם שכזה. השבוע טיילנו בנחל השופט - מקום מקסים עם מסלול הליכה קליל שגם ילד בן שלוש נהנה בו ללא קושי, וגולת הכותרת של הטיול היו המערות הקטנות שהבן שלי התלהב מהן כל כך

How to Wear a Scarf

This morning we woke up to a wintry week and as a big winter fan I have quite a collection of scarfs in my closet just waiting for a day like this to come out and get some air. So on a rainy morning like this what is more appropriate then this amazing video I have found that shows 25 different ways to wear a Scarf

הבוקר התעוררנו לתוך שבוע חורפי וכחובבת חורף מושבעת יש לי אוסף לא קטן של צעיפים בארון שרק מחכים ליום שכזה כדי לצאת החוצה ולהתאוורר...אז לבוקר גשום שכזה מה יותר מתאים מהדרכת הוידיאו המקסימה הזו שמצאתי שמראה איך  ללבוש צעיף ב-25 דרכים שונות

My morning coffee

I received several emails from Israelis readers asking if I can translate my blog posts into Hebrew. so form now I will write my posts in English for my overseas friends and in Hebrew for my friends in Israel.
Seems like someone is thinks about me ..... every morning my husband and I tend to drink our morning coffee together just before getting ready to work, school and kindergarten, this week my husband was in London for reasons of work and I drank my daily morning coffee alone. This morning I had a special surprise in my glass and I had to shoot it, after the first sip of my coffee I noticed this heart shape in the glass. I't's looks like a sign telling me that someone thinks about me even from the far away London.

קיבלתי כמה אימיילים מקוראים ישראלים בבלוג ששאלו האים אני יכולה לתרגם את הפוסטים שלי גם לעברית אז בשבילכם .חברים יקרים מעכשיו הפוסטים יכתבו גם באנגלית לטובת חברי מעבר לים וגם בעברית לטובת חבריי מישראל

נראה שמישהוא חושב עליי.....כל בוקר בעלי ואני נוהגים לשתות את קפה הבוקר ביחד דקה לפני שמתארגנים לעבודה, לבתי הספר ולגן. השבוע בעלי היה בלונדון מטעמי עבודה ואת קפה הבוקר היומי שתיתי לבד. הבוקר היתה לי הפתעה מיוחדת בכוס שהייתי חייבת לצלם, אחרי לגימה ראשונה מהקפה גיליתי צורה של לב בכוס נראה ממש כמו סימן שבא להגיד לי שמישהוא חושב עליי גם מלונדון הרחוקה

Saturday fun

Last Saturday we visited my parents, my kids really love it when we visiting them because they have everything that kids needs in one place - huge garden to play in, lots of sweets and too many toys. we had an amazing sunny day and my little boy had so much fun driving his little engine car.

Sushi night

My brother-in-law and his bushiness partner opened their own japans catering service few weeks ago and to celebrate this spacial occasion they came to our house and made the most amazing Sushi ever. I don't even remember the name of every roll because I was too busy eating ...we had so much fun and everything was so tasty!
