kuvittele kädet! / imagine hands!

Mökkipihan pensasraivauksessa löytyi viime kesän pesä. En lakkaa ihastelemasta tuota turkoosia. Mietin samalla miksi muna on rikki, mikä eläin pesällä kävi. Kun katson tuota kuvaa tulee heti mieleen kädet sen ympärille.

Komerosta löytyi vihreä huivi. Se sopii kivasti vihreisiin ranteenlämmittimiin. Halusin ottaa kuvan, jossa pitelen kuppia kädessäni lämppäreineni, mutta se ei onnistunut. Voit kuvitella kädet kuvaan.


I found this last years birdnest while cutting down a horrible bush in the summer cottage. 
That turquise of the egg is so wonderful. I´m thinking what animal did that, ate it. Maybe a mouse? 
Now the bush is gone and the birds will find a safer place for their nest. (The bush is, no, it was really horrible. No good for any birds to nest in. I`m sure the birds agree.) When i look at this picture, i start imagining hands holding it.


Green scarf goes nicely together with those green wristwarmers. I wanted to take a picture of me holding the cup in my warmers, but oh, i didn´t work out and now you just have to imagine the hands there.

kukkahattu / flower hat

Näihin tulikin aika slaavilainen tunnelma. Sopii hyvin, koska hänellä on isänsä puolelta suorastaan kuninkaallisia esi-isiä idästä (kaukaa kaukaa kaaauuukaaa historian havinasta). Minun puoleltani sinisilmäisiä idealisteja, jotka menehtyivät siperiassa, torppareita, seppiä, saarnamiehiä ja jopa yksi saarnamiehen murhannut mustasukkainen aviomies.

Otettiin yli sata kuvaa. Meillä oli tosi hauskaa.


The athmosphare became quite slavic here after all. That´s just right, because she does have some royal slavic ancestors from her father´s side (far far faaaar away back in the history). From my side peasants and naive idealists, preachers and madmans.

We took over hundred pictures. And had fun.

kevätpipoja / spring hats

Vanhat, epäsopivat, reikäiset ja kulahtaneet t-paidat muuttuivat mainioiksi kevätpipoiksi. Kissapipa oli lapsosen toivomus: eskarikaverilla on hieno karvakangasversio ulkokäyttöön. Hyvin toimii tämä kevyempikin versio.
Tuo kukkapipo ruusukkukeineen näyttää kertakaikkiaan ihastuttavalta neito S:n päässä. 20-luvun ja San Fransiscon kukkaiskansan ihastuttava sekoitus. Otan kuvan kunhan tuo sulotar ehtii vähän poseerata.
Liisun mielestä parhainta kuitenkin oli kissapehmolle ompelemani yöpuku, joka on melkein samanlainen kuin hänen oma oranssi raitahaalarinsa. Ihastun kuinka pienestä asiasta voikaan ihmistaimi ilahtua ja innostua.

Old, worn out, teared t-shirt became nice spring hats. Liisu wished for the cat hat: her preschool friend has a cool furry winter cathat. This t-shirt version is pretty swell too.
That flowery hat looks absolutely stunning on miss S. Like: 20´meet San Fransisco flower power in a most fairy kind of way. I´ll take a picture for you.

Rachelle

I simply don't know how to start writing this post because Rachelle is one of the most memorable bride's I've had ;-) She's beautiful and thoughtful!! I can write so many good things about this woman. The list goes on and on.. She's very kind.. understanding.. you can feel that she really respects me as her designer.. warm.. generous.. funny.. and someone you can share your feelings with. She's so adorable! ;-) She's a true friend! ;-)

Her wedding gown is a fusion of lines, textures, and volume. She's not a bride who fancy lace and ruffles.. In this kind of business, I've met a lot of different brides and sometimes I get really crazy talking to each of them because they think differently, and they have different personalities and preferences ;-) But it is FUN! ;-)

At the end of the day, my objective is to make them happy and satisfied ;-)

Rita

I've done several wedding gowns already and I get really excited every time a bride comes to me asking for something different and unique. I love challenges!! :-) haha..

Rita is definitely a unique bride. She has a very tight schedule because she works as a Flight Attendant ;-) Yup, she's sexy, beautiful, really gorgeous! I was so excited when I first met her at Coffee Bean in Greenbelt around 3:00 AM! haha.. yes! super late coz that's her only available time and she's flying in the morning ;-)

She wanted a gown that's sexy, elegant, modern and very feminine. I made her a contemporary wedding gown made of French lace with embroidery accents. I super love the sheer tulle skirt and low low low back ;-) haha ;-) I also made her a beaded fluffy tulle mini dress for the reception! :-)
