Simon’s Cat

Finished drawing Simon’s Cat today. The girls really like this character. Now we have our own cheeky and perpetually hungry kitty living with us.


Daisies for Mommy

Today is my mommy’s birthday. For such a summer event, daisies are the most suitable flowers. Therefore, as a gift, I embroidered a picture of “Daisies” with ribbons and beads. I’ll send it over soon, wait!


Anya’s cat, Malysh.

Anechka finished crocheting her rectangular cat. Today we finished registering him, and we have a cute little kitten, whom Anya named Malysh and makes up whole stories about.


Crocheted bracelets

Today I was suddenly compelled to crochet bracelets. Made three—one in the shape of a nautical knot, the second with a tulip pattern, and the third on an orange base with beads in the colors of the Dutch flag.


Embroidered glasses for girls

Today I quickly embroidered two pairs of sunglasses and cases for them. I bought the basics a long time ago, but I just haven’t had the inspiration to start embroidering. So now Anya and Masha are showing off their new and stylish summer accessories.


Mariya’s Fox

Yesterday, friends also gave Masha a papier-mâché fox form, ready for painting or decoupage. And today Masha painted it herself with gouache, I just tweaked the eyes a little. It turned out to be a very cute little creature that Masha enjoys playing with.


New monster Nefera

Today we had friends visiting, and they gifted Anechka a new Monster High Nefera De Nile doll from the Boo York series, released in 2015. The doll is very cute, she looks like Cleo’s sister. She has black hair with green and gold highlights. The hands are molded up to the elbow to resemble green gloves. A stand and a comb were included.


Sweet gifts for teachers.

Finished the sweet part of the birthday gifts for the teachers who are celebrating at Masha’s school on the same day today. For Carmen, I prepared a lollipops vase with chocolate and candy roses. And for the physical education teacher – a dumbbell made of Snickers bars with a medal. I hope they like it.


Phone cases

Masha’s school is approaching Teacher’s Day. For the teachers of Mariya, I sewed two phone or glasses cases with ribbon and bead embroidery.


Beaded sunflower

Today I made a sunflower out of beads quite quickly. I liked the result.
