one bed/couch-sock is finished! i didn't have enough of the green yarn, so i used dark blue for the toe. you need a little imagination since the sock isn't sewn together yet.
(the colors aren't great on these pictures, it was getting dark and i had to hurry to take a picture! but you get the idea...)
 
i started the second sock yesterday and i hope i can finish it before it's 2012, so it can go in my 2011-mosaic. (like i did last year) :)
it was also my 23th birthday last week, and as a gift for myself i ordered this handmade ring from fleurfatale. i also received a gift voucher for julija's shop (yaaaaayy!!), so i'm looking for a pretty scarf pattern so i can go and buy some yarn... tips, anyone? 
in the meantime... merry (late) christmas and a happy new year!! enjoy!

remember the "at-my-boyfriends-place-project"? well, now that i live together with my boyfriend i decided it was about time i finished it. so i did!
the crocheting-part was finished some time ago (september i guess) but i stil had to sew a lining for it. this week i finally found some time... so now it's oficially finished and in use. :)

ta-daaaaaaaaaah! after all those posts about christmas decoriations, finally, our christmas tree!!
filled with 8 knitted christmas balls, 4 handmade felt balls (tutorials here and here), pom-poms, lights (ofcourse) and tiny ornaments.

my mom gave me these cute wooden decorations, i think they are older than myself... 
they are all different (angels, snowmen, horses,...) but santa is my favorite:
 these ornaments were found in dille&kamille... loved those little felt hats.
 it's also christmas in london... see:
 and, since my boyfriend went way overboard with the pom-poms (he made almost 100 pom-poms!), they are all now over the place:

i still have to figure out where to put the crocheted snowflakes and felt balls... 
but i'm feeling quite christmassy already! :) have a nice sunday!!
