What I've been up to...

I would have loved to write something for [livejournal.com profile] torino10154's Blow Job Friday. (Have you seen the awesome stories over there?)
Well, lets just say I've been creative in other ways- like seasons craftmanship.

Though most people here are not very religious anymore nearly everyone celebrates a lot of those old Catholic traditions during Christmas season. So, I've crafted an Advent calender for the little one these last days and we've decorated our Advent wreath together today. Here are some pics about the calender crafting because it started a bit strange and now everything looks very shiny. And a pic of the wreath on top.

Yepp, that are loo rolls.

Much better. Duh!

And the treats.

Took around 5 hours to get there. Thank heaven, we've only one child. ;p

And the Advent wreath.


We also crafted some window pictures (Christmas trees) together this afternoon. Now we are well prepared for this year's season. :D


Oh, and I've read a lot. Fics and books. I'm currently reading a book from my tbr pile which came to my mind again because [livejournal.com profile] drarryisgreen quoted it yesterday. I need to hurry because [livejournal.com profile] hd_erised starts posting on Monday. OMG, I'm so excited! :D

It's nearly midnight here. I hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday!

Heh, Mr. Kantorka sure is one lucky guy - but in our family my BF is the real artist, with food and otherwise. If I tried to surprise him with my attempt at craft, I'd probably get a forced half-pitying smile and a pat on the head: "You tried very hard for this, baby, right?" Not exactly OMG, it's gorgeous... ;) I'll show you once his attempt at art, I can't attach anything here, but he's really good. And a computer programmer, mind you, completely missed his profession! ;)
Ahem - pssst, there is no "my" art, nothing in my LJ, see? *innocent blink* (Just a bit of doodling around for laughs ;))
Those stick figures, however, are glorious! :D How can someone stick (!) so much expression and body language onto a stick figure is beyond me. I'm sure you can do just as well - and you've got 24 shiny proofs of your artistic skill now! :)
