it's roid week !

Fun fun fun...
How does it sound for you ? Have a look here
I love my old polas and the one of a kind pictures which never stop to amaze me.
Well, not so easy to find some films now but I brought out some in my luggages.
Few little objects from my parisian travel were ideal companions for a first try.
Now let's go for a pola walk !

Bye-bye Paris, Hello blog !


It's always hard for me to leave this darling town and all its treasures at each corner of the street.
I was lucky to have long walks beneath a friendly sky which made this autumn break very sweet with my friends and beloved ones.
I was away from my blog and yours much more longer than I would have expected...
I missed this special place and I missed you.
I have so much to show, I don't know how to begin.
So here are the latest pictures of nice spots I had on my recent travel.
Nice universes I had the pleasure to discover.
Other photos may follow soon !
I have a special thought to "le petit atelier de paris" wich was well placed on my to-do-list, I love their creations so much and my daughter wanted to visit Ponpon, their dog, the niciest one ever !
I was hesitating about car or train. I was happy to travel by train, I didn't for ages and I love this extra time left around. Perfect time for daydreams, reading... well, not so much on the way back, I was just captivated by the foggy windows.
Have a nice day.
Thank you to pass by here !

Creatures





After a terrible raging teethache and some various "family adventures" I'm back...
sneak peek for today
Have a good day






Milenka and the Pyramids

ohlala, I haven't been so much on this place... and yours again !!!!
Time to say, though, how enchanting was the concert I've seen on last week-end.
I really enjoyed the atmosphere, the scenery, the background pictures behind the stage... Giny truly has a lovely voice... and the cutest baby ;)
You can check out this little world here

Inspiring




From my november workshops...
Each child made one illustration,
 I made one different cover, one unique story for each class and one book per child.
Finally, I brought the pretty piles to the schools... The big smile of the children made my day.
Their ideas and interpretations really amazed me.
Sorry for the bad pictures, the light was awful last week !!!
Have a shiny day everyone

A bunch of small elements from my "parisian story"





It was cold, really really very cold.
Anyhow, Paris has the strange power to warm up my heart so easily.
I walked everyday through the town, eyes wide open trying to see the most possible in one glance. I love the special mood of the city, and the surprises everywhere.
One place I had on my to-do-list was "Le petit atelier de Paris" It's a wonderful little shop where you can find the most fabulous ceramics which are designed and handmaid in their own workshop there. They are very sweet and Ponpon the dog is the loviest I've ever seen. It was terrible to make a choice, I just wanted everything... I'll show you later what I've chosen to bring with me... and some of the billions pictures I made during the vacations :)
From another walk ...The amazing sculpture of the couple was truly fantastic. It reminds me of the Camilla Engmann's world. It was raised in the courtyard of... the Hunting Museum. The subject didn't seem so attractive but we have been told later that it's worth being visited, maybe one next time... 
The ginkgoes at the corner of the street were sumptuous even if they were hiding a bit the Combas' mural painting.
The bird is a little fellow I sew for my friend Caty 
Now I'm back and I miss my friends already...
But The week-end was filled with happy time... The mesmerizing Alela Diane in concert, the nice surprise to recognize Gini there and the pleasure to meet her with regis before the concert, I'm looking forward seeing them soon.
The sun then, which was missing us after too much rain...
a New week and some new projects... Workshops with many children, I will make them doing their own book.
Then, on saturday I'll be participating at the book fair of st-laurent du var for my book "aux menus plaisirs" (éditions du Rouergue)
Have a nice day
