Best laid plans

Oh boy, I had it all planned perfectly. 

Last Sunday hubby and I drove to a rented holiday home to finally have a proper holiday for two weeks. The holiday home is only a 1 hour drive from the campsite where we live, but it is a world of difference. Located in the mountains (much cooler, which is sooooooo wonderful) and somewhat isolated. Meaning.....quiet, no waiting lines for the shower or the washing machine, there is actually warm water left to take a shower and equipped with a very large fridge and freezer all for ourselves. Heaven! Please, don't get me wrong, I love our life, living in our mobile home on a campsite. That is, for 11 months of the year. In August it is a different story. Holiday season, so every inch of the camping is packed with people.
 
So, I packed a small selection of my beads to finally sit down and create. Hubby looked a bit worried as the "small" selection was at least 20 kg of beads (one crate succumbed to the weight) but we arrived safely in once piece.

So far so good, the plan worked. But that was it. In short: work interfered, meaning, I am still "playing" with my laptop instead of my beads. But hey...I have a spectacular view:


You get the idea...no new earrings for me to show. But I have these earrings I made back in 2014 I like to share with you. A simple design, made with beautiful fun and colorful ceramic charms made by my friends from Golem design studio. Just by looking at them I feel happy.




I still have some of there charms in my stash, so I am definitely planning to make more of these summery earrings.That's it for me today. I wish you all a wonderful day, full of sunshine, laughter and flowers.


See you next month. 
Thanks for looking and you know I love to read your comments so don't be shy and leave some words.
