AFTERNOON




My mother came by to watch Dag while Eddi and I painted and organized in the house.
We had us a little break with some late afternoon tea on the sunny porch.

(Dag grabs all the cookies, puts them back so he can grab them again, tastes them a little bit and offers us them saying TAK TAK. Which means tack tack which translates thank you x2)

BUTTONS IN THE BACK AND AN IKEA SKIRT



 I bought a new summer top with a scalloped hem that  buttons down the back. More tops should to that; come wiht buttons in the back.


I wore it with a new carnival skirt that I made the other day out of a leftover piece of fabric they had in the sale box over at ikea. Sturdy interior fabrics make great circle skirts! Or, as in this case, a 3/4-circle skirt.

I of course had to make the skirt with pockets.

Because you know, as I say,  pockets make any garment a little more perfect and life a little easier.
