We'll be back in a month!

Dear readers,

It's time to take some vacation and for this year we planned something special: a one-month trip to Asia! After we return we will post a DIY tutorial for all of you who are crazy about traveling as much as we are.

Until then, enjoy the summer:)

Love,
Emina and Nerma Pin It Now!

FINAL RESULTS of Emina's Workshop on Statement necklaces!

Remember that I held a workshop on statement necklaces last month? I met the girls again afterwards for a second session and while not all of them had the time (and it takes a loooot of time!) to finish their pieces, I can finally present to you some of the finished beautiful and unique necklaces.
 
First of all, here is a group picture in which I am wearing my first handmade necklace.

DIY: How I Met Your Mother T-Shirt Adjusted

By now you should all know that I am a big fan of How I Met Your Mother and in particularly Barney Stinson (at least the Barney that he used to be in the first seasons). This is why I just had to order this funny statement t-shirt when I saw it on Amazon. 

But when it finally arrived I felt as if there is something missing. I didn't like the sleeves and it just needed my very own personal touch. I think that my little adjustments really made a huge difference.

Recipe: Banana dipped in chocolate. Yummy!

The easiest way to refresh your guests on a hot summer day and it takes you less than half an hour.

Dip banana in melted chocolate and top with whatever you love and/or have around in your kitchen. I prefer toasted almond:) Don't forget to serve it with ice cream and flowers, for an extra pop of color and summer feeling! 

Now you only need a cozy spot in your garden, on the balcony, anywhere outdoors:)

Yes, I love summer:)

Emina's Very First Workshop on Statement Necklaces

I am so excited: Yesterday I held a workshop on how to make a statement necklace for fellow (female) trainees in the European Commission!

The girls and me really had fun and, as it is very time-consuming, we didn't finish the necklaces in our first session. Therefore, here is an overview of the first (very productive) day. We will meet next week again and then I will present you the final result of our creative and hard work:)

Recipe: Apple Strudel With The Most Awesome Crust Ever

I watched Jamie Oliver doing his magic in the kitchen the other day. He had this awesome idea to boost up a  puff pastry from the supermarket. It's genius! I decided to try out the same with a simple apple strudel.

DIY Fashion: From Old Necklace To Fabulous Blouse

 I had this broken necklace for some time and didn't know what to do with it. Then I found a cute green blouse that I haven't worn for ages. I still liked it but it was somehow boring and definitely needed a makeover.
