I found this small side table on curb, when we moved to Frankfurt in 2015. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The table plate was broken and I had no tools or much knowledge how to repair it. So, I got thin plywood sheets from the home improvement store and cut the wood with a knife and a small saw in a rough hexagon shape. I sanded down the edges, glued and stapled two hexagon sheets together and glued it in place … the rest was basically held in place by the color ^^ </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Diesen kleinen Beistelltisch fand ich 2015 auf dem Sperrmüll, als wir gerade nach Frankfurt gezogen waren. Die Tischplatte war zerbrochen und ich hatte noch keine Werkzeuge oder viel Können, um es vernünftig zu reparieren, aber ich versuchte etwas: Vom Baumarkt kaufte ich dünne Spannplatten, die ich mit einer kleinen Säge und einem Messer in Sechseck-Form schnitt. Dann bearbeitete ich die ungeraden Kanten mit Schleifpapier bis es halbwegs passte, klebte & tackerte zwei Platten zusammen und klebte sie auf den Tisch. Der Rest wurde dann mit einer großzügigen Menge Farbe zusammengehalten ^^</i></span></div>

Initially I wanted the table to be black, but disliked it while painting, so that I switched to barn red, which was fitting in with other deep red accents that I had at home. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When we moved to Würselen, the color didn’t fit anymore therefore I decided to paint it ocean blue, which was alright, but something was missing. So I attempted to paint the table plate and surrounding area a faux marble in white and grey. It looks good from afar and very much painted as one gets closer, but I checked out marble contact paper and some of it looks worse than my faux painting :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Zuerst dachte ich an schwarze Farbe, aber schon beim Streichen gefiel mir das nicht, so daß ich stattdessen Schwedenrot verwendete. Ich hatte zu der Zeit andere dunkelrote Akzente im Wohnzimmer, so daß das gut passte. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Als wir nach Würselen zogen, änderte sich das und deswegen bemalte ich den Tisch dieses Mal in ‚Ozeanblau‘ was okay war, aber irgendetwas fehlte. Also versuchte ich mich daran falschen Marmor in weißer und grauer Acrylfarbe aufzumalen. Es sieht nicht schlecht von weitem aus und sehr unecht je näher man herankommt. Aber ich habe mir Marmor- Klebefolien im Baumarkt angesehen und die sehen irgendwie noch unechter aus :)</i></span></div>

I have the feeling that I might tire of the look after a while, but currently I’m happy with how it turned out. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Ich vermute, daß ich irgendwann wieder einen neuen Look haben möchte, dann werde ich die vorherigen Farbschichten herunterschleifen oder abbeizen müssen, aber derzeit bin ich mit dem Resultat zufrieden.</i></span><br />

A lot of my DIY projects start with: we ‘inherited’ this furniture from the previous tenants and try to make it work for us - and this patio set, which we put on the balcony is no exception. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wouldn’t have chosen the rather uncomfortable, plastic rattan bench and seat with a glass topped coffee table - but hey, it was for free ^^ </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The glass of the coffee table had to go immediately, there is no way and even with two times cleaning per day to ever keep it clean and I anyways needed the table as a stool. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Viele meiner DIY Projekte beginnen mit: Das haben wir von den Vormietern übernommen und jetzt versuchen wir etwas daraus zu machen, was uns gefällt - und so verhält es sich auch mit diesen Gartenmöbeln, die wir auf den Balkon gestellt haben. Ich hätte die erstaunlich unbequemen, Plastik-Rattan Bank, Stuhl und Tisch mit Glasplatte sicher nicht gewählt, aber dann mussten wir eben auch kein Geld dafür ausgeben ^^ </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Das Glas auf dem Tisch habe ich gleich am zweiten Tag entfernt, denn selbst mit ständig nachwischen, war es unmöglich diese Glasplatte sauber zu halten - und ich wollte statt Tisch ohnehin lieber einen Hocker haben. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then, we ordered a two meter long and 5 cm high foam mattress from a nearby factory, to cut out new seat cushions. After that I had to find a colorful outdoor fabric. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The choices in Germany are very limited, usually you will find maybe three outdoor fabrics and you still have to order them online. Therefore, I initially went with a simple decorative fabric that I liked, but already while sewing I realized that it won’t last for long and the sun and cats added to its fast decline. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Dann bestellten wir eine Schaumstoffmatratze 2 Meter Länge, mit 5 cm Höhe von einer nahegelegenen Matratzenfabrik um daraus neue Auflagen zuzuschneiden. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Als nächstes musste ich einen bunten, wettertauglichen Stoff finden. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Die Auswahl ist da in Deutschland unglaublich mager, man findet vielleicht drei Varianten und die muss man trotzdem erst online bestellen. Deswegen kaufte ich zuerst einen schönen Dekostoff, der nicht für draußen gedacht war. Leider bemerkte ich schon beim Nähen, daß das wohl nichts wird und die Sonne & Katzen gaben ihm ziemlich schnell den Rest. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
My second try was a real outdoor cloth in a simple blue color, which I found a bit boring, but started to love a lot. I sewed up all cushions for the seat, the bench and the stool, and added more blue accents to the balcony, like flower pots, solar lights and a found bar stool that I turned into a flower shelf. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Mein zweiter Versuch war dann ein echter Outdoor-Stoff, unifarben in blau. Das fand ich eigentlich erst langweilig, aber mittlerweile mag ich es sehr. Ich nähte daraufhin alle Auflagen für den Stuhl, Bank und Hocker und fand außerdem weitere blaue Akzente, wie Blumentöpfe, Solarlichter - sowie einen Barhocker vom Sperrmüll, den ich in ein Blumenregal umwandelte. </i></span></div>

I wanted to remove the wooden <i><a href="http://teodeco.blogspot.com/2019/12/window-branches-fensteraste.html">branch</a></i> after Christmas, but then I thought to change out the decoration instead. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I found these classic 'light bulb' style string lights, I just draped them around the branch - and thought okay, not bad. I’m not sure, if I will add more details over time, but right now, I like it as is :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Ich fand eine kurze Lichterkette im klassischen Glühbirnen-Stil, drapierte sie über den Zweig und war damit zufrieden. Vielleicht finden sich mit der Zeit noch andere Details, die hinzukommen, aber bis jetzt mag ich es auch so :) </i></span></div>

Every time I open my folder with the Christmas pictures and projects, I stumble upon these images from Christmas 2014. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was the first Christmas that we celebrated after leaving the USA, and the last holiday season that we spend in the old house of my parents. Oh, sweet memories … :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #990000;">Jedes Mal, wenn ich meinen Ordner mit den Weihnachtsbildern und -projekten öffne, sehe ich diese Fotos aus dem Jahr 2014.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #990000;">Es war das erste Weihnachten, das wir feierten nachdem wir aus den USA wieder zurück nach Deutschland gezogen sind, und das letzte Weihnachten im alten Haus meiner Eltern. Oh, die Erinnerungen … :) </span></i><br />

When we moved to Würselen, we noticed that many people had decorated branches and sticks in their windows. We didn’t dislike it, but found it funny that it seems to be a must have for such a large proportion of the small community. Little did we know that it would grow on us, too … </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Als wir nach Würselen zogen, sahen wir bald, daß viele Leute je nach Jahreszeit unterschiedlich dekorierte Zweige und Äste in ihren Fenstern hängen hatten. Es war nicht so, daß wir die Zweige nicht mochten, aber es war doch seltsam, daß eine so große Anzahl an Menschen in dem kleinen Ort der Meinung war, man benötigt diese Zweige im Fenster. </i></span></div>

At the beginning of December I picked up a row of LED stars as a window
decoration and hung them up. The look was alright, but something was
missing and when I found a dried birch branch, I knew exactly what I had
to do ^^ </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Anfang Dezember kaufte ich eine Reihe LED Sterne als Fensterdekor, hing sie auf und dachte, okay - vielleicht ein bißchen langweilig. Als ich dann einen trockenen Birkenzweig fand, wusste ich genau was ich tun musste ^^ </i></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Last year, I bought this simple white-washed wooden star, decorated it with battery operated wire lights and thought, it still looks a bit boring. Perhaps I should paint it.<br />
This year, I actually did paint it and it was a fast, beautiful way to personalize this simple item.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Letztes Jahr kaufte ich diesen einfachen, weißen Holzstern, dekorierte ihn mit Batterie-betriebenen Drahtlichtern und dachte mir, gut, das sieht immer noch langweilig aus. Vielleicht sollte ich ihn bemalen. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Dieses Jahr habe ich genau das gemacht und es war ein schneller, schöner Weg um den Stern persönlicher zu gestalten. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
First, I cut out a heart stencil from cardboard, to draw an even heart onto the star. Then I painted most of the start into my favorite blue acrylics. I just left the edges and the heart white.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Zuerst schnitt ich mir eine Herzschablone aus Karton aus, um damit ein ebenmäßiges Herz auf den Stern aufzuzeichnen. Dann bemalte ich den Großteil des Sterns in meinem Lieblingsblauton (mit Acrylfarbe) und ließ nur die Kanten und das Herz weiß. </i></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Then I started with the pine wreath and painted the heart red. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Danach malte ich den Kranz aus Tannengrün und das Herz wurde rot ausgemalt. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The buffalo plaid pattern on the heart is actually also blue, it just looks black, because of the combination with the red. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Das Karomuster ist auch in dem gleichen Blau aufgemalt worden, es sieht nur eher schwarz aus, aufgrund der Kombination mit dem Rot. </i></span></div>

Happy 3rd of Advent from our home to yours. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We usually have real candles and an actual wreath on our Advent wreath, but this year we are celebrating the season with a new, quite curious kitten. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Therefore we are only using wax-LED candles, moss and nuts, sticks & pine cones. The kitten anyways believes that it’s basically a tray full of toys and all of those are regularly getting kicked around :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Wir wünschen Dir einen schönen dritten Advent. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Normalerweise haben wir echte Kerzen und auch einen tatsächlichen Kranz auf unserem Adventsschmuck, doch in diesem Jahr feiern wir mitsamt einem sehr neugierigen, kleinen Kätzchen. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Deswegen verwenden wir dieses Mal Wachs-LED Kerzen, Moos, sowie Nüsse, Zweige und Zapfen. Das Kätzchen glaubt ohnehin, daß es sich um eine Spielzeugschale handelt und alle diese Teile werden regelmäßig herumgekickt - oder landen in diversen Verstecken :)</i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the morning A. sent me the photo of a light fixture laying next to the glass recycling containers. We currently don’t need any lights, but the glass dome was interesting. I anyways wanted to decorate a bit more in our garden and this part could be easily converted to a Christmas decor. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, I went to the containers, grabbed the light fixture and brought the glass dome home. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Am Morgen schickte mir A. ein Foto mit einer Lampe, die neben den Glasrecycling Containern lag. Wir brauchen derzeit keine Lampen, aber die Glasform war interessant. Ich wollte ohnehin zu Weihnachten etwas mehr im Garten dekorieren, aber so recht hatte ich dazu noch keine Ideen. Doch diese Form konnte man gut als Laternenersatz verwenden. </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Also lief ich zum Glascontainer, schnappte mir die Lampe und brachte sie nach Hause. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
While washing it, a lot of the brown color came off, but that was fine with me. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I added wire lights with a timer, some birch branches and pine cones - and put the glass upside down into my old tomato pot. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thankfully it isn’t usually windy in this part of the garden since it’s sheltered from three sides, therefore I don’t think that I need to further secure my simple installation :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #660000;">Beim Waschen löste sich ein Großteil der braunen Farbe, aber das sah ohnehin besser aus. </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #660000;">Dann stopfte ich einen LED Draht mit Batterien und Zeitschaltuhr in die Glasform, dazu ein paar vermutlich nicht notwendige Birkenzweige und Fichtenzapfen (die sieht man nicht wirklich durch das Glas) - und dann kam das Glas von unten nach oben gedreht in meinen Tomatentopf. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="color: #660000;"><span style="color: #660000;">Da
dieser Teil des Gartens von drei Seiten windgeschützt ist, glaube ich
nicht, daß ich meine einfache Installation weitergehend sichern muss -
und es sieht schön aus :) </span> </span></i></div>

Recently, my cat Shweta was once again ill with a bladder infection, and while she was recovering from pain meds and antibiotics, I thought I should finally sew up that pillow cover for her that I wanted to make in a while. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She has one specific pillow on the couch and since she keeps on hanging with her claws in the fabric, it was already quite broken and urgently needed a replacement. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Vor kurzem war meine Katze Shweta einmal mehr erkrankt und während sie sich von Schmerzmitteln und Antibiotika erholte, wollte ich ihr einen neuen Kissenbezug nähen. Das hatte ich schon eine ganze Weile vor, denn sie hat ein Lieblingskissen, das unbedingt einen neuen Bezug brauchte. Sie hängt beim Schlafen immer mit ihren Krallen darin fest, deswegen entstehen viele Löcher. </i></span></div>

I got a sturdy cotton fabric, which will hopefully last for a while and planned on a simple envelope style pillow. But, I also wanted to add piping, which I was nervous about, because I never did it before. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thankfully it wasn’t as complicated as I thought, I managed to sew both fabrics and the piping together and complete the pillow. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I’m quite happy with the result and might see a lot more pillows with piping in my future :) </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Zum Glück war es aber gar nicht so kompliziert und ich konnte die beiden Stoffhälften plus Paspel zur gewünschten Kissenhülle zusammennähen. </i></span></div>

It’s a while ago that I picked up two of these stools from a curb collection. They both had a water damage and I tried many methods from bleaching to thoroughly sanding down - and while I made some progress, they still looked rather black-ish. Nevertheless, it was okay, because I also just used them for plants. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><i>Es ist schon eine Weile her, daß ich zwei dieser Hocker vom Sperrmüll mitnahm. Sie hatten beide einen Wasserschaden und ich versuchte einige Methoden, vom Bleichen bis Schleifen um das zu beheben. Es wurde auch heller, doch so ganz sauber bekam ich sie nicht wieder. Aber das war okay, weil ich sie auch nur nutzte um Pflanzen darauf zu stellen. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
But when we moved to our current apartment, A. decided that he needed one as a side table and it started bothering me how sad it looks. So one day, when I had a bit of extra paint from a different project, I started painting a tree cut design onto the surface - and added more and more rings each day. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It took longer than I thought, because I often had to wait for the paint to dry - but it was almost meditative sitting there and painting imperfect loops :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I added two layers of clear coating on top and really hope that the stool is now sufficiently protected against hot drink spills and laptop duty. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><i>Doch als wir in unsere derzeitige Wohnung umzogen, wollte A. einen der Hocker als Beistelltisch für seinen Laptop nutzen, und es störte mich immer mehr, wie traurig der Hocker aussah. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><i>Als ich dann einmal etwas weiße Farbe von einem anderen Projekt übrig hatte, fing ich an einen Baum-Querschnitt aufzumalen. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><i>Es dauerte länger als ich dachte, denn zwischen den Ringen, die täglich dazukamen, musste die Farbe trocknen, damit ich weitermalen konnte ohne etwas zu verwischen. Aber es war fast schon meditativ dort jeden Tag für einige Zeit zu sitzen und unregelmäßige Kreise zu malen :) </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #783f04;"><i>Am Ende überstrich ich alles mit zwei Lagen Klarlack und hoffe sehr, daß mein kleines Design jetzt gut gegen Getränkeränder geschützt ist. </i></span></div>

Sometimes I see something on curb and think ‘there is an obvious reason why it is laying there’ and then A. thinks it’s amazing and we need it. That’s what happened when we saw this apparently half rotten planting box on the street. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Manchmal sehe ich etwas auf dem Sperrmüll und denke ‚Das ist ziemlich offensichtlich warum es hier liegt‘ während A. der Meinung ist, es wäre großartig und wir brauchen es dringend. Das ist genau was passierte, als wir diesen halb-vergammelten Pflanzkasten auf dem Sperrmüll fanden. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NbBzjIHiz2I/XSmQ2Q2B-_I/AAAAAAAAfcU/Ct_I7vXW9BYjEoBePSQDtrT9vSrqx7GOwCEwYBhgL/s1600/1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="768" data-original-width="1024" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NbBzjIHiz2I/XSmQ2Q2B-_I/AAAAAAAAfcU/Ct_I7vXW9BYjEoBePSQDtrT9vSrqx7GOwCEwYBhgL/s640/1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Getting it home was quite a job, since it was kind of solid, dirty and gross wood. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was worried that there won’t be anything left, once I remove all the rotten parts. Thankfully, there was still enough wood left after scraping and sanding it down to continue working on it. I used a durable, extra-weatherproof wood stain on the whole thing, even inside and let it dry. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Es nach Hause zu bekommen war bereits Arbeit, denn der Kasten war schwer, dreckig und die Holzstückchen rieselten nur so herab. Ich war besorgt, daß nicht mehr genug Kasten übrigbleibt, wenn ich erst einmal alle morschen Teile entfernt habe. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Jetzt kam meine kleine Flex zum Einsatz und mit dem Schaber, Schleifer usw. arbeitete ich mich durch den gesamten Pflanzkasten. Ich war froh, daß die Außenwände eigentlich noch intakt waren, nur innen sah es schlimmer aus. Als nächsten kam eine doppelte Schicht Dauerschutz-Holzlasur von außen und auch innen zum Einsatz und dann musste es erst einmal trocknen. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
In the meantime I went to the Dollarstore to get a tarp for the inner sides; and to the garden center, where I bought a water-permeable fabric for the bottom part. You could also only use the tarp and simply cut holes in the bottom part. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once the wood stain was dried, I stapled the different layers of Tarp and fabric into the box and filled it half with green cuts from the garden and kitchen scrapes. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>In der Zwischenzeit ging ich zum Euroshop um eine Plastikplane für die Wände zu kaufen und zum Gartencenter um ein wasserdurchlässiges Vlies für den Boden zu besorgen. Man kann auch nur die Plastikplane verwenden und muss dann einfach ein paar Löcher in den Boden schneiden, damit sich kein Wasser staut. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Nachdem die Holzlasur getrocknet war, schnitt ich die Plane zurecht und nahm den Tacker, um sie an den Innenwänden zu befestigen. Dann befestigte ich auch das Vlies am Boden und füllte den Kasten zur Hälfte mit Zweigen und Grünschnitt aus dem Garten, sowie Apfelschalen und ähnlichem frischen Küchenabfall. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
After some days, I filled the rest of the box with soil and planted my herbs and vegetables. A bit of bark mulch on top was enough to persuade the cats that this isn’t a toilet. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A. then decided that the box should be standing on the lawn instead of the terrace, which means I still need to get some bricks to put them underneath, eventually. We just have to find them … </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>Nach ein paar Tagen füllte ich den Rest des Pflanzkastens mit Erde und pflanzte meine Kräuter und Gemüsepflanzen ein. Ein wenig Rindenmulch als letzte Schicht, war ausreichend, um den Katzen zu erklären, daß das keine Toilette ist. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #660000;"><i>A. entschied daraufhin, daß der Kasten direkt auf dem Rasen und nicht auf der Terrasse stehen soll - und selbst mit der Lasur, wird das Holz so viel schneller verrotten. Also suche ich jetzt noch Ziegelsteine oder Holz, auf die ich den Kasten stellen kann … </i></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some projects work out so fast from start to finish, others take years to complete for no apparent reason. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One side of this piece of wood, was done in 2015 (<a href="http://teodeco.blogspot.com/2015/06/diy-welcome-sign-willkommensschild.html">link</a>), but when I wanted to make the other side ready for summer all trouble started. Back then ombre walls were on trend, so my turquoise got a bit ombre as well, making the color lighter on top. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I added the ‘easy breezy’ and thought I’m done, but it looked so empty. Therefore I started adding palm trees, and never finished them. Fast forward to 2019, I had a lot of white paint from another project to use for something, so I finally finished the palm trees. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Manche Projekte beginnt und beendet man scheinbar mühelos, andere brauchen dagegen Jahre um endlich beendet zu werden. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>So verhielt es sich auch mit dieser Baumscheibe. Die Vorderseite hatte ich bereits 2015 bemalt (<a href="http://teodeco.blogspot.com/2015/06/diy-welcome-sign-willkommensschild.html">Link</a>), die Rückseite sollte zum Sommer passen. Damals waren gerade Wände mit Farbverlauf im Trend, also hat auch mein Türkis einen leichten ‚Ombre‘ Effekt erhalten, mit hellerer Farbe oben und intensiverem Türkis unten. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Dann malte ich den Text dazu und dachte ich bin fertig, aber es sah so leer aus. Also begann ich Palmen dazuzumalen und beendete sie nicht. Erst in diesem Frühjahr 2019 hatte ich plötzlich bei einem anderen Projekt regelmäßig etwas weiße Acrylfarbe übrig, mit der ich dann endlich die Palmen fertig malte. </i></span></div>

It took me just two more months to be done with the flowers as well, one final clear coating on top and that’s it - I’m done :) </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first color that I added to the garden in early spring, was painting this old, rusty lizard which my husband was ready to throw away the moment we moved in. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since we didn’t know if it belongs to the owner, we kept it, but it was no joy to look at. Therefore I used my normal acrylics colors and simply started painting it one day - even adding a bit of glitter. I finished it using a clear coating at the end to make it outdoor weather durable. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I don’t know if it will last well in the long run, but so far it survived a whole spring of rain, hailstorms and even snow without any issues. I just might paint the yellow parts into copper, eventually. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Die erste Farbe, die ich im Vorfrühling in den Garten brachte, bekam diese alte, rostige Eidechse - die mein Mann wegwerfen wollte, sobald wir eingezogen waren. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Wir wussten nicht, ob sie dem Eigentümer gehört, deswegen blieb sie wo sie war, aber eine Freude war es nicht, sie anzusehen. Deswegen nahm ich eines Tages meine normalen Künstleracrylfarben und begann draufloszumalen - ich habe sogar ein bißchen Glitzerfarbe mit eingemischt ^^. Am Ende wurde alles mit ‚outdoor‘ Klarlack überstrichen, damit es länger hält. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Ich weiß nicht, ob das ausreicht um alles wetterfest zu machen, aber bisher hat die Farbe einen gesamten Frühling voller Regen, Hagel und selbst Schnee problemlos überstanden. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #4c1130;"><i>Ich werde nur vermutlich die gelben Bereiche irgendwann in Kupfer umstreichen, damit sie weniger Osterei-mäßig aussehen :) </i></span><br />

We made a hike through Wurmtal, in a loop almost till Aachen. After the tour, we had food at our favorite Bavarian restaurant. (I still have to get used to A. wearing glasses.) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Wir wanderten durch das Wurmtal, in einer Runde, die uns fast bis nach Aachen führte. Danach ging es zum späten Mittagessen ins nette bayrische Restaurant. </i></span></div>

I do have a nice scarf storage box, but it’s not that easy to keep on taking out the scarves that I use most of the time without creating a mess. Therefore, I made a simple scarf rack for my frequently used scarves. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #20124d;"><i>Ich habe eine schöne Schal-Aufbewahrungskiste - aber, wenn man ständig Schals herausnimmt und wieder zurückwirft, wird diese schnell unübersichtlich. Für die am häufigsten benutzten Schals habe ich jetzt diese kleine Aufhängemöglichkeit gebastelt. </i></span></div>

Usually, I decorate at the end of November for the holidays, but this year it was a bit of a struggle. I did decorate, didn’t like it, removed things, changed things… and now it’s almost Christmas and I’m still not done. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Therefore I decided to leave it as is (unless inspiration hits me in the very last moment) and just accept that I simply can’t get it right this year. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Normalerweise dekoriere ich Ende November alles weihnachtlich, doch in diesem Jahr war es schwieriger als sonst.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Also habe ich beschlossen alles so unfertig zu lassen wie es ist (es sei denn im letzten Moment weiß ich doch noch was ich will) und schlichtweg zu akzeptieren, daß ich es in diesem Jahr nicht mehr richtig hinbekomme. </i></span></div>

Despite my ‘construction sites’ I also have enough that I’m fine with in a largely traditional color pattern of red / green and many natural, wooden elements. I also added more golden and clear glass ornaments this year, and concentrated my decor to the living and dining area. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next year I want to add up more outdoor options for garden and balcony as well. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nevertheless, <b>I wish you a wonderful, relaxing Christmas time and a great start into 2019 :)</b> </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Im nächsten Jahr suche ich auch nach mehr Möglichkeiten um Garten und Balkon zu schmücken. </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Two years ago, we spent a wonderful Diwali in India where I also picked up rangoli stencils, which are an easy way to make your own rangoli. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since I do live in an area, where no one really appreciates powdered colors in the hallway, I used a tray for a small decoration. And since I don’t have any colors at hand, flour had to be sufficient. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Vor zwei Jahren verbrachten wir die Diwalifeierlichkeiten in Indien. Damals brachte ich mir auch ein paar Rangoli Schablonen mit nach Hause, mit denen man ganz schnell eigene Rangolis (Bilder aus Farbpuder, die häufig im Hausflur gestreut und regelmäßig erneuert werden) streuen kann. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Da ich in einer Gegend wohne, in der niemand gerne Farbpuder im Hausflur hätte, habe ich mein Rangoli stattdessen auf einem Tablett angerichtet. Und weil man Farbpuder in Würselen nicht ohne weiteres kaufen kann (online vermutlich), habe ich Mehl verwendet :) </i></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I used colored paper underneath the stencils. Then I added the flour using a strainer, spread it carefully with a paper towel, while holding the stencil firmly in place with my other hand. Then I lifted the stencils, decorated the tray further with colorful diyas (oil lamps) and there we go… my simple rangoli was ready :) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #990000;">Unter der Schablone verwendete ich Buntpapier, damit man auch etwas sieht. Das Mehl streute ich dann mit einem kleinen Sieb über die Schablonen. Danach verrieb ich dieses mit einem Küchentuch, während ich mit der anderen Hand die Schablone festhielt. </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #990000;">Danach konnten die Schablonen entfernt werden, das Tablett wurde außerdem mit bunten Diyas (Öllämpchen) geschmückt - und dann war dieses einfache Rangoli auch schon fertig :) </span></i></div>

<br />
I like painting a lot, I just don’t like my tendency to add up too many details and patterns on any given subject. I understand that this is some sort of personal style that I follow, and I often like the final result, but in between I’m too bored to continue painting patterns and give up.<br />
Therefore I tried painting really small acrylic pictures, but it didn’t work, I ended up in those detail things again. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Ich male eigentlich gerne, ich mag es nur nicht, wenn ich mich in zu vielen Details und Mustern verstricke. Ich verstehe das zwar als eine Art von persönlichem Stil - und meistens gefällt es mir auch am Ende, aber zwischendurch bin ich einfach nur gelangweilt und schaffe es damit gar nicht erst zu Ende zu malen. </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Deswegen habe ich im letzten Jahr versucht, nur ganz kleine Acrylbilder zu malen, aber keine Chance, die Details hatten mich fest im Griff. </i></span><br />

So, I returned to water colors. It’s easy to paint something small with a few brush strokes and I find it quite satisfactory. - I just have to keep on reminding myself to not add up patterns or choose my smallest brush sizes. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Deswegen versuche ich es einmal mehr mit Aquarellfarben. Es ist einfach etwas mit ein paar Pinselstrichen und wenigen Farben zu malen und es gefällt mir gerade gut. </i></span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><i>Ich muss mich nur ermahnen nicht doch wieder Muster hinzuzufügen bzw. nach den ganz kleinen Pinselstärken zu greifen. </i></span><br />
