Our Special Day, Marriage !

Mr and Miss Zanotti-Tancini are glad to introduce you to their very special day ! 

For the first time in the history of the town (I'm not joking uh, it's really the first time!) we could get married in a ex church where, since XIX century, there is not roof (before there was a roof, then after years they replaced it but the new one was too heavy and they had to remove it, and since this time the San Francesco Church is without roof!)

I think it is a very romantic place and fortunately the weather was clement : no rain !!

And then my father, making another little and preciuos speech

We wanted a simple wedding, for a special day with friends and family and we got it ! 

No rain, not too warm, happiness, love ! 

At the moment I have only these pictures but when my friends will send my their picture I will update them!

Wedding gifts! #1

We are waiting for the 1st of September, the wedding day! We made almost all the thing we had to do for the organization and we can't wait to see our guests and family which will join us from Spain, Portugal, England and Italy of course!
On Monday two of my maids of honour (we will celebrate one wedding in Italy -the civil one- and one in Spain -the religious one- so we have more than two maid and man of honour ) Anna and Lara which are also two of my closest friends came here for dinner and -surprise!- they bring us our first wedding gift! You had to see my face when I opened the box. Maybe once I said them I would like to buy it because I love it, and its design but yesterday I really dindn't expect it !

Ta-daaaaaaa

The wonderful, original, irresistible, red one, Kitchen Aid !!!!! 

Perfect in our kitchen! 

We were in the living room and I started to jump all around for the happiness! And I had tears in my eyes!

My lovely friends, I really adore them, said that from today onwards I will have to cook them cakes and biscuits for breakfast. Well, consider it done! 

Thank you so much my dear friends! 

We made me (and Dvd of course) soooo happy :-)

A catbed for Totoro

Goodmorning friends!

When we moved in this house, I decided to make a new catbed for Totoro, because I did not like the catbeds on sale. So I bought a ball of tissue that is usually used to make bags.

Then when I finished the ball, the only one I bought, I continued with wool-acrylic yarn of different colours

And as you can see, Totoro appreciate very very much his new bed! 

Totoro loves to have dozes, lots of dozes everyday, probably he learned from Dvd ..

My sweet sleepyheads ! 

Hippo Pillow

Hello Dears,
the second gift I gave to my cousin (she has two daughters, so I made a present for the older too) is the  Hippo Pillow by One and Two Company (like Butterfly Mobile) . I had some difficult to make it because it is crocheted in two pieces (front and back) and I couldn't succeed to make them identical. But at the end I think I had a good result.

Ta-daaaaaah! Mrs Hippo on the chair :-D

Thank you for reading my blog! 

Have a nice day, kisses !

Butterfly Mobile

Hello !
Since I live in this new house I'm not able to write posts...I don't know why..  but I have a lot of things to show you. In last months I made one knitted shawl (the first one!), a crochet shrug, a bikini for a friend of mine. Then I'm doing 2 little gifts for the children of my cousin and a catbed for Totoro ! So, I have a million of picture to updade!

Today I will show you the Butterfly Mobile  that I decided to give as a gift to my cousin for the birth of her second child, she is born some weeks ago. First of all I made the cloud (but I forgot to take a picture of it before I joined it to the butterflies).

Then I made the butterflies 

And then I joined all the pieces 

Do you like it? I think it is wonderful! 

I say sorry to you all for my rare posts. I wish you a good and sunny week! 

Thank you for reading my little blog! 

See you !

Changes

Hi sweeties!

I'm back! Yesterday I passed my second last exam so I can update my blog again.

When we decide to look for a house where to live together we find a very very small two-roomed flat of 27 metres! Then we moved in another two-roomed flat of 50 metres and finally we find a bigger house, I think 100 metres more or less! With a balcony and a guest room (a single bed but it's a guest room!) !! This is a very big change for me! In addition to this, there is a wonderful haberdashery with lots of yarns in the same street of our home ^.^
We finished the move in the new -provisional- home (we think to stay here 1 year more or less, while looking for an house up for sale) and now I can have a rest for a little while :-)

At the moment the mess is to big to show you the house, but I will show you little details I found here once we came back from Parma..

My lovely mom hanged up these filet crochet curtains that my great grandmother crocheted several years ago (lot of years ago..), and she put some lavender on them..they are so cute, aren't they? and romantic !

And out of this window (it is in the kitchen) she put all the aromatic herbs I wanted to buy

oregano

majoram

 thyme

basil

sage

rosemary

I found also a half-full fridge, inclusive of ice cream and Kinder Cioccolato ^.^ . I was touched for her nice gesture, my mom has been so gentle that I think I will tattoo "I love mom" on my arm, like sailors! 

I wish you a happy week and day, 

see you soon for new project and pictures!

Arrivederci Parma Ciao

 Good morning!

I spent last two weeks bunding all our things, and we spent last two weekends to bring them in the new house. Today is the last day here, so this is the last post from Parma!!
I lived in Parma for 5 years (Dvd 10!) I had a very good time, new friends, new things to do, university... but now it is time to go!

Have a nice day!
See you soon from Fano :-)
