My Weekly Suggestion: VerdeCardamomo

Welcome back in My Coffee Room, this week I will introduce you 

“ VerdeCardamomo”

 

Few days ago thanks to a post shared by Cristina Torrengo, from Terre da Vino, 

I discovered Claudia’s little world: VerdeCardamomo

Once in Claudia's blog the images caught all my attention, 

 in particular this one.

Sara Arts suggests VerdeCardamomo

  

What a “Delicious Welcome"!!!!

  I like first its lights and shadows, 

second the old style dish and the crystal glass…. simply perfect, in my opinion..;))),  

 and third but not least she suggests to taste her 

“ Canapè di Pain d'epices con coulis di barbabietola rossa, patè di anatra all'arancia 

e piccola gelatina di Bella Estate”   

with Moscato Passito Bella Estate produced by Terre da Vino….,  

one of my favourite Italian wine!!!!!

♥♥♥

Claudia is "VerdeCardamomo"...

Take few minutes and read her “About me” page,

 you will realize how much love and passion there is behind her great blog.

  I had the pleasure to contact Claudia in occasion of this post, 

and ask her which among her pictures loves more…

 She is so sweet and  sent me this one:  
her own “Ferratelle al Cardamomo”

Sara Arts suggests VerdeCardamomo

Ferratelle come from Abruzzo, 

another Italian region and she shows how to make, here,  her own version with cardamom!!!!

Sara Arts suggests VerdeCardamomo

Sara Arts suggests VerdeCardamomo

Wondering in VerdeCardamomo 

 I have found how I would like to taste them:  

with her Confettura di Mele Cotogne Bio e Uva fragola

;)))))))))

Go and take a tour of  

VerdeCardamomo

You will not do without dreaming of 

how could be lovely to try and reproduce her receips…..at home!!!!

Thanks to have passed by and stopped for a while...
 the time for a cup of Coffee together!!!!

Today I introduce you a new “little world”:  

Lotti’s Welt

 

Sara Arts - Lotti's Welt Laden

Two month ago I was looking for playful and original fabrics nearby and…

my research stopped in Lotti’s Welt website.  

 Its coulorful images caught immediately my attention and 

after a long tour among its pages I loved it. 

Sara Arts - Lotti's Welt Stoffe

If you read the “ Über Lotti’s Welt” page 

you should know more about it and discover 

how passion and creativity could make the difference.

I have to tell the truth this time I am quite lucky, because Lotti’s Welt shop is on the Web, 

but also in Zürich…easy to reach for me…Yuppy!!!!...

and…the day after my discovery I was there..;))))

Sara Arts - Lottis Welt Laden

What a great exposition of handmade creations:

all for little boys, girls...and more!!!!   

 Here some picture of them, but you will find more 

both in the website and facebook page.

Sara Arts - Lotti's Welt stuff

In this occasion I have met Deborah. 

She started her Lotti’s Welt adventure three years ago and I understand why 

the friends of Lotti’s Welt continue to grow: 

she is brilliant!!!

“In a world in which everything is going faster and faster”, as Deborah wrote, 
Lotti's Welt is a corner in which it’s easy to stop, relax and 

find great things  

handmade with love

Sara Arts - Lotti's Welt stuff

Don’t stop and follow me, soon I will tell you 

the story of how Sara Arts and Lotti’s Welt

My Weekly Suggestion: Vilt à la Kim

Welcome to My Coffee Room…..this time I invite you to join a cup of coffee with me and “Vilt à la Kim”.  Be careful..;))))…you might fall in love with Kim’s creations… as I did.

Sara Arts suggests Vilt à la Kim

I discovered her “Coloured Felt World” thanks DaWanda blog. She has realized and shared a joyful DIY on “How to make Needle felted Acorns”.  Thanks so much Kim, it is gorgeous!!!

Sara Arts suggests Vilt à la Kim

 

This year I am in the mood for Autumn, as you could see, 

so this Tutorial seems to be perfect for a "to do list" in October. 

It would be great to realize several little Needle felted Acorns with all the family during these weekends, in which we could be forced at home cause the weather..;((((…

Go and have a look!!!!..;)))))…

if you realize them, don’t forget to send me a picture!!!!...;)))))

see you 

for the next Coffee break,

Eccoci nella mia Coffee Room…oggi vi invito a sorseggiare una tazza di caffè con me e

“Vilt à la Kim”. Date un’occhiata e fate attenzione..;))))...ci si innamora subito 

delle creazione di Kim,..a me è successo.

Ho conosciuto questo coloratissimo mondo grazie al blog di DaWanda. Kim ha realizzato un tutorial su Come fare Ghiande con il feltro e lo ha condiviso nel sul blog. 

Grazie Kim è bellissimo!!!!

Quest’anno sono innamorata dell’ autunno e penso che questa guida su come fare piccole ghiande colorate sia un’idea fantastica per passare in famiglia il weekend, quando in Ottobre il tempo non è dei migliori e siamo costretti a rimanere a casa.

Date un’occhiata..;)))... 

e se realizzate le ghiande ricordatevi di mandarmi una foto della vostra opera!!..;))))

alla prossima pausa caffè,

xx
