Painting with purple

Even though I’ve heard about the Intentional Camera Movement, I haven’t tried it until today. So I grabbed my camera and ventured out to get creative.

I took my time in experimenting with different subjects, and this purple feather was one of them. I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this process.

Twigift

Twigift is a cute little shop located  in the heart of old town Bratislava, with handmade creations and unique art pieces. You can find anything your heart desires from an array of  interesting things that are made out of wood, yarn, metal, clay, textile, glass etc. The warm ambiance and the  friendly personnel makes you feel welcome and cozy.

I loved spending time in this shop during my stay there. It was, undoubtedly,  one of my favorite shops.

If you ever visit Bratislava make sure to stop by. I’m sure you will be as captivated by it as I was.

My grandpa’s gift

My grandpa is a retired fisherman and one of the many things he liked to do was to collect sea conch shells that were caught in his fishing nets. He would then proceed to dry them under the sun, then he would clean them thoroughly and display them on shelves. He is very proud of his big collection and he happily gives conch shells to family and friends as a gift.

At first, we didn’t know what to do with the numerous conch shells that he gave us but in the end we realized that we could repurpose them  instead of keeping them as decorative pieces only. And therefore we transformed them into pots for small cactuses and other succulent plants.

Needless to say that my grandpa is very pleased that we found a creative way to use his gifts instead of  keeping his conch shells hidden in a drawer.
