inspired by an intelligent lady on her blog i dug out my jute cross stitch calendar i made when my children were small......sssssmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaal kids.
there are fairies with colorful balloons flying high in the sky........they are holding strings of balloons ,..........very tightly in their hands
calendar stitched with black floss
under the words calendar there are three holes for day-month –and yera
i stenstilled the days months of the year and the year on the ribbons which were joined into a ring ...my daughter and son got exited to rool the ribbon for the day ......every day to appear on the calander and once for a new month.....and so on........now they are grown up.............and the calander is not in use for many yyyyyyyeaaarsssssss.it was placed in our box for aaaaaaaaaaaaaalong.
Now i will make use of it.
I will mount it on the braid foot-mat placed at the back yard in my house.......
there are peacocks facing each other
a lamp in blue
a fine border(sorry for the blurry picture)
i love this calendar a lot that’s why it was protected in my nest
now i will use it to give a new lease of life to my foot mat which is looking shabby .but protected at the back with a burlap.i will frog the burlap mount the calendar on it and .will replace ......join the backing again on the right side..........let see how it will be...........the old+old= to.....OOOOOOOKKKKKKKKKK!
