Fall, oh Fall...

I was into very busy days...
...and so neglected my blog! :(
But I had pretty fun taking pictures outside...
The Fall is now at his peak even in the morning the streets are wet and almost frozen...

I want to share my pics with you... But due to some internet connection problems I can't share all of them.
Friday I'll have my new router and so I'll be able to upload more of them.
I'm very happy about those pictures. I had a wonderful afternoon...
I brought home lots of acorns and buckeyes...
Fall in the Alps it's something unforgettable! <3


Today I'll leave and untill Friday I'll be in Rome with Nicola.
See you soon!

Embroidery

Today I'm into "Sunday Laziness" mode.
Maybe because I just watched a movie with my BF ♥ Nick, both sprawled on my single bed. 


I just don't know in what or in where this blog could turn into...
What I want to do is a little personal space full of colors, sweet things, positivity and a lot of fun. Something to share with someone, simply.
Today I went again in the woods with Nick and my little 3 fluffy friends.
And, OMG...
Fall doesn't stops to fuel up my creativity... or better... Fall doesn't stops to telling (and remembering) me that I need to organize myself in order to start a new amazing way of life. So stop being anxious, angry, lazy and  messy! I just need to focus my abilities into something good. 
In facts I've been always a messy girl (very very very messy) and I always jumped from a thing to an other. I do and start so many things that most of times I don't finish them.
This blog maybe could help me being more resolute.
I never believed in myself and in my capabilities but the things are changed since few years... fortunately.
(Adolescence is something I would not repeat for no reason at all, and the aftermaths can follow us for many other years... Calm, I did not so scary things :D )
Is weird how the human being changes with the years. More than weird, I should say curious.
So, I've got so many ideas that I don't know really where to start.

For today you're safe 
I'll not start today with my chaos.
:)
I'm going to post some pictures that I took in the wood this morning and some pics I found surfing and fishing around the web.

How cute are these embroidered owls?!
Take a look at the link below!
It will not be wasted time! ;)



the little Waterfall lives again after the storms of the last nights
And a lot of yummy chestnuts as a snack 


Hope you loved the link...
...if not, just google "cuteness" for some sweet sweet pictures ♥ !!!

Love, Chiara

Autumn - Autunno



I love the Fall.
I love the light that's paints the Fall. I especially love the colors. The mild temperatures (although during the afternoon temperatures are reaching historical record). I love the Fruits.
My memories are running fast to the early years of my life. At the times of the elementary school, when we were accustomed to steal the dark bunches of grapes from the trucks in the queue, waiting in the alley behind the school exit. They were waiting to be able to unload their precious cargo in the small winery of the town... Now it's different. The wineries have grown and have moved from the small towns of Trentino Alto Adige/ South Tyrol to the suburbs but the air that you breathe in these parts in October is always magical.
I love the creativity that blooms in the fall, as if the trees with their dancing leaves, were inspiring us.
The food, the old grandmas fabrics, the colored pencils, the feathers, the wooden buttons, my mother's shawl, the empty cans of food of my cats, the pumpkins, the pastel shades ...
Anything can become Art. Everything can be fun.
And if it's too hard to imagine, just close your eyes and run back with a little imagination and become kids again .... when the school was over and we were stealing some bunches of grapes!






Adoro l'Autunno.
Adoro la luce che c'è in Autunno. Ne adoro i colori soprattutto. La temperatura mite (anche se durante il pomeriggio sfioriamo temperature da record). I frutti.
I miei ricordi corrono rapidi ai primi anni di scuola elementare, quando all'uscita noi bambini rubavamo i grappoli di uva scura dai carri in coda in attesa nel viottolo dietro l'uscita. Attendevano di poter scaricare il loro prezioso carico nella piccola cantina vinicola del paese... Ora è diverso. Le cantine si sono ingrandite e sono uscite dai piccoli paesi del Trentino Alto Adige e si sono spostate più in periferia ma l'aria che si respira da queste parti ad Ottobre è sempre magica.
Amo la creatività che sboccia in Autunno, quasi siano gli alberi con le loro foglie danzanti, ad ispirarci.
La cucina, i tessuti, i pastelli colorati, le piume, i bottoni, lo scialle della mamma, le lattine vuote del mangime dei miei gattoni...
Tutto può diventare Arte. Tutto può divertire.
E se è troppo difficile basta chiudere gli occhi e correre un poco indietro con la fantasia e ritrovarsi di nuovo bambini.... all'uscita di scuola intenti a prendere nascosto un grappolo d'uva appena colto!!!
