These tiny flags are to be used for Emils confirmation. They are so simple to make - masking tape is absolutely a gorgeous thing!
They are going to hang on branches - without leaves - which we will spray paint white and put in vases on the tables. Along with the flags the little skateboards are going to hang there as well. That is if it all looks all right together...
We are having quite a few red-letter days this summer. This Monday I turn 40, the following Friday it's Emils party and in the end of June, we can celebrate Anne-Sophie when she becomes a student.
My birthday will be oh so quiet. That's just how I like it, and for now I find it a lot more important to use my energy on preparing a wonderful day for Emil.
And when things settle down again over summer, then I might do something about the fact that I no longer are in my thirties (age has never been an issue to me before, but all of a sudden I think that 40 years sounds different in the wrong way!)
I'm off - more flags are to be made...

Du skaber så smukke rammer for dine børns fester !
ReplyDeleteJeg kan huske dengang er blev 40...Det var svært !!
Og jeg synes heller ikke jeg var særlig optaget af alder, men 40- det slog mig lidt ud !
Nu er jeg 46 (!) og har stadigvæk ikke vænnet mig til det :-)
ENDELIG!! Nu har jeg prøvet på at svare dig de sidste 2 dage, Miri - men Blogger har været fuldstændig tosset.
ReplyDeleteHvor er jeg glad for at du synes det. Jeg forsøger at sætte mig ind i hvad mine "børn" vil kunne lide, og så håber jeg ellers bare på det bedste. ;))
Og dét der med at blive 40 år...Jeg kan godt forstå at du synes, at det var svært at vænne sig til. Sådan har jeg det nu.
Min mor har altid sagt til mig op igennem min opvækst, at man aldrig skal lade alder styre sit liv, men bare være den man mærker indeni. Og hvor har hun ret. Jeg tror og håber ikke at jeg vil glemme min barnlige side - nogensinde. :))
Hav en dejlig lørdag.
Det er sket ikke SÅ slemt... Det der med at blive 40 :-)
ReplyDeleteMin morfar sagde engang til mig, at det var da bedre end alternativet, men da var han også næsten 90, og jeg var lige blevet 30, og havde meget ondt i Alderen.
Nu bliver jeg snart 42, og må indrømme at jeg egentligt synes, at jeg nok passer fint til min alder... ;-) jeg er efterhånden blevet alderssvarende;-)
Det er en supergod idé med flagranken og de hvide grene, den idé vil jeg gerne snuppe, når vi skal til konfirmationer i næste uge. Det passer perfekt til en dreng!
Det er godt at høre Rosanna. :))Det er noget mærkeligt noget dét med alder.
ReplyDeleteFaktisk tror jeg at det sværeste er hvordan andre ser på én, og forventer at man skal reagere og være på en bestemt måde - i en bestemt alder.
Så længe man har sig selv med, og ikke ændrer adfærd og stil pga. en given alder, så tror jeg at det hele arter sig nemmere. Sådan har jeg det i hvert tilfælde. ;)
Jeg er glad for at du kan bruge idéen med grenene og flagene. Jeg mangler bare at sætte ringe i de små skateboards og finde de helt rigtige grene. :))
Hav endejlig lørdag.
Happy birthday for monday.
ReplyDeleteI too turned 40 this year, and up until now birthday age never worried me, but now I feel like I'm on the other end of life,I'm not sure I'll ever get used to it......
Thank you so much, Kerrie. :)) Right now I feel just like you and think that I might never get used to being 40...and more next year!
ReplyDeleteAge is a very individual thing and to me it didn't matter until now. BUT I will definitely try my very best to keep myself young at heart - ALWAYS. :))
