Do you have anything at home that is unique, handmade?

You are probably traveling with your thoughts around the closet, looking for a memory, if you have ever indulged in something unique, handmade.

There is no need to browse through clothes or look for a unique bracelet, it will be enough if you look around. You will quickly come across some unique product. Most uniques are created during childhood.

Each child's drawing, paper flower, inscription on the greeting card, necklace of colored pasta, snowman made of paper roll is unique.
Handwork.
Unrepeatable.
Priceless.

Do you store them?
I do.
Products and memories attached to them.

This coat will also be unique. Handwork. Even if I tried so hard, I wouldn't be able to make two exactly the same.

🖌 My dear assistant

The hardest thing for me is writing posts. Most of the time, my work stops right here.

Everything is ready, the sewing machine has done its thing, the embroideries are in place, the clothes are sewn and ready for photography. Then it comes to a series of posts on social media and it all revolves around like in slow motion. Sometimes it even happens to me that I write but don’t publish.

I complicate things too much. That's when my 10-year-old son Svit comes to my aid. This time he advised me on how to prepare posts.

Here are his 7 tips for me.
1. First, decide why you need it.
2. Imagine a story.
3. Select the thumbnails to use.
4. Set the page size and divide it into parts.
5. Insert one thumbnail in each part.
6. Write a short text next to each picture.
7. Inspect and correct.

That's it. It's quite simple.
Yeah, right?
Noup, not for me!

Hustle and bustle or silence?

Until a few years ago, I was accompanied by children’s voices throughout the day. From entering through the school gates, and to the end of class (and sometimes a little longer), my day was full of childish shouts, curious heads, and warm palms that knew how to squeeze, hug, caress. Express gratitude the moment they felt it. It was beautiful for me and I carry an infinite number of beautiful memories with me.

But my decision to make my childhood dreams come true led me to give up the teaching profession for a while and embark on an independent path.

I work in silence now. And I like it. I love that when sewing and embroidering, I can think about how my product will help develop a child's imagination, expand the vocabulary and the ability for a child to express himself loudly and thus prepare for speech performances that will be awaiting in life.

I have both now. Children's bustle in the heart and silence in the room.

What about you?
Do you prefer to work in the hustle and bustle or silence?

My assistant took a break.

Cats are said to sleep 80% of the day. Well, it's not quite like that here.

But there is order! And special signs of communication.
- Meowing when it's time to get up in the morning.
- Muse at the foot when she is hungry.
- Squats if she's scared.
- Jumps when she wants to play.
- And when she's asleep, she falls asleep.

Anyone who has a pet at home quickly recognizes those few message signs. We react. We do what our pet asks or wants us to do.

What about us?

Do we recognize fatigue, exhaustion, hunger ... early enough? We are so alert that we know how to listen when our body tells us that there is too much of everything.

Let's be like cats.
Let's sleep!
Then everything else will go easier too.

🚁 My air traffic controller.

Our cat is always next to me.
Monitors, observes and controls me.

And, she doesn’t mind the buzzing of the sewing machine - she probably thinks I’m purring.

🌺 “Mari, life is not a flourishing field”

It's raining outside, there's no sun.
So, forget the smell of good, softness of ripe grass ...
And, like Marie, stop writing songs.

Or ... maybe you can try this ...

🌺

Lie down on the floor or a bed.
Lie completely still.

Close our eyes.

Breathe relaxed.
Listen to your breathing.

You woke up to a pleasant sunny morning.
Birds chirping through the window.
Listen to their singing.

Put on your favorite outfit.
Put on your shoes.

Walk to the edge of the forest.
You see a meadow.

Sit on the soft fragrant grass.
You are surrounded by colorful flowers.
White, yellow, orange, purple, ...
Choose the most beautiful. Support her flower with your palm.
Smell it.
Observe its colors.
And enjoy.

Look at the sky and enjoy the warmth of the sun.

Then get up slowly.
It's time to go home.

Now stretch, yawn and open your eyes.
We're back in the room again but you can still feel the warmth of the sun, smell the fragrant grass and remember the beautiful colors of the flowers.

🌺

Let this feeling accompany you throughout the day.

🧒🏼
Even children love to listen to such guided visualizations. They help them calm down. We just need to pay attention to telling them slowly, with a calm voice and with pauses, so that they have enough time to convey your words to their imaginary world.

⏰ Dolgih ali kratkih pet minut?

Samo še trenutek mi daj.

Se vam zdijo besede znane?
Verjetno jih tudi vi kdaj rečete svojemu otroku.
In resno mislite. Trenutek, dva, pa bom ob tebi.

In potem mine trenutek, mine minuta, morda dve.
In prošnja se spet ponovi.
Odgovor je enak. Samo še trenutek, takoj bom.

Spomnim se predavanja na fakulteti, ko nam je profesorica povedala primer o otroku in času. Za vedno se mi je vtisnil v spomin.

Ob dogovorjeni uri je pri njih doma pozvonil domofon.
"Mami, a sem lahko še malo zunaj?" vpraša hči.
"Lahko ... Še pet mimut."
Nekaj trenutkov tišine, nato pa vprašanje: "Mami, a dolgih ali kratkih pet minut?"

Mlajši otroci namreč še nimajo razvitega občutka za čas in jim gre na tem mestu pogledati skozi prste.

Kaj pa mi? Odrasli smo v času dobro orientirani. Vemo, da ena minuta traja 60 sekund, da je ena ura dolga 60 minut in da naš delovni dan traja recimo osem ur. Pa je to res?

Meni se ničkolikokrat zgodi, da je ena ura enkrat kratka, drugič pa dolga. Ko kolesarim, gre ura hitro, ko likam, gre počasi. Ko gledam zanimiv film, dve uri mineta kot bi trenil, ko stojim v vrsti in čakam, se mi zdi, da bom v eni uri pognala korenine. Ko sedem za šivalni stroj, ure letijo kot nore, med pisanjem objav pa se mi vleče vsaka minuta.

Skratka, veseli me, da so moji delovni dnevi večinoma sestavljeni iz tistih, "ta kratkih" ur.

Pa ti? Koliko delaš?
Kratkih ali dolgih osem ur?

Sometimes I feel like I’m putting figures on fabric like I’m playing a Scrabble game.

Only when the letters are folded correctly does the word form. Or in my case: only when the details stack, they form a whole.

So get to work!

✒️ Zamislim si in izvedem

Ja, drži.
A vmes je še kar nekaj korakov.
Predvsem pa je precej dela po metodi poskusov in napak.

Najprej narišem skico na večji papir. To je osnovna skica, ki ima dovolj prostora za viharjenje možganov. Tukaj si da moja domišljija duška. Na list zmečem vse, kar mi pade na pamet. Od oblike, detajlov in koščkov blaga. Ta list ima pa tudi kar nekaj vprašajev. To so težave na katere bom po vsej verjetnosti naletela. Včasih me recimo skrbi ustrezna barva zadrge ali oblika gumba, pa notranji šiv, barvni odtenek prejice za vezenje. Take, sladke skrbi, bi rekla.

Potem naredim končno skico.
Iz končne skice naredim sliko končnega oblačila.
In potem tako ostane do konca.

Ha, ha! Nikoli.
Vedno še kaj spremenim, dodam ali odvzamem.

🌷 Kdo je moj navdih

Pri prvi izvedbi oblačila imam navadno v mislih točno določeno osebo.

Za ta plašček sem izbrala Asjo, 5 letno hčerko naših družinskih prijateljev.

Asja je čudovita deklica. Skrbna, nasmejana, vedoželjna, prisrčno nagajiva, prijazna in malo bossy (kot skrbi njeno mami), a v resnici jo vsi ostali vidimo kot tisti nepogrešljiv člen, ki bo organiziral žur, pripravil presenečenje za udeležence in poskrbel, da bodo vsi gostje dobili priložnost, da se pokažejo v najboljši luči. Vsekakor pa se bodo snidenja še dolgo spominjali. Taka je, ugrabi ti srce.

Asja pa ima še eno ključno osebnostno lastnost za ta moj izdelek. Je namreč izjemno iznajdljiva. In, če kdo, potem je ona tista deklica z rdečo kapico, ki se hudobnemu volku ne bi pustila kar tako požreti. Ukanila bi ga. V to sem popolnoma prepričana.

Srečno, draga Asi!
Hodi ob meni in mi bodi v navdih.

Tvoja,
Urša

💡Kako se rodi ideja

Nekatere ideje se porodijo v trenutku. Na sprehodu, za kuhinjsko mizo, ob vožnji s kolesom in včasih tudi ponoči.

Druge ideje pa zorijo počasi.
Kot v pesmi meni tako ljubega pesnika Toneta Pavčka.
"Najprej je sama tema,
najprej je velik nič,
potlej je majcena deklica
in iz nje ljubek deklič."

In tako počasi se je oblikovala tudi ideja plaščka Rdeča kapica, na katerega je izvezena pravljica. Dolgo je zorela in doživela je nemalo sprememb in popravkov.

In končno je tu.
Moja.
Pa ne samo zato, ker podobne nisem našla nikjer na spletu ali trgovini, ampak zato, ker prihaja naravnost iz mojega srca.

Skozi idejo, snovanje in delo me je spremljala ena sama misel.
No, predstava.
Vizualizacija.

Predstavljala sem si natrpan dan multitasking mame. Na urniku ima nešteto opravil, njena petletna hčerka pa si želi njene pozornosti. Mama jo poskuša vsaj malo zamotiti in ji predlaga igro za igro, da sama opravi nujno delo. A deklica se zamoti za nekaj minut, potem spet kliče po pozornosti.

In naslednji prizor, ko deklica vzame svoj pravljični plašček. Položi ga na tla v sobi in pred njo stoji izvezena scena pravljice o Rdeči kapici. Prime figuro Rdeče kapice in Volka ter se z njima pomika po plaščku in ob tem pripoveduje pravljico. Pripoveduje znova in znova, vsakič z novimi besedami, novimi zapleti in zaključki v pravljici, izvirno in zanimivo, da še mama prisluhne.

Tako živo vidim ta prizor in tako lep se mi zdi, da ga želim živeti.

Kaj ni to krasen občutek?
Vedeti, da si nekomu pomagal doživeti pravljičen dan.

Bodite pravljično.
