Bus-Stop Library

Bus-Stop Library

Ljubljana is the World Book Capital 2010. So, to encourage people to read more, a special project is taking place: the Bus-Stop Library. There are 23 different bus stops that have books hanging on the glass walls. You can borrow any book you want, take it home, read it and then bring it back to any of the 23 bus-stop librares. I decided to borrow The Little Prince today - in German (Der Kleine Prinz). So, there are books in other languages as well as in Slovene - something for everyone. I like this project very much! In fact, more projects like this should be organized more often :-)

I got a bucket of wooden beads today and I decided to make little figures, which I named Woodies. Each figure is about 10 cm (4 inches) long. You can stretch them and twist them into any position you want. They are very easy to make, and they are great fun :-)

This one's a little more complicated to make than the Spanish boxes. I made it some tima ago and I found it yesterday in a box of origami figures. I think it's quite scary ;-)

I love making origami creations. I made these today, while I was watching TV. They are very easy to make and they brighten up the room. If you keep them on your coffee table, every guest that comes around for a visit will want one, too :-)

Hawfinch Attitude

You lookin' at me?

This hawfinch is a regular guest on my window-sill bird feeder. At first, he (yes, it's a boy) was very shy, but now he's so used to me and my camera that I can get as close as 20cm and he'll still pose on the seed bowl, eating merrily and making squeaky noises.
