The lucky stone necklace

Hi! So here I am presenting you actually my first accessory DIY! And if you have a stone with a hole in it, it's probably the easiest necklace you have ever made yourself. So next time you are at the beach, try to find those stones with a hole, which shall bring you luck!


What you will need:
Stone with hole
Leather imitation twine

How to proceed:
Choose the length of the necklace and make a knot at the end.
Insert the other end through the hole and bind it around (see pictures).

A Date with Mr. Celery Parma Ham

Hi! This is a variation of a classic "Devils on horseback" and I can just say that I am in love! Healthy but OMG soo YUM! Perfect as a snack on a nice warm summer evenings, which are getting pretty rare unfortunately... Enjoy those evenings and this perfect snack!



What you will need:

  • 50g (1-2 stems) celery
  • 12 pitted dates
  • 70g parma ham
  • 12 toothpicks
  • pepper


How to proceed:
  1. Wash the celery and cut them into 12 pieces, a little longer then the dates.
  2. Put one piece in each date.
  3. Cut the parma ham into half, alongside.
  4. Wrap the half ham around each date and stick a toothpick through them.
  5. Lay the dates on a baking sheet with baking paper spread pepper over it.
  6. Bake them in the oven at 180°C, eight min long, until the ham has changed color.
