LET'S WATCH THE SKY TOGETHER, SILENTLY

 

    Hello again!

I didn't think I'd see you here again. You are truly a devoted reader. It's nice to have a devoted reader. What I'm trying to do, where I'm trying to reach and all my efforts... If even one person reads it, it's a sign that I've reached someone. Thank you sincerely for keeping me going. I believe that I will reach more people soon and I will work harder for this.

We work hard for our goals in our short lives. Sometimes we get overwhelmed, but a supportive word from a person, a cat greeting you on the street, or a wonderful smell of the sea ...They can make us feel good. We can change and multiply these examples. What motivates everyone is different. Today I will talk about my admiration for blue.

Sea and sky; Both are eternal and mysterious. They definitely make me feel better. Listening and watching them silently will allow you to stay away from disturbing things for a while. Looking at the sky .. This feeling is really breathtaking. Everything that’s happening around on this planet just doesn’t seem important anymore it all fades into the background. At the same time, I also find inner peace.  Especially the night sky makes me feel happy.

What  do you feel when you look up at the sky?

I won't write very long today. Last post of the year. I hope you take care of yourself, see you next year^^

WHY DO YOU BLOG?

 

Hello! You can read this in about 4 or 5 minutes, it won't take much longer. If you're looking for less reading time, I'm sorry. Nowadays people want to end everything quickly. I want to use the word "to complete" for this category because when we are doing research or learning something new; we want to complete it by really understanding and feeling everything. This is not a task, so there is no delivery time that needs to be completed quickly. With the increasing use of technological tools, the variety of applications and content has also increased.  So I understand you, but just relax while you calmly read the posts here.

Anyways return to our topic, someone asked me this question today, "Why do you keep writing as if you have hundreds of readers?" Yes, I don't have hundreds of readers today, but one day it will happen, and I will continue to do it with the passion of the first day until that day comes (:

Social media refers to the means of interactions among people in which they create and  share information and ideas in virtual communities and networks. Most of people prefer watching short content on social media nowadays. But I like to use this place as a virtual letter writing room and write long articles (^-^)

You know that English is not my native language (If you're reading, I'm sorry about my typos). I'm very busy, but I'm also studying as hard as I can to improve my foreign language. My pen pals are helping me improve my English a lot. So I must say that publishing posts on a blog and penpalling helps you a lot to improve your foreign language.  

If you have read so far, I have two questions for you today. Have you ever met your pen pal in real life? Do you blog? I'm waiting for your answers and let's me know in the comments.

INSPIRED BY NATURE

Well, in this part let's talk about the felt figures I produced inspired by nature! I think this title needs to become a series because I may not be able to talk enough about these wonderful creatures in one title.

There are so many options that we can use as reference when producing new things. But when it comes to nature; she is a magical source of inspiration. I first started making animal figures from felt. Do you know that the felt versions of these creatures, which are already very cute and unusual in real life, also look great?

First, I would like to talk about the Amazon river dolphin car hanging ornament I made. Please don't forget to look at real-life photos of this dolphin species.

The Amazon river dolphin, also known as the pink river dolphin or boto, lives only in freshwater. It is found throughout much of the Amazon and Orinoco river basins in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, and Venezuela. Although Amazon pink river dolphins are famous for its pink hue, they weren’t born this way. The dolphins are actually born gray and slowly turn pink as they age. Male dolphins are strikingly pinker than their female counterparts; the coloration thought to be a product of scar tissue resulting from rough games or fighting over conquests. However, their final color can be influenced by their behavior, capillary placement, diet, and exposure to sunlight; with brighter pinks attracting more attention from the females. These river dolphins can sport markings that range from mostly gray with some pink spots, to full flamingo pink. Fun fact: when the dolphins get excited, they can flush a brighter pink, similar to humans!

And our next guest is the alpaca with a hat!

Llama or alpaca?

I don't want to argue about this cuz this will make them angry. And this is dangerous! (>_<) Just kidding...
Llamas and alpacas are sweet animals but won't hesitate to spit at you. They can spit when they are extremely agitated or very upset but it is a last resort (^^)

  What do you know about these Amazon river dolphins and llamas/alpacas? Share with us in the comment section and let's learn more about these amazing creatures. See you again soon. Take care yourself ^^

LONG TIME NO SEE!

 Long time no see...

Yes, we often read this sentence when we are penpalling. Because waiting is part of the process, because of the nature of the correspondence. Since you have no other communication option but letters, you have to learn to wait and wish them well. Days, months or even years can pass while you are writing the letter you are sending. Because you still have unfinished things to say that need to be added. You take a break, you add information about new things you have learned or places you have visited. After you have put your words on paper, it is time to decorate the letter paper and envelope! 

Back to the present day; I and you, my blog readers, have not writen each other for a long time. Actually, I want to use this blog as if I am writing a letter and sending it to you, but I think Google wants me to be more active until my presence here is verified. So after being active for a while, I will return to my letter concept. 

I'll keep it short for today, I hope you are well and everything is going well for you. Tell me about your pen pals! Have you ever had a pen pal before? Are you still in touch with him/her? Write the details in the comment section, I can't wait to read them.

WHAT'S NEEDLE FELTING?

Hello!

Thank you again for visiting and I hope to see you more in the future (:

Needle felting is a technique in which, by means of a special needle that has some spikes, felting wool is compacted to achieve different shapes.

When you press the needle into the wool, the fibers become entangled, leaving less and less air inside. When the fabric is more compressed, we are able to mold it. So wonderful figures are created that are decorative and functional.

It’s both incredibly simple in concept and brain-achingly weird at first. Felt is used in anything from cardigans, to musical instruments to decorations but its most exciting usage is probably to make figurines!

SO HOW DID I DISCOVER NEEDLE FELTING?

If you enjoy writing and connecting with other people, having a pen pal is a great way to support your language learning efforts. You can make friends according to your interests or hobbies.

Not all pen pals activity involved sending goodies to each other but I have pen pals who send me items regularly. I also did the same to my pen pals. I needed a lot of time to write long letters for my pen pals, decorate the letters and choose what to put in the envelope as a gift.

The most common one is sending tea bags because it's easy to put in envelope.

But after a while I was looking for unique little gifts to put in envelopes. I discovered needle felting. So I could send my own handmade gifts to my penpals. My penpals loved my products and everyone started giving advice that I should sell my products and introduce them to other people. That's why I'm here. I hope you like my tiny products 😻

      If you don't want to send snail mail, you can try online penpalling.

There are a lot of apps out there in the market for making new friends. 

But it can be difficult to find the "right" app. "Slowly" is one of the best pen pal apps where you could able to connect to person where you could able to do good conversation 📬 🌸

Bringing a traditional penpalling experience to your smartphone, this app is surely worth trying 💛

Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope you enjoy my blog. So if you enjoy my tiny products, stay tuned to get your own! You can visit my socials and my shop with links at the right side of page and let me know your thoughts.

Btw have you ever had a pen pal? Are you still in contact with that person? Comment below!

PEN PAL

 

  

Hello! Welcome to my world (:

Before talk about myself let's clarify what is the meaning of the word . Put simply, penpalling is writing letters to someone you don't know, often penpalling in a different country from you. 

    I'm 30 years old. I’ve been writing letters to my pen pals for the last 12 years. Especially to improve my English in last 5 years.

   So why in the age of the internet do we continue to write letters to each other? Sending someone a letter is one of the most selfless things you can do in a friendship. I believe this is what makes letter writing so personal and special. Traditional pen pals can be a great opportunity to  have thoughtful conversations. A pen pal is someone who is open-minded, interested, and creative. 

Not all pen pals activity involved sending goodies to each other but I have pen pals who send me items regularly. I also did the same to my pen pals. I needed a lot of time to write long letters for my pen pals, decorate the letters and choose what to put in the envelope as a gift.

The most common one is sending tea bags because it's easy to put in envelope. So, basically you can try many kind of tea from many countries without traveling to those places (:

But after a while I was looking for unique little gifts to put in envelopes. I discovered needle felting. So I could send my own handmade gifts to my pen pals... They loved my products and everyone started giving advice that I should sell my products and introduce them to other people. That's why I'm here. I hope you like my little products.

And here it is! A gift I made with needle felting art to my pen pal.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and I hope you enjoy my blog.
