    …special christmas gifts for family & friends – more hand painted christmas ornaments… :D

    2016/12/17

    Christmas is nearly upon us! But I don’t really worry about it anymore as I should have all christmas presents covered now! Yeah, I just managed to finish another three christmas ornaments! And if I didn’t miscount, I have all christmas presents for closest family and friends covered by now… 😀 Making the very first three hand painted christmas ornaments was so relaxing that I just couldn’t resist to make some more for family and friends. And though this kind of christmas gifts takes quite some time to make, they are such pleasant little projects. Especially as they help to also cover the friends and in-laws for which I wasn’t able to find a suitable christmas present throughout…

    …special christmas gifts – some hand painted christmas ornaments… :D

    2016/12/10

    …and a sneak peek for you at my very first hand painted christmas ornaments… 😀 I have to admit that this posting was quite an inner struggle for me. Should I keep my special christmas gifts a secret or shall I post a picture of them to inspire other fellow crafters? Well, it’s quite obvious that the urge to inspire others finally got the upper hand. I am just too proud of the outcome to not share it! *giggle* Maybe you remember the short note about the glass ornaments which I found at a local crafting store in my recent “…christmas is coming…” posting. When I saw these glass ornaments for the very first…

Customer Reviews

  • positive review  Racaire made and appliqué and embroidered Rose hood for me as a commissioned present. It is stunning, the skill and attention to detail are superb. It is one of the most beautiful things I own. Wool with silk and gold work.

    positive review  Racaire makes beautiful and period pieces from A-Z! My little family proudly owns three of her bags, which are extremely durable and gorgeous! My daughter (5 years old) even has her own sized bag! They go to every event with us and often I use mine as my purse in mundane life. Racaire will only make and sell items which will stand the test of time and is extremely detailed in everything she does. I recommend 10/10!

    positive review  Racaire's work is thoughtful, beautiful, historic and absolutely well made! There is care and pride in everything that comes out of her workshop, a craftmanship that you just don't get from mainstream markets! I have several items done by her hand and I am continually asked about them and who made them. Racaire's quality and artistic beauty shines through everytime.

    positive review  I have followed Racaire's work for a decade. She is a true artist, and absolute magic with a needle! Her block printed fabrics are gobsmackingly gorgeous, with historically appropriate designs, and her embroidery and textile arts are without peer. Her historical research is spot on which is something this history geek truly appreciates. I recommend her work heartily! (and she's an awfully nice person to boot!)

I promised a friend who does awesome meals in the I promised a friend who does awesome meals in the instapot to also show more of my cooking to repay her kindness. 

Today I take you through my process of making one of my favs - Rindsrouladen (beef-rouladen). Sorry for not taking more pics but it can get quite messy with the mustard.

So, I got me a lovely piece of beef that was labeled for stew and showed a nice big coherent piece. It was actually one of the cheapest cuts at the meet counter and I normally cut away all the excess and fat and put it through the meet grinder for medium rare burgers or meet balls. From this piece I cut as many rather thin slices as possible and put the rest through the meet grinder. Btw. if you don't have a meet grinder, you can also cut the rest of the beef into thin slices and make a nice beef stir fry.

So, now to the Rouladen - I put some mustard on the beef slice, pepper it, put some pickle slices on it, when I am in the mood I also add carrot sticks in the middle but not today. Then I roll them up and as I always forget to get toothpicks, I use some cord to bind them so the layers stay in place. I put my instapot on saute/high, add some fat and when it is hot, I brown the Rouladen on all sides. If you get some liquid while you are browning it, you can carefully remove the inner pot and pour it into a bowl for later use and continue browning.

When the browning is done, I remove the Rouladen and add carrots and onions and brown them. When they have a nice shine I add about 2 cups of liquid (in this case the meet juice from my last piece of beef I cut in the instapot and saved in a reused Barilla jar - no extra seasoning as this "juice" has plenty in it). If I have some unused pickle slices left, I normally chop them up and add them to the pot. Then I add my OXO silicon ring and arrange the Rouladen on it. I put my instapot on 25 min/pressure cook/normal or low setting (Natural release).

To serve I take out the Rouladen, remove the silicon ring and get to the natural sauce with carrots and onion. I normally start my rice as soon as I start the pressure cooking.

I am so excited! Donated my super long hair and my I am so excited! Donated my super long hair and my awesome friend @hellomolly___ gave me an amazing haircut and a striking blue-emerald dye job! I can't get enough of my new haircut and hair color and it is so much less weight now that more than half of my hair is gone!
💙💚💙

I already had a similar hairstyle about 20 years ago - it will be awesome when the temperatures get up again. A perfect hairstyle for me for the summer in the Florida panhandle! And as a bonus I feel like she turned back my inner clock by at least 15years - I feel so much younger! Feel like going out and getting me a blue and emerald green lipstick! Lol

Well, it was time for some change but not without Well, it was time for some change but not without making sure to save some hair for the wig making program that makes wigs for kids with cancer.
Now I feel better in so many ways - that's quite some weight off my head, will make life so much easier and help a kid with cancer to feel better thanks to my fabulous neighbor @hellomolly___ ! ❤️
First step is to save the hair more is still to come!

Sneak peek at my favorite work: special custom mad Sneak peek at my favorite work: special custom made pieces 💜💛💜

A lovely lady requested a face mask which goes with her magenta scarf with white dragons and as it happens I have just the right magenta colored linen for it! While I was at it and had the linen laid out I cut some more face masks as well as coifs in Medium and Large for my shop....

White dragons, white octos and white buttlicking cats will definitely look great on the magenta face masks... Wonder how I should print the coifs...
