Hello dear friends! I hope you had a lovely weekend! I just went away from Lisbon another weekend, but the truth is that I miss this little spot very easily! What have you done on your weekends? So… as you may all noticed, this is something new here at {…a place for twiggs}, as usual, news are becoming very common around here! I think that vacations spent at home are also good to clear our minds, we get to feel free to do those things that usually we don’t have time to… and all this time, has another benefit… we become more creative! At least I feel this way so much these last weeks! But to start… welcome to {sneak-peeks}!
{sneak-peeks} is a new column at {…a place for twiggs}, that will happen every week, on mondays! So, this weekly column has the purpose to take you into a sneak-peek on different subjects, and these will be:
{sneak-peek :: blogs}
{sneak-peek :: handmade pledge}
{sneak-peek :: photography}
This means that on a weekly basis, we’ll take you into an inspiring journey through beautiful and interesting blogs by talented bloggers, talented artists that create exquisite objects with their own hands, and present to you talented photographers, that inspire us with their unique images and perspectives. So, today we will have also a talented person that besides having a blog, it is also a talented photographer and artist. Today we will take you through…

Ishtar Olivera presents herself in the most simple way…
“Illustrator, I´m an illustrator who loves all the beautiful things in life! Arts and crafts, photography, sewing… Creativity is my life! Welcome to my blog, welcome to my world!”

According to Ishtar…
“I can tell you that my blog first started as a place to showcase my work and illustrations, but with time I wanted to give it a try writing “real posts” about things I loved. It kept evolving -always is- and now I feel more than happy, not only to share the things I love, but also to encourage people to be more creative! When people write me and tell me they are putting into practice the tutorials, feel inspired to take more photos, draw… This makes me feel like I´m really contributing and giving a small part of me to the world.”
Actually, one of the most amazing features on Ishtar’s blog is that she has created a few tutorials that besides colourful and pleasurous for the eye… they are pretty easy to follow and inspire the readers in being more creative and explore new skills.
You can learn about photography, carving, drawing… and I think that Ishtar will have more to come, because she indeed has so much pleasure in preparing these for us! You can explore your skills here!
Besides exploring Ishtar’s blog, which I really hope that you’ll do this right after reading this post, you can also feel inspired by her photography in Flickr!
So, this is it! I really hope that you liked this new feature that I have here at my place! I also would like to thank Ishtar for allowing me this guided tour into her world! Thank you Ishtar!
And to all of you, have yourselves a sweet and peaceful week!!!
