Splendid Haukipudas

I love my home town Haukipudas. Since we moved here eight years ago this feeling has deepened daily. It is a charming place of eight seasons with different sensations each. The river Kiiminkijoki, the coast of Gulf of Bothnia, the vast forests, the plains, modest hills and her population of 18000 inhabitants have conquered my heart and my imagination. KEEP IN TOUCH WITH HAUKIPUDAS AND MYSELF through my blog! I promise to give you some real experience of everyday life in Haukipudas.

STARS OR SNOW FLAKES: IT IS HOW YOU WISH TO SEE THE THINGS

Who ever wanted to make impression by one's pottering? My wife has invented a personal style of expressing herself by paperwork. She clips with scissors ornamental snowflakes out of thin white tissue paper. In many years - after snow has covered Finnish forests - she has started this occupation whenever she happens to have extra time.

By now this season she has clipped tens of flakes. She says herself about this activity: "I make this every time different way, so a new work differs from the preceding one in a clearly visible manner".

Almost night after night she concentrates into this clipping affair. This has been her hobby since she was a young lady. Now she is able to clip also 5 and 7 corner flakes in spite of those usual 4 and 6 corner ones.

Hereby I'll offer you some photos to view about her masterworks.
