Greetings from Kuwait

A reader from Kuwait wrote to show me photos from a dinner party that she and her sister organized. The girls invited friends to come, and they all made paper ornaments based on the tutorial I put here. Look at their work! Amazing! To see more photos, visit their blog here (it's in Arabic, but if you can't read it, you can still look at the pictures.) I was thrilled to hear from far-away How About Orange readers. Does anyone else outside the U.S. want to say hello? Leave a comment and mention what country you're from. It would be fun to share where we all are and exchange greetings. (Access to this site is blocked in China. Hello to you anyway, Han and Ming. Miss you!)

  6. I'm just over here in Oregon but I am inspired with every blog post. (Okay, that is about 1800 miles away from IL.)

    Tonight it was hot outside (95F) and we were bored so we went to Ikea to hang out. I still think their big orange sofa is my favorite. And now they have the klippan sofa in orange leather. Yummy.

  12. i read "Greetings from Kuwait" and my first thought was, "wha?? you're here?"!! i'm an american living in kuwait for a year now. i've been a long time lurker so for now i'll say hi there! or in arabic: salam, which is the short version of salam wa aleikum which means peace be upon you; but it used as a "hello" greeting. OR marhaba, which means hello. that's the extent of the arabic i know! so many people speak english here i haven't had to learn arabic

  164. Hello from Singapore!
    My favourite things about your blog are the tutorials and time wasters. I hardly try out the tutorials but I still like your projects and so many fun hours have been spent at the suggested time wasters! :D

  165. Konnichiwa! I read your blog out here in Kagawa, Japan. It keeps me sane in the back country where most people care more about fishing than the decor of their home. Arigatou!

  166. It is so great that you have so many people that read your blog. I think only friends and family read mine. I have only had one person that I didn't know leave a comment. I guess you never know how many people lurk. I left a message yesterday, from Utah.

  173. Greetings from a Dutch-born crafter living in Perth, Australia. I love sewing, embroidery and knitting, but with 2gorgeous girls to care for, there's not a lot of time for all that I want to do. While orange is not my favourite colour (I love blue), I love to read your blog for your wonderful ideas, as well as links to other sites. Keep up the great work!
