"Few things are as pleasant as lazing around strumming the uke, but admit it, don’t ya sometimes wish it was smaller? Of course you do. So scratch that itch with this easy, DIY paper craft soprano ukulele. In under ten minutes you can have your very own uke! Great for Christmas tree trimming, package wrapping, or just to collect dust. All ya need is scissors and glue. A skewer or coffee stirrer, glue stick, and X-acto knife are also helpful, but not needed". - Pizza By The Slice

Photobucket


PhotobucketIn South Bohemia, Svatava Vizinová welcomes crèche enthusiasts to her Zábrdské Betlémy Paper Nativity Museum, filled to the rafters with hand-painted podmalba glass pictures, nativity dioramas, and nativity sheets. Simple cardboard boxes (see photo at left) serve as Svatava's simple but stylish displays: walls of colorful paper crèches housed in muted cases. Svatava uses a styrofoam base and supports the manger, arch, and figures with pins. You might wish to do so as well, and you may wish to first cover the styrofoam with fabric. Svatava's Crèche No. 4 is sure to please the young and the young at heart. - Paper Model Kiosk

Bertrand du Guesclin - The Eagle of Brittany - by Zio Prudenzio

Statue of Bertrand du Guesclin in Dinan
Bertrand du Guesclin (c. 1320 – 13 July 1380), known as the Eagle of Brittany or the Black Dog of Brocéliande, was a Breton knight and French military commander during the Hundred Years' War. He was Constable of France from 1370 to his death. Well known for his Fabian strategy, he took part in six pitched battles and won the four in which he held command. Bertrand du Guesclin was born at the Chateau de la Motte de Broen in Broons, near Dinan, in Brittany. His family was of minor Breton nobility, the seigneurs of Broons...He initially served Charles of Blois in the Breton War of Succession (1341-1364). Charles was supported by the French crown, while his rival, Jean de Montfort, was allied with England. Du Guesclin was knighted in 1354 while serving Arnoul d'Audrehem, after countering a raid by Hugh Calveley on the Castle of Montmuran...On September 29, 1364, at the Battle of Auray, Charles of Blois were heavily defeated by John V, Duke of Brittany and the English forces under Sir John Chandos. Charles was killed in action, ending the Blois pretensions in Brittany. Despite an heroic resistance, Du Guesclin was captured and ransomed by Charles V for 100,000 francs...War with England was renewed in 1369, and Du Guesclin was recalled from Castile in 1370 by Charles V, who had decided to make him Constable of France, the country's chief military leader. By tradition this post was always given to a great nobleman, not to someone like the comparatively low-born Du Guesclin, but Charles needed someone who was an outstanding professional soldier. In practice du Guesclin had continual difficulties in getting aristocratic leaders to serve under him, and the core of his armies were always his personal retinue...Du Guesclin pursued the English into Brittany from 1370 to 1374, and defeated again the English army at the Battle of Chizé in 1373...He disapproved of the confiscation of Brittany by Charles V in 1378, and his campaign to make the duchy submit to the king was halfhearted...An able tactician and a loyal and disciplined warrior, Du Guesclin had reconquered much of France from the English when he died of illness at Chateauneuf-de-Randon while on a military expedition in Languedoc in 1380. He was buried at Saint-Denis in the tomb of the Kings of France. His heart is kept at the basilica of Saint-Sauveur at Dinan. - Wikipedia

Death of Bertrand du Guesclin,
by Jean Fouquet
Bertrand du Guesclin, Condestável da França, nasceu por volta de 1315 a 1320 em La Motte-Broons, perto de Dinan (costas do Norte, Bretanha). Cavaleiro valente e notável militar, organizou campanhas de desgaste, numa guerra de atrito que levou à expulsão dos ingleses duma boa parte da França durante a Guerra dos Cem Anos. Em 1341 entrou para o serviço de Carlos de Blois, duque da Bretanha, combatendo os invasores ingleses. Em 1354 é armado cavaleiro. Dois anos depois, defendeu a cidade de Rennes do assalto do duque de Lancaster, mantendo-a até às tréguas de Bordéus, assinadas em junho de 1357. Mais tarde, du Guesclin ou, como era conhecido, a Águia da Bretanha, serviu Carlos V da França, que lhe concedeu o cargo de lugar-tenente da Normandia e o título de conde de Longueville. Na Batalha de Auray (1364) caiu prisioneiro dos ingleses, sendo posteriormente libertado com o pagamento de um resgate. Em seguida, reuniu um forte contingente de mercenários com os quais seguiu para Espanha em 1367, integrando a hoste de Henrique de Trastâmara nas lutas entre este e o seu meio-irmão Pedro, o Cruel, rei de Castela. Apesar de Pedro ter conseguido inicialmente importantes vitórias com o auxílio inglês, du Guesclin, em 1369, teria garantido, em última análise, o trono a Henrique II. Em 1370 foi nomeado Condestável de França por Carlos V e, até à sua morte, empenhou-se em expulsar os ingleses e colocar o ducado da Bretanha sob a autoridade do seu rei. Morreu em 1380, em Châteauneuf-du-Randon (Lozère). - Wikipedia

Photobucket"From the prodigious collection of Svatava Vizinová comes this Free Download for you to print, cut out, and enjoy. On three 8.5 x 11 inch sheets — for easy printing — Svatava has assembled beguiling folk art figures of the Holy Family, a Gloria Angel, Shepherds and sheep, three trees, and the requisite Manger featuring the ox and the mule. Suitable for nativity enthusiasts of all ages, Svatava Crèche No. 5 is as easy to set up as it is to cut out. Attach a pin — or better yet, for younger nativity aficionados, a toothpick — at the back of each piece as Svatava does, and stick each piece on a styrofoam base. Your styrofoam may be covered with cotton "snow," a gold or green (or your choice of color!) tissue, or even straw". - Paper Model Kiosk



"Da incrível coleção da Sra. Svatava Vizinová vem este presépio russo para imprimir, recortar e montar. E de graça! Nas três folhas para imprimir, Svatava reuniu os personagens , no belo estilo folk, da Sagrada Família, Um Anjo Das Boas Novas, Um pastor e suas ovelhas e a manjedoura com um boi e um jumento. Cole palitos atrás das peças, como fez Svatava e fixe em uma base de isopor revestida de tecido verde e marrom. Se quiser faça "neve", com algodão". - Paper Model Kiosk
