Please, spring, do come soon!

Where to start?

I do hope the sun is coming through today. I have new designs to picture and I want them soon in my shop!
I finished and shipped my orders and right now I am working on two custom orders.
You can see a glimpse of them in picture the above and te picture below.


But now I have to put lots of time in boring stuff.
- Mostly filling up papers for my daughter with handicap: boring and stressing: one mistake and you can lose the fee you get from government.
- Making appointments to visit future schools for my eldest.
- House cleaning!!!! urgent!
And I guess I really haven't time for that,
but I also made a new running schedule! I want to run 3 times a week. This morning was a rainy run, but I enjoyed!

NOT made in China

Guess what an indecent proposal I got today. I have been contacted by a Chinese firm. They studied my designs and proposed to make large quantities of my stuff for a competitive price. They can deliver within a week...
Can you imagine tons of my designs necklaces travelling the ocean in one of those huge containers? (probably made by teenage Chinese girls for half a dime in doubting and unhealthy circumstances)
I - certainly - NOT!

More then ever I am convinced to thrift, recycle and repurpose and to make one of a kind or small series of designs, like I always have done...
I know, that way, I will never be rich, and I am not good in big bussiness, but I love what I do and it makes me happy!

So hereby I want to thank my sweet customers and my EST and Etsy friends who are supporting my small handmade business!
I have said :-)))


This said, I want to mention a proposal which I am much more into!
The Eco webshop Kudzu asked for a bunch of my cat brooches, but they liked them to be made with ecological woolroving.(they even gave me the website where I could find that woolroving) I do like these kind of proposals!! Kudzu rocks!

So I am very proud to announce that my felted creations will now be made with ecological woolroving. I am very happy about it. What a great way to reduce my ecological footstep ( and the one of my customers!.)



In the meantime you can already find my fabric earstuds at kudzu's.

Be different

My 'Be different' collection is growing.
I am proud of them!
Did you know I already took photography classes when I was 12.
At that time I was convinced to become a famous photographer :-)
hm, things turned out a bit 'different' (wat's in a word :-))

But I am glad that my old skills pop up from time to time, and well, that is what I think, with a good result :-)

If you like them, you can find them here.
