In two weeks I will be in Bruges again,
a friend of mine lives there and she holds 'open house'.
Laurence Kalman shows her lampshades, Jean Bernard Boulnois shows paintings, and Feurfatale shows jewelry of course :-)

We worked on this 'promising' theme:
Once upon a time....
Il était une fois....
Er was eens...

This inspired me to make this fairytale looking Flickr Mosaic, I know it's a whimsical collection, but I like 'clash of styles'!

The Fair 'Marché Bricolé' I attended in Bruges yesterday was a succes, there was a great atmosphere,lots of interested visitors and with a little help of my two daughters it was very fun to run our little shop!
The sun was peeping through but it was sooo very cold! After the fair we treated ourselves with hot french fries! I think we deserved that!

So still thinking about that very cold afternoon made this warm wooly list, click on the links to see what else these artists create!

My creative workspace: autumn colored!

Ive been working on some new earrings, in deep warm colorshades, they look a bit etnic to me, especially the assymetric ones. And my challenge pieces are there too, can you guess whos work I was inspired by to make these?

I made some new necklaces too, in deep warm rich colors, autumn is in my heart and in my fingers, even the sunlight in my photographs becomes more orange! How I love this season with it's rich colortones!
these necklaces are already in my shop;-)

A walk in the Woods - Happy Flickr favs

1. shop update, 2. heat-set-ginko still wet, 3. Untitled, 4. American Beautyberries






I feel no shame, I feel pride!
these were the 'historical' :-) words my husband spoke when my third daughter (With downsyndrome) was born. That's what I feel too, seeing these lovely pictures of my happy bunch of kids. :-)
Our walk in the woods last sunday inspired me to make this Flickr mosaic above!
