My Friday Night Outfit

Yesterday evening I made my first nuno felted scarf!
I think I did well for my first attempt! I was very happy the scarf was dry this morning so I could put it on biking the kids to school. Hubby said he liked the 'tree' colors (boomkleuren.
I followed nuno felting workshop at Karwij, in my neighbourhood, unfortunaltely I forgot to take my camera, so you can only see the result. (meer workshops van Karwij vindt je hier.) De lesgeefster was Linda Dhont van Elledee.

I found some cool accessories to go with my scarf:

my creative workspace

I've been working on a custom order lately!
I am making a bunch of Japanese garden earrings, it seems they are well liked!
The great news is that I made some rings with the japanese design too, the first one turned out very beautiful!


and I finished a new necklace. Inspired by the roots of my second daughter, I called the necklace after the Ethiopean city where Meron was born! (and which she will visit in about a month).

Jimma necklace is now available in my shop!


It seems like autumn shows its darker side: it's has been raining for 3 days now and the sky is so dark, I just can't take any pictures, I have to hurry taking some every moment the sun peeps through the thick blanket of clouds!
Sigh, I really have to invest in some light bulbs....

How to store your jewelry part 2

It's not always easy to storage your jewelry in a cool way when you are at fairs.
The last fair I attended I had to deal with a table that was to small, maybe next time I bring an extra little table with me?
These are pictures of how I present my jewlery, but believe me, I can improve!
For my earrings I use a kind of big bamboo hats that one put over a bowl of fruit, I have them in White and black.
My rings are presented in a cute vintage childrens shop.

I browsed for some new ideas about the storage and presentation of my jewelry
and as a lot of us are attending some upcoming Christmas fairs, i found it interesting to share these ideas with you!
In this post I show some great finds: if you are not that handy yourself, then you can now invest in some cool displays!




Put a nice cool branch sticker on a wooden plate, chose the color who matches your shop and your jewelry!

It's an aesthetic, perfect "tree" for displaying your jewelry - you can hang rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces from its various branches, and it doubles up as a lovely mood light.

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!
