I hope you had a lovely weekend! So was mine!
Although my weekends are always full of kids( some friends of te kids came to play and to sleep in), I managed to have some things done. (like my 'colliers de papiers' in the previous post. I also gathered the material needed for the European Challenge (hosted by Kreativlink), but still have to finish this project today!

In the meantime my house is a mess. I decided to be blind for it and leave it all to the cleaning lady tomorrow!

And now off to prepare my week planning, I feel I need one, since I am selling now in 5 shops (including mine) there has to be some structure in my week!

Les Colliers de Papier

It was a while ago. So I was surprised, but very happy with this order.
(and it's a perfect(ecological)way to get rid of my old magazines!)

This weekend, I mixed and matched some new 'Colliers de Papier'.
Look how these fashion pages turn into brand new necklaces!

Fun is that browsing my fashion magazines and looking at the pictures gives me inspirations and vibes for new colorcombo's and new summer designs!

all packed up....

... and ready to go to the Shop of Pascale & Nicole, in my neighbourhood(Karwij)
(but you can still order online too!)find 'the adjustables' here in my shop.





This is ony a selection, go look at the shop to find more choice!

one silk tie - two necklaces

Jimma Necklace

purple river adjustabe necklace

lovely weather today, all the snow was melting away, the sun came peeping and I hurried taking pics!
This is the result of the tie where I put my scissors in: two textile necklaces, one is adjustable with a suede ribbon, the other is the one I showed in the previous post: a necklace of my Jimma collection.

My creative workspace

I decided to hop over, once in a week, to the thriftshop.
It's fun finding cool things that I can upcycle! I like the idea very much of giving a new life to thrown away stuff! and it's amazing how a color, a form or a texture of a find can give new inspiration :-)

so I turned home with:
- a book with linen cover O.50 Euro
That I used right away in my little improvised photo studio! This brand new Japanese earrings pair is in my shop already

- a vintage Children's book: Alice in Wonderland O.50 Euro
A little ceramic milkpot with nostalgic print of roses O.50 Euro
I'll show you later what I am up to, with these finds!

and a silk tie...
The silk tie already changed form:

I learned the technique (of making silk beads) from my dear friend Veerle from Nevousinstallezpas.
added some Ethiopean stilver beads, a beautiful turquoise stone, a verdrigris filigree bead, and handmade pure copper rings to make this beauty!

The Jimma necklace is in my shop right now!

What the postman brought me

I have really been spoiled lately. A few weeks ago I won a give-away on the lovely blog Bloesem kids.
I won a pack of beautiful greetings cards from Australian Based designer Tiel from TskTsk. You can find more of her work here.
