Shop Update

La Libellulle necklace in brass


seashore earrings in brass


Harara Tribal earrings sterling silver


Pink Julia verdigris earrings in sterling silver

Fleur de bois necklace in copper

Although I can't do what I want because of the lack of time (:-(() I manage bit by bit to create new jewelry for the upcoming season.
It's seems like I am in a green minty mood lately....
I love that color, it combines good with copper and brass but also with silver.
Some of these designs are already in my shop!

What the postman brought me......


I could not resist anymore.
Finally I bought(here)some of that gorgeous Japanese washi masking tape!
Even taking pictures of it was a joy, love those warm saturied colors!
making packages was never before such a nice job :-) Ah well!

My new cards


Have you seen the new cards I designed for Fleurfatale? I mixed and matched some of my pictures, and combined mostly by colortones. The format is cute: 8 x 8 cm, the perfect size to me :-) I am glad I can use my graphic background once in a while.

a virtual hug!


Today my thoughts go out to two sweet ladies. They face hard times these days.
I want to give them a virtual hug!
Keep up H. an V.!

the circle of life (Lyrics from the Lion King)

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

Eco Babe

I finished my 'collier de papiers' Yesterday! Oh, how I enjoyed making them. (paper beads are made from pages from old fashion magazines, as I told before, I think)
I know I can't beat the paperbusiness, but it's the idea, .....to make something out of something others just throw away.
Ah well, just everything can have another life! just try!
I feel every tiny little step to make a better world is worth it!
My necklaces are all off to Canada. You will find them soon here.

Monday Moodboard


Dress by Malam
Decorative coasters by birribe
crochet pot holder by Emmalamb
Colormix earrings by StarofteEast
One of the fun parts of creating and selling jewelry is that you can start creating new lines a while before the season they are made for has started.
That is why I am now creating with spring and summer in my mind.
I try to evoke those summery feelings by diving into fashion magazines of last summer (I have a large pile of never thrown away magazines)
But the sun that was peeping so bright this morning also helped, it felt like spring was here (although the fields were still covered with a white snow blanket).

So my monday mood is one with a springy feel! enjoy!
