my creative workspace

Today I am preparing for my booth on the flea-market in my home town.
Each year there is a very big flea market with more then 1000 visitors.
This year I decided to do a try out with a little booth on this market, as I have lots of vintage inspired and repurposed jewelry, maybe there is a public out there for my creations, we'll see...

So I have been working on these:


unbelievable how many flowers I can cut out of an ugly bag! Remember that ugly bag?


and Rings...


some new pairs in my Japanese Garden paper collection
(find some of them here in my shop.)


lots of cute vintage fabric earstuds in my Picnic collection

Do you come over?

Op maandag 24 mei kan je Fleurfatale vinden in de Lepelstraat in Laarne,
Van 11 to 18 uur is er een grote rommelmarkt in de centrumstraten!
allen daarheen!
je kan me ook mailen (fleurfatale ad live dot be) als je interesse hebt in één van de bovenstaande zaken, want voorlopig staan die nog niet in mijn Etsy shop.

Secret Swap


the nicest ecological packaging ever!
Vintage wall paper, paper scrap butteflies and cute stamps...
I keep the packaging, just too nice to throw away!


A beautiful clutch in Petrol blue and merlot red with an amazing ochre handmade flower on it! I am impressed!
(this picture does not good to the beautiful colors of the clutch)


Such a cute and original brooches for my kids (but will wear them too as I am a brooch-addict) The Elk is my fav,....or is it the floral bear!! I love them!

My Secret Swap arrived!
Again, I have been spoiled! (and so are my kids!)
All the way from Finland came a beautiful package!
I like the way Minna makes work of her packages, all recycled stuff and yet so beautiful and so Karuski!

If you did not know her work, go discover Karuski's Etsy shop
Or follow her creative life on her blog.

thanks so much Minna!!!
Hugs and kisses all the way from Belgium!

My daughters choice give-away



I went shopping with my two teenage daughters in Ghent some weeks ago, and I gave them the task to search a cute thingy to use for a give-away on my blog.
So here is the choice of my daughters: a whimsical key or mobile chain.

Mention this give away on your blog to enter this give away and leave a comment here!
A tweet is a second entry!

Good luck!
