i also learned how to carve stamps; i’m self-taught so my stamps look a bit rough and not very elegant. but i am still learning…

this is an older photo of my sister’s place before her birthday party. styling by me. i wanted to post this pic for long time.

a vintage jacquard ribbon-bracelet i ‘ve been working on. this is absolutely beautiful, colours are so warm. i got it from the all the fun of the fair in kingly court, soho. such a lovely place! you can find everything from yarn, buttons and patterns to crocheted cupcakes and animals. just cute!

It’s been so long since I last wrote a post. I have been really busy making things for my online shop. I ‘ve also been doing some research on nice shops with interesting and quirky stuff. I would like to have my own shop one day selling things that inspire me.

While looking around I discovered the un esprit en plus. They create beautiful things of natural materials. Have a look.
