platewall in progress . . .

I've long been admiring Lisa Congdon's platewall (here)... Such a great way to display a collection. So much life it brings to a wall... love it!
So... I've decided to make a platewall of my own:) I've almost got it all planned out. Will show you once it's all up:)
p.s.: Heather Moore has helped me start an entire collection of Fiep Westendorp plates. Thanks Heather!

random facts...




I've been too extremely busy to do anything aside from what is due... but... time stretched a bit today, so I can play around with some photographs. I turned them into mini stories:)

Matte's felted action figures...


I cannot think of anything cuter at the moment than these felted little sculptures by Matte Stephens. I can't even take this much 'adorable' in one seating... That crafty Mr. Stephens... what will he do next?
Pssst... got everything one needs to start felting about 6 months ago... read books, sketched ideas... pocked my fingers 100 times... left felting to people with patience.

letterpress love...

Got my lulu dee prints last week. They are lovely! Simple lines and colors instantly de-clatter the space around them. They make me want to tone down the everyday toomuchery. Now I'm on the lookout for a worthy frame (which is never as easy as it seems).

inspired by...



These three fun artists are inspiring me today: Jean Jullien (thanks olivelse), Adrian Johnson & Tim Fishlock. Just shapes and colours, but... so well put together! They are worth checking out:)

the awesome Takashi Iwasaki

I came across this unique art by Takashi Iwasaki while looking for some interesting samples of embroidery. He really takes it to a whole new level for me! I can't wait to try some freeform embroidery!
