New brooches

Here they are, my new little ones!
Made out of airdrying clay and painted with acrylics. Sealed with a layer of varnish
Approx. size is like max 4cm, they are all different and unique as well!

If I am fast enough I can put some of them on Etsy ;)

A little show with new things

Once again I participated in a little show, close to the village where we live...
I brought my new things, the notebooks and rand new gato-brooches with me, prints, buttons, magnets and postcards. Enough to show some beauty. Of course La famille Victor went with me to the little fair
and they enchanted every visitor with their stunning looks.
It was a very nice sunday and I guess I have to go on with my drawings after all those nice comments of the visitors today...they want MORE :)

Dank je Martine en Lennie voor de organisatie en het enthousiasme op Mix&Match!

Sewing saturday

FEEST! La famille Victor is sinds vandaag ONLINE!
We zijn heel fier! De boekjes kan je daar stuk voor stuk bewonderen en tevens vind je er een lijst terug van al onze verkooppunten.
Ontdek die bijzondere familie en haar patroontjes!
En steek die naaimachine maar in gang!
***
Time to party. La famille Victor went ONLINE today!
We are so proud, the books with patterns can be purchased but also you can find there all the shops (in Belgium) where you can even watch and buy them! The english version will come up later. So meanwhile, start learning a bit of dutch and discover that special family.

 Na de stempel van gisteren heb ik nog meer zin gekregen om weer nieuwe dingen te maken, mooie dingen, dingen die me blij maken.
Na maanden van naaimaterialen tekenen, kledij en allerhande naai-gerelateerde zaken kon ik er niet langer aan weerstaan. Ben meteen een paar leuke stofjes gaan halen bij Julija's Shop en maakte deze pennenrol voor mezelf.
Happy als ik ermee ben, vol van de naaifoutjes maar alsof dat mijn geluk stuk kan maken.
Zo'n weekends zijn goud waard!
***
After the stampmaking I'm getting totally in the mood to create new things, nice things...
things that make me smiling.
After drawing months sewing materials, clothes and all kind of sewing related needs I couldn't resist to leave my sewing machine packed. So I went buying really nice fabrics and made a pen pocket...just for myself ;)
I'm so happy with it and sure, full of sewing errors but that cannot take my happiness away!
love weekends like this!

Stamplove


Made a little stamp to make my mark on sold books from La famille Victor.
May'be a cup of tea would make the teapot still happier? :)
For Dalí it doesn't matter, with or without teacup as long as I'm close.
***
and I refreshed my website a bit...soon have to make work from pages full of drawings and nice things on it!

365 project # Month 1 / A CAT A DAY

Hum! My first 365-blogpost. Here he is..2 drawings of my hero! There is one little problem. Because the nights aren't that cold this little hero leaves every night until the morning, enters at 6 o'clock and disappears for the whole day in a box in our basement. He loves that life for now...
Winter must come finally so that I can have at least 21 drawings of this little sweet monster.
Any suggestions for next month are welcome.
Please no living and stubborn objects  ;)

Copenhagen Christmas 2012

We spent Christmas in Copenhagen this year. Last year we entered 2012 on the isle of Texel in the north of The Netherlands, next year it's possible we will fly to Boston ;)
Copenhagen is so fresh! Not only the temperature but the people, traffic, interiors, public places. 
A very different style of living, must be the scandinavian way. 
We can learn a lot from that style...don't know where to begin!
Here some links to taste the more then delicious Danish design and art!
Dream away!!!
FARVEL!
