Good Sunday

Today I had a beautiful day - I spent it in my workroom organizing places and digging through my treasure boxes. I also made a few sketches for the new jewelry pieces.

Here is a peek at the process.

Creative process...

I love pulling these boxes out on the floor and playing with the stones until I get the right layout for my future piece. 

What is your creative process? How do you start a new project?

My workroom

I still cannot believe that it's finally finished. :) Yay! I have already moved in and unpacked almost all of my boxes.
I would like to share some pictures with you. It's still a bit messy, but I hope you like it. ;)

My workroom

A little nook for afternoon tea with friends. I got this awesome sofa set from an antique shop. It's around 60-70 years old and it was made right here in Kotka.

My workroom

Corner with my Tonner dolls and craft supplies.

My workroom

Messy table and pinboard. I painted the board myself, as cork didn't look right with this wallpaper. :)

My workroom

Seed beads...

Hi guys! I haven't been around much lately, so I just wanted to write a quick message to all my friends in the blogger world. I hope you still remember me. :))
First of all, I would like to wish you a very happy New Year! May all your lovely dreams and plans come true! I would love to hear from you! What's new in your creative lives? Come, share some good news with me, I really need them. ;)
For past several months I've been going through some rough times in my personal life. Dealing with a loss of someone is never easy, especially if you have never actually given a chance to get to know them. It's been hard, but I'm trying to get myself together.
So, as you might have already noticed, I've decided to have a fresh start. I've arranged my workroom, given the blog a new look, scheduled an appointment with a hairdresser and finally made peace with myself. Time cures everything. I just need to give time time.

Hope you'll stick with me. The content of my bog might be a bit different from now on, as I still don't have much inspiration for beading. But I promise to share with you all the fun and useful things that I come across.

Much love from Finland,
