My new work-shop
I'm still working from home, but this is a new working place. There are two rooms. It started with a "christmas shop" idea, and now I'm part of it. It's me and Lena, and you can see she had a head start :) We are planning to make this to a shop at least in december. Who knows what happens after that.
If you are in Calgary the 3rd nov. go to the Uppercase Gallery and see Best in Show.
Ashes and Snow - photos.
Collages with meat.
Cool tiles.

One happy swede
Do you think you've seen this plasticbag before? Maybe you have.
Ring a bell yet?
Ok I'll help you soon. First there is a Marcel Dzama T-shirt from MOCA, a yet unopened chocolatebar wich package is designed by the person in question. The biggest clue and the greatest gift is the CAmiLLa postcards - ok it's from Maria one of the Port2port, the lucky girl has a letterpress and is using it so well :). Ta da ta da ta ta.... I've got my own very special postcards ta da....da. What a great ending of the week!
Talking about letterpress, I ordered some of these beauties from Sesame Letterpress.

:) And now I will try to answer some of your e-mails.

Weekend pleasures
I visited Pernilla Lonhage's site with cartoon bags and got the idea to put "ending places" under my crochet characters.
Boogie - Photographer.
I like the lamp "snowflake", and a lot of other things at Ray20, link found at design*sponge.

Dusk
I like the time when the day transforms to night. There is a swedish expression I like very much - kura skymning - My interpretation is that you sit in your home, with a cup of tea or coffee, when the day turns into night and you don't turn the light on until it's dark.
Extremely beautiful plankton jewlery - Sarah
Parker
found at Zeekomkommer
and Simeon
Nelson even so.
Collages by James Michael Starr.
Last, but of course not least, a photographer - Mark Holthusen.
Have a wonderful weekend, and hope to see you next week :)

Morran - the life saver
I have sooo much work to do. When you are stressed, about not having enough time, you don't feel like take the dog for a walk. You don't have time for that! But it's a life saver. If you have a dog you just have to go out, and that's so good!
At Karin's Style blog there was a picture of dolls the other day. I think it's from the same artist (Julie Arkell) as this, owned by a friend of mine (posted on my blog in february). drink more milk.
A young swedish photographer, MyRedSelf.

Aqua is party crochet in the swedish wool yarn - Lovikka. Here is a site with knitting instructions for the traditional lovikka mitten. Someone's knitted a bikini i Lovikka.
I have to say, this yarn is very hard to crochet in. But it's worth it :)
