Jewellery display and price tags

While I haven 't had a chance to crochet for a while, I am really missing it and I can't wait to get back to it next week. But I've done some other cool things besides preparing for the fair.
I love a new project to tackle and making a jewellery display for our collaboration pieces was kind of a challenge. I wanted it to look clean and contemporary but also with a little twist.
I painted the frame, took the picture out and replaced it wit foam board.
Do you think I succeeded?I love the bended semi-transparant paper - it's so easy to hang earrings from too.
I also made new price tags from the left over transparant paper and foambord (used for making model houses). I'm so happy with the new look: clean, clear and modern. And sooo easy to make too.
Print your text on semi-transparant paper (I used 110g). Cut it out with a knife.
Measure how long the price tag is and cut the foamboard a bit longer.
To make the little cut line in the foamboard, I keep the part where I cut it out to put my ruler on. Makes cutting much easier.
Slide your knife, while holding it a bit to the side, through the foambord.
Then squeeze the paper into the foamboard.
So easy to make and good to look at. :)

Happy monday

I love it when the postman rings our doorbell 'cause that usually means he's got a package for me. And jip, I was right, the delivery of the collaboration jewellery that Anna send me so that I can take it to the fair with me. Yay! It is actually the first time that I see the finished pieces in real life, except the loop necklace, so I was superexcited to open up the package.
And it was all so nicely packaged with beautiful pouches and business cards.
And three pieces of Baklava, if my fair buddies are lucky (read: if I haven't eaten them), I'll share them on Sunday.
Now I can't wait to find a nice way to display it all... to be continued.

Studio happenings

It will be a busy day today. My table is filled with lots of things that need to get done. I'm sure I'm not getting this all done today but putting things in little blocks motivates me to get those 'blocks' out of the way...
Make and package Babushka magnets...Make and package flower magnets...
Assemble ceramic birds so they are ready to Decopatch.
Decopatch a flock of birds...
Think about a custom feeling for a friend.
I asked for some adjectives so I can work from there.
Sand & assemble love birds.
Fill this shelf with porcelain bits and pieces
for my collaboration with Anna from LilaRubyKing

And that's only what fits on my table at the moment... the to do-list however is loooooong and wide! :)

Oh, and if you haven't already, please vote for me for the Poppy Award, here! :)
