Blühblüh! Fliegflieg! Kannst du drehen, wie du´s wendest, bleibt immer gut: Bastisrikes VOGELBLÜTE Brosche. Die ANHÄNGER gibts jetzt auch wieder und Rike ist aus dem Winterurlaub zurück und schickt euch das alles ganz schnell.

Wenn man die anhat kann man auch extrem froh schauen, da bin ich mir sicher. Also ich würd sogar sagen, ich versprech euch, dass man froh schauen kann. Mir war wahrscheinlich bloß kalt, oder der W hat sich beim Fotografieren schon wieder so angestellt, dass mir mit der Zeit das Lächeln vergangen ist. Schaut bitte froher! Oder nicht! Sucht es euch aus! Wie gesagt: Ihr könnt es drehen und wenden!

guess what - it´s GIVEAWAY time!

to get a PLANT HANGER for free all you have to do is leave a comment under this post until Sunday 21.6.

or/and comment on THIS PICTURE on instagram and like @annawsake
THE WINNER IS @stoeplers

.

on top of that there are five PLANT HANGERS listed in the shop 

that come with a free set of three tiny ceramic heart pendants made by PAULA VALENTIM

be quick!

.

Paula also just posted a lovely recipe for OLIVE OIL AND ORANGE BISCUITS

mine turned out to be a bit on the bitter side

i probably used to much orange zest

also we simply can´t get enough of FRÄULEIN TEXT´s GRANOLA - that crunching buckwheat!!!

(i tend to make it with ghee, dried blue berries and cardamom - excellent when you run out of cinnamon)

and those TURMERIC CASHEWS - wow!

it was my first time using cayenne, so they turned out super hot
and can now be used as a spice themselves

and since i had a bottle of almost crystallised rice sirup hidden in on of my vast drawers

i gave this ELDERFLOWER CORDIAL a shot

didn´t look as poetic as in those pictures, more like when you pour a bottle of beer and all that comes out is foam

but now it works (and looks like beer completely without foam)

.

it looks like i´m completely food driven these days

it´s probably Nigel Slater´s fault

i´m reading too much in his books and now i´m wondering

when i´m going to start dreaming of lamb with apricots and all that tarragon he seams to consume

since foxgloves have planted themselves in the sage patch

(if you´re reading your Agatha Christie closely you know how dangerous that can be)

i don´t dare to try what looks to me like tarragon in my garden

maybe it´s some highly poisonous lookalike too

.

spent all of my "business money" on getting the blanks for the new collection cut
they just arrived and now SO MUCH work is about to begin
i´m already sore after half a day

so i swear a lot and hide out somewhere eating cookies or nuts
.
all versions of the BLUE BELL NECKLACES and the PUZZLE RINGS are now back in stock

.

also i have to get used to the fact that my hair will probably never look neat

and i should probably embrace the style of an unruly toddler

adorned with some of the BARRETTES and HAIR THINGS we´re WORKING ON OF COURSE!
.
and since i´m working on a ton of gifs to show off our new collection
i thought just tune you in with a tiny one including a smelly chives flower
.
do i need those SHORTS?
who wants to visit SQIRL with me?
and who does not love this WOMAN?

last year i was asked to do a print for the fashion label 0941

i had already done a few BEFORE

so i was super happy to get to create another one for the S/S2015 collection

available HERE

.

when i´m designing such things often i have no idea what will come out of it in the end

so here i show you some on-the-way versions

that did not end up printed on silk like the final print

.

a few weeks ago i played around with the clothes behind my house

enjoying a a bit of sunshine

and looking very much not like a model

.

pictures of the real model are by ANDREAS FUCHS

oh, how i love the contrast between us two

so, some more PLANT HANGERS arrived

after they´ve been sold out for some weeks

be quick and get yours

but don´t worry in case you´re missing out, we´re restocking them again in the next weeks

.

since it´s still a bit chilly outside you might want to get yourself a BRANCH TEA WARMER too

to stay cozy and keep your tea hot

(there will only a few more produced, just a hint...)

.

once i scared the hell out of my sister´s half french boyfriend

by threatening to give him this flowery tableware since it´s french also

i think i remember him saying "PLEASE don´t!"

but i do like to be a bit cruel sometimes...

it has an odd way of crumbling into dust at the slightest knocking it over

.

also i love that jacket

even though everyone thinks i´m looking like an old sofa

it does go well with my new heavy duty apron

(tend to get my stomach dirty in the workshop)

.

wanted to bake some plant hanger shaped cakes for those pictures

but this turned out to be the most awful baking failure so far

they looked hideous and i spend half of a night trying not to be sick all over the place after sampling them

so you wont see any of that!

have a happy sunny sunday instead

our small TROPICAL COLLECTION is now ready

.

bold brass elements for EAR STUDS and NECKLACES

STRINGS OF COLOURFUL STONES AND GLASS BEADS

a collection of amazing FANCY STONE RINGS

(you can choose one and get the ring custom made in rose or yellow gold)

and a new collaboration with OTCHIPOTCHI - the PLANT HANGER

.

also: new pieces are added now to the SAMPLE SALE

and we´ve made lot of new GLASS BEAD NECKLACES

.

and don´t forget:
