i´m planning on joining an English reading book club
to spruce up my English talking skills
first up: The other hand/Little Bee
well, i did not like that one
it´s hard to explain
i certainly felt the "fearsome grip"
but also it felt to me like human pain was exploited to create "a feat of literary engineering"
and why is it advertised like that?
"We don´t want to tell you what happens in this book."
to get readers to buy it who usually don´t read books on this uncomfortable matter
so they would try to make some change by feeling ashamed of their not knowing
somehow i missed at least a little glimpse of what we could do to make a bit of a difference
but very likely in reality we can´t
just change our minds
.
have you read it too?
maybe i get new insights from your thoughts on it and the book club meeting
.
CLOUD NECKLACE

again, a new favorite cookbook - Super Natural Every Day
it´s so amazing, you really can trust every praise you find on the web
already made the Yogurt Biscuits three times
quite great with a bit of feta added to the dough
.
W proudly showing off one of his technical masterpieces
the clasp of the CHUNKY BRACELET

i always loved the drop shape of W´s bracelet from the 1980
made of silver and tombac
so i wanted to create something based on his design
but with a less static feel about it
so we kind of cut it into tiny slices
10 bracelets instead of one
always moving on your wrist
a very geometric form constantly disolving
and creating new shapes with every motion
DROP BRACELETS
.
the treasure chest shown is full of his designs from this time period
so much to find there...

a few new things in the SHOP
.
going to tell you a bit about the little stories
behind those pieces in the next couple of days
.

FRAME NECKLACE
DROP RINGS

on the Easter weekend i finally got to read The Gentlewoman
a great magazine
almost felt a bit intimidated by all these successful women
.
and i took lot of pictures for the upcoming shop update
the sun was shining a lot so there was quite a bit of SHADOW play, too
.
currently i´m working on the SILHOUETTE CHARM orders for Mothers Day
there´s still a tiny bit of time to order yours for this occasion
the one shown above is A, K and E
given to our grandmother for Christmas
