Some Impressions

Hey there!
just hoppin' by in between this huge pile of work to keep you updated.
Here are some impressions of the new products I did for Michèle at www.alles-handgemacht.ch.
She's selling all handmade products from various producers and I had the chance to send her some steampunk, gothic and rockabilly...some of my favorites!

Excuse the sloppy pictures! I took them in a hurry just to keep you updated.

Much love, Dina

Some Impressions

So much going on I never had the chance to show some of the products I made for the shop in Düsseldorf (Germany).

Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to take a picture of every singe piece but I managed it to shoot some impressions.

Voilà...

Purses

Clutches and Handbags

Necklaces and Pocket watches

And Abby thought it's ridiculous to make such a big deal out of a little bit of fabric and some metal.

Much love,

Dina

My Fair Summer

It's been a while...again.
Life is crazy right now!
A load of my clutches, purses and necklaces arrived in Düsseldorf two days before the re-opening party of "Das Pinke Zimmer" and I thought that's it for a while...but...no. I had to hurry up for the next market date was close and I hardly got done, but I got done :)
The market in Zug (Switzerland) was a great experience although the weather was slightly humid and the visitors rare. But I've met a lot of beautiful and interesting human beings and had a lovely helper by my side!
For the last two hours the sun came up and we enjoyed some more visitors.

Even these two "guys" got soaking wet

Cleaning up

Afterwards I caught a big, fat cold and my husband had to get surgery on his back, so I was home alone with two grumpy dogs, missing Oliver and dealing with all of it by myself.
I could not work on anything but on a little bit of cleaning.

These days I often have a quick look at my atelier and all the new fabrics lingering for me. I hardly can wait until my head, throat and lungs are getting free of all of this...waste...to go back to this new material waiting.
I also already have my mind set on christmas and the christmas markets but first I'd just enjoy this wonderful summer weather! It's exactly the temperature I prefer for this time of the year (not too hot!). I'll lay back, at least a little, before I have to make decisions, cut some strings, open new doors and live up to all of the new things that will come.

Much love, Dina

By the way: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWITZERLAND!

New Mad Tea Parties Retailer!

With good news I'm coming on today and I'm really exited to let you finally know!
Almost three weeks ago Heike and Sarah of "Das Pinke Zimmer" (the pink room) in Düsseldorf (Germany) asked me for a couple of items for their boutique.
The two girls are designing and sewing dresses and I just love their style!
Since their business grew they decided to move into a bigger location and increase the product range.

I'm happy that Heike and Sarah decided to ask me for bags, purses and necklaces! So there's the first retailer of my products in Germany. :)
If you live close to Düsseldorf you might would like to visit the re-opening party of "Das Pinke Zimmer" on Saturday, 14th of July. (More infos here)

I'll come up with a couple of new designs and fabrics, so it'll really be worth it to visit. :)

Have a great weekend with much love,
Dina

What a month! So many ideas!

Hello fair Ladies!
So much time went by since my last post and I wonder where it went, because I haven't seen it...
There are a lot of news and some changes too but I will just post the important ones and hope I won't forget to mention anything!
I finally managed it to make the first part of my Dark Edition which I planned on for such a long time.
The full Collection is for sale in my shops on DaWanda and Guzuu.

Actually I wanted to start right on with the second part of it, which will rather be a little more of the romantic gothic style, but I was struggling and felt that I'm kind of full of this direction for a while.

So I started on another vintage collection and just came up with whatever I felt drawn to.

And this is it. They are also available on DaWanda and soon on Guzuu too. Gotta be quick this time because some of these pieces I'll not reproduce.

And here are the latest pieces I came up with.

Next to these I felt that I will have to reorganize my Home Page again because of all of these directions my mind is flowing in...

I'll soon be back for more because you know, there is some pretty furniture waiting to be redone, a lot of antique things need a new home and my mind is flowing and flowing...

And there are so many great blogs of yours to visit too!

Much love!

Dina
