trend bible via V&A

my butterfly brooch and necklace has been featured in "trend bible" blog.
I have been working with V&A shop this summer season and I got found there.

working on new range of jewellery for design week at the moment. I can show some images in few weeks time...

NY-LONDON

My first New York experience was overall “amazing”. At the beginning, scale difference was so overwhelming but soon after my sole was gripping the ground properly and distracted by the thrill of being away from home! It was literally “lost in translation” experience, not sleeping much, spending some time alone and mostly having lots of fun.

snap from shop

we had this young lady, Georgia, sporting this blue vintage fabric owl matching her hair clip!!

off to NYC

I'm off to New York tomorrow.
participating "design mart" run by design boom (on line design mag).
it's an event within a ICFF (aka international contemporary furniture fair...)
so it is a big deal for me to be there and also leaving family for more than a week.

online shop will be open during the time but all the shipping will be held till my return on 24th of May. apologize for any inconvenience and wish me luck!

virus and 1Q84

time has been flying by as they do...

I manage to catch a bug and forced to stop and stay in bed before Easter.
apart from being poorly it was quite good to spend time alone at home and managed to read through "1Q84", it's Murakami's new novel which hasn't been translated into English yet.
it was only available on hard cover and i nearly gave up bringing them over from Japan but I gave in at the airport book shop. I better not to mention anything about the contents. all my friends over here are very jealous that they have to wait for their English copy. I'm sure it will be a hype when they do.

we had lovely Easter, hunting for eggs and IKEA shopping (had to be done). we are back in business in normal hours now. I have been making few more bits, such as these random necklaces.
