Sometimes it is essential to leave your comfort zone. 

Sometimes the only way to do that is by opening up to the view of someone else.

And then the magic happens...

When I'm stuck I have the opportunity to ask for a creative brainstorm-session with my husband. His hands can make anything he dreams up. It doesn't hurt to let his experience as a goldsmith, his creative and scrutinizing eye, brush over my thoughts and projects. 

To leave my comfort zone, meant for me, to embrace the art of soldering. 

It is like a breath of fresh air storming into my life, opening up so many more opportunities. So many more paths to explore. 

And this is where it led to: two different versions of a crane-like bird, soaring through the sky. Probably finding it's new home in the Niche of our House. 

So I'm off... 

My creative well has been refilled and I'll be busy for a while chasing all those new ideas, taking flight, skimming over the endless landscape of my minds possibilities. Wishing you a lovely day!

There is no question about it: things just don't get done without supervision of miss Poes. 

The only way to get things done is with miss Poes on my lap, right there where the action is, although she misses most action while slumbering away. Half of the time we co-create, the other half I'm crawling on my knees, trying to find a missing part of a mobile, of which she decided it looked like a mouse and needed to be tossed here and there. Now if that isn't the art of trying to find a balance!

But I can proudly say we were having a very fine creative and productive February and March so far. Three new mobiles have found there way into existence and into my Etsy shop, so go and have a look!

I'm very curious what you think of them.

I am.....

 ...happily working on my metal projects, knitting stitch markers and wire objects.

...creating my own cotton yarn for a soon to be started (Christmas) project.

...enjoying the fire of my little ETNA gas-stove.

... happy.
