March 19-20th! 32 Creator's event at Hotel Boheme

Hopefully by then Spring will be upon us for real, and I'd be able to store my winter woolies away for at least a few months as winter in Europe seems to take up 90% of the year. To find out, why don't you pop around to see me and 31 other artists and enjoy some warmth and smile emanating from the handmade atmosphere.

It'll be the first of the quarterly event held by Hotel Boheme at the same location each time in the 2nd arrondisement near the metro 'Bonne Nouvelle'. Without fail one will be tempted in every way possible(trust me!); to adorn yourselves/friends, decorate your home, your kids or nieces/nephews, your husband/boyfriend etc etc. Your presence will show support to small businesses and without handmade our lives will be forever taken over by big shopping centers and big brands making huge unreasonable profits... making our connections with each other less and less humane. So, what are you waiting for? Go get yourself a train or plane ticket and lock in the date!

Below are some of the links of the participants involved:

My next Expovente at T-mode

If you're in town(Paris of course don't be silly) on the weekend of the 26th, 27th and the 28th of November come visit me at the marathon Creator's market, and I'll be sharing my space with Lunaticart from Etsy of course.

T-mode (Espace d'animator des blanc manteaux)
48 Rue vieille du temple
75004 Paris

Firstly I must say on a personal note, that I'm not a huge fan of the organizer's choice of images so far especially with these 2 twin Barbie dolls fondling each other in full glory, but hey beggers can't be choosers right. Ahmm but how is it representing tactile creations as such? It's somehow lacking some kind of intelligence just like the subjects you've chosen. There'll be 95 creators showcasing their finest handmade wares... not 95 naked chics possibly shopping or selling their "wares", oh great and it says 'Free entry' as well.

Thank goodness the saving grace is in it's location; at one of the most popular places for hipsters from around the world to visit in Paris, Marais. One can find in the immediate area of this venue are shops like Muji(one of my fave places to shop for non-label zen looking items, hence the name Muji in japanese means 'no label' indeed!), Corpus Cristie, COS(again my absolute fav!), Comptoir de cotoniere, yummmmy-to-die for falafel and cheese cake etc. It's nearer to St. Paul metro if you're thinking of coming, in a massive space that can fit up to fully clothed 100 creators.

Ok, pixel off now ciao ciao poodles

NEW member into the family!!

How lucky am I to have found this wonderful used jewelery workbench! The number of hours I have spent searching for a new or used under a reasonable budget was disheartening... why are they so expensive? But hey, this sexy little number came way below budget AND just in time for our new found apartment. Isn't she lovely Stevie? Isn't she loovvvveeeellyyyy
Thanks to Mikael Decor next to Selfor, we love you.
