Hands Full

Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans. John Lennon

You must forgive me once more for not posting my Xmas Favourite Selection planned for Fridays on this blog, but this humble friend of yours is working harder than ever.
In between the classes I'm teaching and the ones I'm attending, I'm actually selling a lot more then I was prepared for :)
Happily exhausted, my hands are full of work. My head full of new ideas.
My heart is full of hope and expectations.

The Copy [First Step]

This is the first post about my journey in the Jewellery Design Post Graduation.
I'll be sharing part of my process, doubts and inspirations along the way.
So, under the "Post Graduation Notes" label, here's the beginning.

"One thing grows from another, towards a new creation" Deganit Stern Schocken

Inspired by this concept, the first task for the Jewellery Design Laboratory class oriented by Leonor Hipólito, is choosing an object and copying it.
This was my choice.
In the front is the copy I made of the original shoe on the background.
Let's see where these paper and fimo heels will take me.

Creative Spreader!

She wanted a Long Stem Flower. She also wanted a ring.
No rings in this Series yet - I said to her.
Ok - she said.
She picked a Long Flower Stem pin and turned it into an adjustable little ring.
Thumbs up for creative spreaders!

If you own a piece of The Golden Plague, you can send me a photo of yourself wearing it and join The Golden Plague Spreaders. I will appreciate it :)
