Holidays are coming…

Posted in Uncategorized at 11:41 pm by Fine van Brooklyn

Busy, busy, busy! That’s how I’ve been these last few weeks. Phew! Luckily tomorrow we’ll be heading off to the country for a few days of relaxation and a traditional family Christmas. I can hardly wait!!!

So, thank you for all your sweet comments and messages this past year, they really mean a lot to me! Thanks also to everyone who has shown interest in my jewellery by coming over to see them and even purchasing some of them. I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and an even happier New Year! See you in 2008!

Candles, gems and glitter

Posted in Uncategorized at 4:25 am by Fine van Brooklyn

In this miserable rain and darkness candles, gems and glitter bring a little hope to the weary soul. I’m making jewellery all the time but photographing is nerve-racking in this ever present gloominess, so I haven’t photographed most of my latest pieces yet.

Charming bracelet 2
“Charming” bracelet with czech and pressed glass beads and a couple of amethysts.

My current favourite colour combo has been this aqua/amethyst mix. I don’t know, it just makes my heart melt! I’ve also played around with these lovely amazonite leaves that I brought back from NYC…

The Village necklace
“The Village” necklace

Last Saturday I had a party and all in all about twenty cheerful guests arrived in celebration of my up and coming business! Despite the preparations being half way ready (typical!!) when the guests started rolling in, I’d say the night was a lot of fun and I’d like to send a big, warm Thank You to everyone that came in such short notice! I hope to see all of you again in the Spring!

Centifolia necklace
“Centifolia” necklace. I do have a thing for roses…

I’m too tired for anything else this time, but I will mention that Pasi’s New York 2007 Flickr set is finally ready! Sit back and enjoy! I recommend the slideshow…

I love this shot!
