What's up here in Uppsala? Quite a lot. I'm preparing a large collection of jewelry for a exhibition in Stockholm. Cannot show you anything yet, ufortunately... But will come up with a small preview-spoiler a bit later in season.
Finished a large piece, will try my luck in Bead Dreams this year. It is featuring some really gorgeous labradorites and spectrolites and called Laplandia. Making that piece inspired me into making a mini-collection, "The Land of Midnight Sun" (Midnattssolens land in Swedish). This is, basically, how you call the North of Europe. Here is a teaser of Laplandia:
And here is its little sister, Karelia. First, I thought to enter a local competition with it, but misread the rules. Oah well, I like it anyway ;)
Materials: labradorites, Swarovski, leather, wire lace, seed beads, traditional tin clasp.
Karelia is the land of blue lakes, it is a beautiful region shared by Finland and Russia (one can long argue who was there first, but it is BEAUTIFUL despite political issues).
It is -18°C and sunny outside. I just could not resist making the last shot in the show!
So long!

Breathtakingly beautiful! Very inspiring, too.
Amazing necklace!!! It looks so soft:)
I am looking for alternatives for the word "lovely" in this case "original" comes immediately to mind. This piece calls out to be touched, worn, and admired. Good work.
gorgeous necklace :)
Thank you! This one is one of my all-time-favorites :)
