Workshop Visit - Line

Last time we were in Denmark we visited Line in her beautiful new workshop at Frederiksberg Allé. It is a shared space, and besides her many amazing jewelry pieces, there was another thing that caught me attention: an old book-press, still running and producing limited edition books. Sadly it wasn't in motion that day, but maybe I will get lucky next time.

Anyway. It is great to see that Line has been able to build a career out of something she loves to do. Very inspiring. If you wish to see her elegant jewelry, you should visit her website or take a walk down Frederiksberg Allé.

A Christmas Present

One thing I am pretty happy with, is this leather box I made in December, for the tarots card I offered my father for Christmas. For those of you who doesn't know, Tarot is not only a way to tell ones future, but also a pretty standard French card game played with the same deck of card.

Instead of just offering the cards in the paperbox they came in, I thought to have a little fun in the workshop. Here I rediscovered my love for leather. It is such a nice material to handle and I am really proud of the finished result.
