Kreatiff in Oostende

Make your own necklace? Make a a little face out of a chestnut? Swishing? Pimp old things into trendy new ones? These are only some of the things you will be able to do on the creative event of my new collegues and me. 
A trendy pop-up event by creative people that work for our town. 
We will be showing what we do in our spare time ... our favorite hobby. 
See some demo's, follow a workshop?  Feel the enthousiasm of people that want to share their knowledge and enthusiasm for their hobby.
Hope to see you all next saturday the 23rd of March at Hangaar 1 -  Stapelhuisstraat 1 - Oostende - from 10am to 6pm.  Free entrance!

Made some earrings for the event - but my crochetwork will be shown too - and demonstrated.

The place to be : Petit Bazar & Petit Café

Get a glimpse of good taste ! Geert and Caroline have been collecting the most amazing stuff you can imagine. Caroline loves to make 'des pieces uniques' by customizing furniture, cushions etc ... They open up their house for the first time for only 4 unique days. Geert will give you the atmosphere of a real vintage café, playing awesome music. Meanwhile you can admire (and buy) the items of Caroline's collection. If you are a fan of the Provence and the typical 'vide-greniers', you surely will love this !

A small selection of my jewelry line will be displayed too !

The 1m² event in pictures

A big 'thank you' to Mitsy from Artmind

and Annemiek from Twotrees

to make this event to such a great experience for all of us participants !

I tried to take pictures when people came in and started setting up their booth on their 1m² spot. 

Sorry that the quality of the pictures is not very good.

Ok ... 1m² is really petite !

Starting to build the booths

A real good idea from the Eeclaire ladies !

All of their handmade collections in boxes, it's really a surprise to open up the box and see what is inside, pick your color and have a seat !

Preparing for 1m²

On Sunday the 22 nd of April I will be participating

 in the 1m² event in Hasselt.

The organisation challenged us to use just one square meter for displaying our objects.  

On the ground you get 1m² ... but nobody mentioned

how high the ceiling is ;-)

Stay tuned for my final "1m² installation".
