vintage findings on the go

Like many of you, I love collecting fun, nifty and beautiful vintage items. 

I opened a new shop section today featuring my vintage findings. Now there are only four items: a golden brooch with Roman numerals, a bottle-opener folded in a leather pouch, an amber geometric pendant and a turquoise watch. Pretty random, huh?

In case you wanna to see more pictures (which I'm sure you do), you can find them here.

One other thing - anyone on Pinterest? Find me here. I have albums of tattoos, animals, recipes, trips, product design, fashion and of course, my own stuff:)


another quick update

stamp for Benjamin, an awesome teacher apparently!

And here's the stamp!




Do you like her? :)

My little 'Parallel Universe' stamp was featured on Etsy's front page:)

Check out this stunning treasury here.

And I found this site where you can see all the front page treasuries.

this is when new year starts

We celebrated the Chinese New Year this monday! 

It's the year of dragon and it's my year. Chinese people believe that you're to expect bad luck in your own year, which is why your family members and friends give you accessories or jewelry that are gold or red to ward off evil. I got a package from my mom a couple of weeks back so now I have a red bracelet with a gold dragon pendant on it, and ten red socks from my family:D And my roommate got me a huge red shawl for Christmas, so I'm feeling pretty protected now!

Here're some pictures I took of the fireworks over the City Hall and old town of Stockholm on the (Western) New Year's eve. 

How did you spend New Year's?



And some recent custom stamps:

Quick update

I've been unbelievably busy with x'mas orders. Lots of portraits and custom stamps. Here're two I made today.

I'm thinking about putting up a listing for the personal seal, like the red one below. It's a traditional Chinese thing that's often seen on paintings and calligraphy, and my grandfather used to make them for the family members. They are usually carved in stone, but this one is in rubber:)


And below is a stamp I made for another Etsy seller. I really love the texture of the background. New Japanese gauge worked perfectly!


In case there's no updates by Christmas... hope all of you have a great holiday season!
