Current Colour Crush
At the moment I’m completely smitten with the colours and details in Julia Rofman’s handwoven beaded bracelets. I’m just learning how to use a bead loom - but not sure I have the patience to add the last finishing touches like tassel ends and silver claps – so I’m also adding Julia’s creations to my wishlist – just in case!
Magazine design Workshop
I’m currently teaching a group of nine wonderful and enthusiastic girls the fine art of magazine design. Here´s a peek at the magazine moodboard workshop I taught at my studio last week. Moodboards are such a great way to kick off a creative process – and the girls came up with some promising results. I’m enjoying this teaching experience so much – and look forward to see their final results. Make sure to check out Spagat’s Facebook page or Twitter to see some of the resources I share while teaching.
Travel Views
Yesterday I received a newsletter with some wonderful views on travel and vacation – so I decided to combine some of them with my photos from our recent trip to Thailand. So here´s some pure & sunny eyecandy for you. Have a happy weekend!
Brand New Year
There’s always something magic about starting a brand new year – and a brand new calender. I´m still not all digital when it comes to calenders – so 2012 will be yellow! I’ll start 2012 by teaching a course in Magazine Design for a small group of students at Teko – and I’m very exited about this new opportunity. I think juggling teaching & running my Designstudio will be both fun and educating.
My Christmas Holiday
My Christmas holiday is coming up real soon – and I imagine it will look a little like the above – this year. I always do a little photo research before visiting new places – and this year I found the photos here via Pinterest – you can find them here. I really can´t wait to see the North of Thailand and to see a tiger in close-up – and to spend the last week at the beach – swimming and relaxing.
Last Chance for Shopping
My Christmas HangArounds have been selling out fast this year – and tomorrow the 13th of december is the last day for shopping! You can find my shop here.

Wearable French Eye candy
Ohhhh these silk scarfs by french design duo Milleneufcentquatrevingtquatre – makes my heart beat a little bit faster. I can totally see myself wearing one of their pieces! So if one of my dear readers or dear Santa wishes to spend 295$ on me – then you can find all their designs here… and I promise to wear it every single day or to frame it! Aren´t they just gorgeous and totally inspiring?
Are you ready for Christmas?
I´m getting in the mood for decoration for Christmas – and so is my daughter! I think we will start decorating a little bit this weekend – since she has been begging for this for 2 weeks now. If you are also getting in the mood – then hang around here for the next days – while my Etsy shop slowly gets updated with new Christmas items. I changed the shop concept a little – the shopping is still happening in my Etsy shop – but I also have a webpage here and a Facebook page here – so if you wish to see what´s going on – visit HangArounds.dk
Agates – to hang & to hold
I have a quite a thing for agates ever since I saw Li Edelkoorts trendtalk – Earth Matters last year – they kind of remind you how precious mother Earth is.
#1 Art Works on Paper – exclusive one-off marbeling prints. Handprinted by Pernilles Snedker Hansen, who also makes marbelled wooden floors.
#2 my recent purchase, amathyst necklace from Stone & Honey.
#3 Agate cheese plates from Jayson Home via Creature Comforts.
Also these images of Church windows with agates from Grossmünster in Zurich by Sigmar Polke are worth checking out!
