After i've made the open/closed sign for Babushka Boutique, Neva asked me if i wanted to help by making a new window display for the shop. i said yes in a hreatbeat! what a great creative oportunity!

I've bounced around different ideas and we decited for the rain drops display. Those of you who know what i do, may recognize the similarity with my cloud broaches (which are kind of becoming my signature piece and best sellers aswell!).

i've bought the fabric and made the raindrops. i've filled them with normal pillow filler which you can buy in any home depo store. i've used very thin monofillament line, so that the raindrops appear as floating in the air.

 I've asked Neva to by some fake grass (you can get this one already cut to a doormat size in any OBI store) and we just cut it to fit the square. She had bought some fake flowers, grass in a pot, watering cans and flower cans in IKEA, so we incorporated those aswell.

The green really brightened up the window and the raindrops really caught attention of people walking by.

For the first presentation of the lovely things Babushka has to offer i choose the colour pink and its light variatons. it really is better if all the items in the window have the similar colour palette. next  time its everything blue, then yellow, red, violet... Neva can change the window items every day! so every product in the shop has a chance of being seen (except for the clothes, but just for now!)

  

we were very happy with the finnished look and the feedback was awsome! it turly served its purpose - grabbing attetion !

do you like it?

mimi in Cosmo

woohoo! my collar was featured in May issue of Slovenian Cosmopolitan! it was a really nice surprise and it made me very very happy! again, thank you to whoever was "responsible"!

Babushka Boutique

Since this lovely boutique opened and my "jewlys" (collars, headbands, rings...) were settleing comfortable on it's lovely shelfs, i haven't had my thrusty (and heavy) camera with me. 'till this past thursday!

take a look inside of Babushka Boutique.

remake

You can easily spend hours in here! so many lovely stuff from home decor, dresses, jewelry, toys, printed cards, .... i have a feeling i'll even see some home-made cupcakes! that would not be bad at all!

let me introduce just some of slovenian creative ladys that have their creations in Babushka (besidesmyself):

jana troha, tania artnak, teta bina, hana karim, nina mlakar, studio13, ...and many more!

Ever so lovely owner Neva and all of us, who are creating the goodies, will be happy!

new

i've been busy yet again.

i've made new broaches + brcelets.

I was working on saturday. It was a lovely sunny spring morning, perfect to visit the market, having a stroll by the river and to see what antiques are there to buy. I bought myself (well, my mum did- as a gift) a vintage brass italian make-up mirror. i love it! i've wanted one of these for so long, but all i saw were plastic, round ones in the shops. never thought i should look for one in the antique market :)

Saturday was also a great day for a very interesting event called J a n e's W a l k. My workplace (Vila Malina) was one of the 6 points they visited. Maja was also in attendance and she did a proper photo review of the event on her blog. 

All in all, a very good day!

Vila Malina

So, i've got a new job. 

It's in a lovely colourful little shop in the center of my hometown Celje. Meet Vila Malina.

A place of kid friendly toys, vibrant colours, home accessories, jewelry, playroom &chaning room, birthday celebrations, creative inspirations.

"workspace" ; in the backround  are well known posters from Celje-Slovenia's graphic designer Radovan Jenko

every detail is important so owner Urška always makes sure that the vases are full fresh flowers

playroom which doubles as a birthday celebration area

isn't it lovely? <3

just another day...

huh. i have to tell you one thing. it really is hard to write titles to the new posts! 

yesterday i've spend my whole day in Ljubljana (Slovenia's capital for thos who are not fellow citizens).

had to go to the uni, dropped off some of my stuff to various shops & strolled around all the lovely shops Ljubljana has to offer. i was rather dissapointed in the clothing departmnets. not that they don't have enough clothes (we all know that is NOT the case lately) it's just... nothing relly caught my eye. and some are gettin more and more expensive without increasing in qulity or design. 
so my mini shopping ended up in buying a new bag, Rice cup, washi tapes and beads, new lipstick and an additonal cosmetic bag instead. a good turn out none the less.

l'oreal lipstick - impulsive fuchisa, wahi tapes - Prometej, rice cup - Sisi shop, beads - Prometej, cosmetic bag - H&M

i've decided to pimp-up some basic black flats. i've done this to two pairs that i wear and the third ones are in the way. i love how they get a custom unique look (which i loooove).
