I had an once-on-lifetime chance to visit the Europes biggest handicrafts fair in London on October... and I did it - even with a broken bone in my leg - as we know now...
The day after I came home, the total renovation project started and all the stuff from fair went to stock. Ok, the fact is that the renovation is not over yet, but before Xmas I started to bring in my materials, anyway.
Today I found a little box (once again - they seem to reproduce themselves...) with contents from hobby section of the show.
Yes I know that enthusiasm is a great thing - and I put my hands into the matter right away - no thinking no consideration at all - and that's what you get from it:
Do not laugh: I have a huge conflict in me between a true aesthetic minimalist part and crafts stuff collector part. Today collector part in me has won a battle - very old plastic ugly buttons found their place inside the knitted wire. But only a battle, the final winner is still unknown... But I would say that it is a good-looking victory today, isn't it ?
And the first set of links for sellers. All or most of them ship to Finland, too.
