Casa e Cose

Yep last night I got creative and I made myself a dress. You like it? I am happy with the result and I think I will do some more…Got some compliments for it when wearing it yesterday too so at the end of the day I was rather proud and ready to sow some more!  Anyhow  tonight i will let my overlock rest -  after everyone has gone to sleep I will be up reading Lonny !

With the aestetics of asian culture and the ability to use earth or rather soil to dye fabric miss Hyun Jin Jeong has created some rather exquisite textiles. She comments on her work on the St Martin textile blog: My vision of textile futures is the re-discovery of everyday materials from nature. There are many different natural materials that were once used but are now forgotten. I think rediscovering these materials and using them wisely is essential for a sustainable future.

Finally you can buy cool organic t-shirts at a decent price at the t-shirt store. Similar concept to another huge american website but instead of normal cotton the tshirt store from Sweden ( yeah! ) has gone back to the roots and they are using only 100% organic cotton for their products which I think is GREAT!!! Below is some girly favorites but there are lods more!

Using organic cotton, tencel or recycled polyester. In stores from 14th of april. I think Im gonna get the soft pink dress or the petal skirt dress a la Chloe for a wedding im going to end of may. Im so happy that a huge chain store like HM, who actually can make a difference on the mass market,  is totally into sustainablity and tries to make a difference.

I cant open one eye. My back hurts. My throat. I think Im coming down with something. But it’s spring and I can feel it! Want to throw away my shoes and jacket, put on some sandals and a dress and go walking by the beach…or rather just lay down on the beach and sleep. I bough a trensh yesterday on Etsy. I have been looking at it for months…fantastic cut! Need to buy some carrot cream to prepare the skin for the sun – I adore the packaging, and also some eco products from the home.  Want to redo our living room to a fun playground for all and I am also considering buying tons of plants and just randomly place them, effortlessly by the window and dont make so much fuss about it.

Since I’ve started my own little adventure with Etsy I love seeing what other people craft. And my are people talented! Tank God for Etsy: this way all these artists have a way of getting out there. Below are a new favorite shop of mine: Bure Bure - a felt slipper maker of organic icelandic pure wool! Ah I could really use a pair to warm my cold feet. I damn yet again the stone floor we have in our apartment…
