Natural materials (soon for sale)
I am busy buying lots of things for the workshops I am teaching about natural materials. After days and even weeks of searching and bothering my collegues, I found out that it is very hard to get hold of some materials. Because of that (and also because I am addicted to them) I decided to open a hole new part of my webshop: Natural materials (from plants, animals and from the sea) and semi-precious stones;
The first deliveries have arrived this week from Ecuador, USA and Poland! Every time I receive a new package, I'm happy as a child with a new toy. The bad side of the story is that I have to stay in the house the hole day long, because I never know when the delivery service shows up. But if that's what it takes, that's what I'll do!!
Here's a little preview: Raw amber, raw jet and vegetarian ivory, ready to process yourself:

@Veerle, het vegetarisch ivoor komt uit Ecuador (tagua noten). Geniet van de reis als je gaat en vergeet niet op voorhand te checken wat je mag uitvoeren (en hoeveeeeel) :)
Zag al van één van je leerlingen (Marie) wat er zoal in je brievenbus valt dezer dagen ... ik kijk echt uit naar wat je zal te koop aanbieden!
In je lijstje van landen waar je bestelde, zag ik Ecuador ... de kans is zééééér groot dat ik daar in het najaar heen ga ... wat heeft Ecuador te bieden?
