What are we doing today you wonder?
Making tables for our upcoming SPRING PRESENTATION.
Always a challenge, to come up with something new to show of our jewelry!
We bought 2 thick oak planks, planed them smooth and put oil on them. As I write this Jan is making the legs underneath the table. In these pictures, it all seems like it will come to nothing but wait and you’ll see how beautiful the tables will become.
This year our Spring Presentation, will be at Galerie Terbeek in Beetsterzwaag, The Netherlands. Jan and I will show our latest jewelry on the weekend of april 21-22 and of april 28-29, 2012. (Jan and I will be present)
New this year is our series “Big Brooches”.
Brooches, often in geometric shapes made in silver in combination with different types of wood. Would you like to come to our exhibition and see our latest jewelry? Sign up here and we will invite you!

Yes, indeed Marchi … a bit far! Too bad!
When I thought up this whole table project, I didn’t expect it to turn out so well … Both Jan and I are real happy with the result!

Wat een prachtig idee, deze tafels! Ik heb de datums al in mijn agenda gezet. Ben benieuwd hoe het straks wordt!

Dank voor je bezoekje Ingrid!
De tafels zijn echt beeld schoon geworden en er kunnen veel sieraden op liggen …
Zou leuk zijn als je kon komen in april.

Wow! I think you will probably get a lot of people asking if the tables are for sale too! What a great photo – the last one.

Glad you like them Lois! The last photo is just me having a lucky shot … I am no good at taking pictures at all!
Although last night we had freezing temperatures, now the sky is blue and the sun is shining … hope in Scotland too …

Marion, yesterday, was definitely the most beautiful day of this new year so far – sunny, mild and definitely spring like! Today, it is bitterly cold!
