Colorful Easter

Everything is so silent today, it is the first day you can stay outside and sunbathe in bikini.

If Easter is about celebrating peace then this is just what I am doing today: making jewelry outside in the garden with my boyfriend and our dogs around. Tomorrow we continue the same way. We will meet friendly people and talk in peace, enjoy the sun and the breeze, try on jewelry, and of course we will also take a look around at the market to collect some homemade cheese and home-grown vegetables.

Tomorrow: colorful Easter in Káptalantóti!

Fair at Liliomkert

There is a fair in one of the most beautiful regions of Hungary that is a kind of bio-market and though theoretically it is legal, it faces a lot of harrassment from the authorities because of its philosophy. And despite all of this, the market is thriving and growing. Once you go an visit it, you will want to go back every Sunday.

The place is called Liliomkert and is located in Káptalantóti, near Lake Balaton, among the hills and fields of the wonderful Káli-medence (basin).The fair is organized every Sunday morning until 2 PM. You can watch a lovely short video on Liliomkert by clicking here (length: 1:37).

The main idea which I always agreed with is that we need to stop pouring all the plastic/fake/unhealthy/overtreated food and things of all kind into our lives and must make a step back and eat whatever can be found in bio-gardens, eat real meat, taste cakes made by our grandmothers and recycle whatever we can.

So far we have only been visitors/customers here but today I am proud to announce that this Easter Sunday I will also take part and exhibit my jewelry for sale in Liliomkert.

It is the most beautiful market I have ever been to. You cannot imagine just how happy I am! Come and visit me and all the people there, I am sure you will also make a lot of friends and understand why it is highly important to cherish markets as this as long as we can. See you this Sunday in Káptalantóti!

Egalité

I know somebody who always loses her stuff or just forgets them at home or just doesn't find them anywhere. By stuff I mean the most important things you need to carry every day: wallet, keys, cell phone and so on.

This key charm might be a bit harder to lose as I applied tiny bells on it so if you are searching in the deep ocean of your bag you can just follow the sound.

And why did I name it Egalité? Well, just take a look at the coin on it.

SOLD

Something purple

I made this charm months ago for Bozsomati. The instruction I received was "something purple".

I am not a big fan of charms or anything that is for making a phone look more beautiful.

A phone is to make calls on it and nothing more. For me it is not a piece of fashion, not part of my outfit, and most of all not a status symbol.

For many long years I used to have the ugliest but most useful phone. It was made of metal and rubber to make it water-, dust- and LaKukac-proof, and it managed well with my manners as falling out of my hand on stairs, in the bathtub, out of the car... But one morning when I woke up I saw that during the night somehow it ended up in a glass of juice which still to date I cannot imagine how could have happened, above all because I have been "straight edge" for the past 12 years. This was our last morning together.

Since then I have had another phone that I can throw from here to there without any problem.

But I accept that nowadays people want more from their phones, for women mostly it is to look nice and sytlish. So why not making a mobile phone charm that has "something purple"? After all, it is not for me!

SOLD

Piles

Do you know what it means to collect and pile up things and stuff in your room, your home, your life? It means you can lose them any day, this way or the other.

Do you know what it means to collect and pile up memories and happy moments in your days, in your years, in your life? It means you will never ever lose them, not even when you finally close your eyes not to open them up again. These memories and happy moments might pass but will live on forever, they will never be gone as they have already happened therefore cannot be taken away any more.

You better lose your stuff to start appreciating what cannot be lost.

Stop piling up and start living, please.

SOLD

The simple blue bracelet

For many long years I collected fashion photography and editorial scans on my computer. I loved fashion and I loved photography so the combination of the two was really a kind of hobby. Then I lost my hard drive and all my photos on it. I started collecting again and some years later when I had a nice huge collection on another computer, I lost it all again. Then I did not start it all over partly because these two cases and partly because I was not that passionate about it any longer.

Yesterday I lost my hard drive on my work laptop too. I was not that scared or stressed about it - I already did this twice so why worry about losing things again.

In the end, we could recover most of the data and save them on the new hard drive so the end is happy.

The photos that help me present the simple blue bracelet are from many different photographers who I cannot credit as I do not have the names, but for those interested here is the list of the fashion designers: Chloé, Beige, Armani, Peter Som and Marni.

SOLD

Sarah

Sarah is the name of this earring.

The only reason is that I opened up the Bible at the Book of Tobit, at the chapter of the Blindness and the Test (or probation) of Sarah, as you see in the picture.

I have not read them yet but tonight I will.

As they say, the Bible should not be read as a usual non-fiction novel but by reading it by chapter, wherever you open up the book. I wonder what it has to say now.
