Recycling factory 2012

This weekend me and my friends from Kimara attended the Recycling Factory market, a sustainable lifestyle event. The event attracts loads of people and it makes you happy to see how many people that are thinking about how they consume today. Everything that is sold in the market can be bought with a good conscious! We built our booth on Friday night, it took hours as usually! I love "before" shots and remembered to snap one!

And this is how our cosy home looked a few hours later, nearly finished...

This is our "candy table". With brooches by me and lace accessories by loru and rings by karuski.

I made a huge pile of word cushions and I still have most left and will soon have them up for sale on Etsy. The pretty white pillows are from tuuni.

It always feels a bit sad when a fun event comes to an end, I began to feel at home in this place!

Do ask if you would like to know anything about what you see in the pictures! If you are curious to see more, please visit us on Facebook!

Thanks to everyone who came this weekend! And to you who were too far away to come - I hope you have enjoyed looking at the pictures!

Kiitos kauniista sanoista Juulia! Minä luulen että me tavattiin viikonloppuna! Mä taisin olla se jolle maksoit lusikoista :) Aurinkoisia päiviä! t.Kajsa

Teidän osasto oli niin ihana. Aina. käsityösi ovat niin suurta silmäniloa, etten osaa sanoiksi pukea. Enkä myöskään osannut taaskaan/vieläkään yhdistää sinua ja töitäsi. Olisin saanut sanotuksi kehuni livesti. Pitäisi ehkä katsoa se ohjelma.

Taotutin kuusi lusikkaa. Ne ovat aarteitani. Koko tapahtuma on yksi vuotuinen suuri voima ja hupi. Toivottavasti näen kauniita tuotteitasi taas jossain. Ja ehkä sinutkin. Hyvää kesää!

You mean the white frame? The colourful shapes are lace ear-rings, they are mounted onto white card-board. Here:

Wow, everything is so pretty! I'd love a home like that!
I'm curious about the big black frame with the white and coloured oval shapes in it - what is it?

I saw this on your facebook page. (thank you for the translation here though).
Can't wait until my trip there in July.

Love the before shot. I just helped a friend set up her booth at the master gardening show. It takes hours to get it to look right. Unless you have done a show, you don't know how much work goes into a show - just from the vendor standpoint.
