How would you describe a typical Sunday?
Breakfast is commonly served on a breakfast board. The hole is designed to hold a boiled egg. |
We
like to lie in, wake up slowly and have a leisurely breakfast with
our family. Typically we'll do the things we like; read a book, ride
our bikes, bake cakes or meet up with our friends & family for a
chat over something nice to eat.
And here a quite obvious question: How did you become a talented crafts person / designer? What inspired you to do this?
When
I
met
my husband,
he
is
a carpenter,
and I learned to
love
working
with
wood. Together we started
to
build
wooden
toys and eventually sold them at our local christmas markets. With
our own children we learned to love the simple toys.

Its Fill-in-the-blanks time. So, please fill in the blanks:
I love nature because she gives us power and inspiration
If I could live anywhere I'd live at my place, an old farmhouse in the country side
If I weren't a designer / maker I'd be a cook
People who like nature will like our creations.
