Happy mail packs are little parcels that I assemble for gift-giving. Cards accumulate so fast in my studio. A lot are made for personal use but a big bulk of what I make are samples for classes. A lot of my cards end up as little boxed sets that I give to family and friends […]

Inspired by Steiner Education

I’m inspired by Steiner education everyday. The Waldorf style of education founded by Rudolf Steiner fascinates me. I like the idea of developing my imagination through sensory experiences. Perhaps that is why I am such an advocate of handmade items. Being a Rudolf Steiner mum to my children, I expose them to handmade things everyday thru the […]
