Studio Friday for October 27th

This week’s topic: MY COLLECTION(S)!

“Most people collect something, it would be fun to see what others have in their collections.” ~ Silvia

Ohh… my collections! I have so many collections off different things so I can hardly count them all. I have collections of stuff to create with but also non creative collections.


My creative collections contains a collection of fabric that constant is growing, I have a small collection of knifes from Svante Djärv that I have written about earlier, I have a lot of papers and magazines. I really like to buy pearls in different shapes and forms which have result in this box to the left. I have a lot of sewing thread and stuff like that. Hmm… Sometimes I think that I have been a squirrel in a former life. But it’s nice to have all this things. I can always create something or listen to music, read a book or carve something with the knife.

The non creative collections come in many different shapes and forms. To start with I think my CD-collections are the biggest. I don’t really know how many I have but about 350 of them I think. If I should compare with some other CD-collectors I don’t have so many of them I think, but to non-collectors 350 is a lot. But I always want more CDs all the time! I also more or less collect books, even if I try to borrow as much as possible at the library. But they are many to. These two things can be a good help when you do something creative so they are both creative and non-creative stuff I think. Some how I have managed to get a rather big collection of vases too. I have bought many of them at IKEA, like this three for example. Really sweet and really cheap, a nice combination!
