Catching thoughts – DIY notebooks

August 29, 2016 by nadel&gabel

Die Gedanken sind frei. Wer kann sie erraten?  Sie fliegen vorbei wie nächtliche Schatten. Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jäger erschiessen. Es bleibet dabei, die Gedanken sind frei. When my colleague and me were planning our upcoming student research project we soon came to the conclusion that every student should have a place to write down his/her thoughts, ideas, questions. A “Gedankenfänger” (thought catcher) to keep these things in whatever way, words, sketches, scrapbooked newspaper articles,… It should be small, we decided, […]

Minimalism – Laundry bags from SnapPap aka Kraft-Tex

May 16, 2016 by nadel&gabel

  This place has got a bit quiet during the last weeks, for different reasons. One of them was the major spring cleaning up, decluttering and rearranging that happened in this place. And although it comes with costs in time, dorsal pain and patience – to stand the temporary mess – it’s totally worth the effort. There is this connection between outside and inside. Sorting things out, clearing your space has an immediate impact on your mind and soul. Every […]

My work space II – Folded book into mail holder

February 22, 2014 by nadel&gabel

My guilty conscience started in the moment I entered the antiquarian book shop. I couldn’t shake off the feeling that the owner could read it in my face – that I didn’t want to buy one of his books for its content, to read it or give it away … but to destroy it! I had seen some interesting DIY projects reusing old books, for example this, this or this one. But I always asked myself the question: Am I […]

Merry christmas! … and last minute gift wrapping ideas

December 24, 2013 by nadel&gabel

All my gifts are wrapped… ..and now I am totally excited to finally give them away and spend the holidays with my closest ones! When it came to gift wrapping, this year I stayed with kraft paper, black & white, geometric and a dash of gold (wire). The christmas cards I designed myself, fixed – of course – with masking tape [btw: Yes, I long thought about it, but as a font addict finally I couldn’t resist and bought the […]

Recipes, gift wrapping & free labels – Homemade hot chocolate powder and marshmallow starlets

December 16, 2013 by nadel&gabel

The christmas preparations are reaching their final stage. After making or buying all the “big” presents, now it’s the turn of the the small ones: a little something for some colleagues, neighbours,… You know what I mean! This is just the right purpose for a small gift from your kitchen. I came back to my “little bags of sweetness” – nicely packed homemade hot chocolate powder. But instead of cinammon this time I added some dried and grounded orange zest. […]

Azulejo style – Handprinted napkins

November 29, 2013 by nadel&gabel

When I came across those beautiful handcrafted wooden stamps from Blockwallah (in Germany sold by Rayher) at one of my latest visits to my favourite craft shop, I just couldn’t pass. So many different patterns – and aren’t all of them just amazing? I really had a hard to decide which to take! After some first trials on paper (great handcrafted christmas wrapping paper!) I really wanted to use it on fabric and create this beautiful tiled look. Doesn’t the […]
