Oh, to hear that makes me REALLY happy!

As an inspiration for our living space as well as for jewelry making I love to browse interior magazines.

It's so wonderful to dream about all these amazing furniture pieces, floor and wall designs, decorations, tips, ideas...and OF COURSE it's also fun to peek how others choose to live via home story's.

Don't you agree?

So, right now many of my favorite magazines or blogs like ELLE DECORATION, DECO HOME or DECOR 8  share their color finds:

green walls with pink ceilings, beautifully over dyed oriental rugs, flowers and birds on sofas and tables, intense blue pillows, yellow throws....

I like, what Sabine Nedelchev - editor in chief at Elle Decoration says about color:" Color is a risk, yes,..., BUT (also) the chance, that you will be the winner with your color confession! A winner, who gains enormous energy, admiration, aesthetics, and liveliness." 

Just FANTASTIC!

I always dreamed about creating a bright and colorful jewlery collection and I'm glad to see it coming alive! 

For me, color is like a kind and friendly extra language: it speaks to you; it expresses your feelings, cheers you up, comforts, changes your mood, tells story's about you, brightens your day...

I love to wear a colorful piece of jewlery for all those reasons...

Smart in combination with soft natural clothing tones, always powerful with black and grey one's or joyful and exuberant with even more colors and patterns.

There is just no limit for colors! 

What about you - Do you have a (color) limit? 

And since it's Friday, please say hello to Steffi and Mr. Linky... 

Many of you have asked about the jewelry life i had before the birth of my sweet son and our move to the U.S.

Both events actually happened pretty much at the same time, so back then I thought: "Oh, perfect - this will be a nice little creativity refreshing break from designing. I'll leave my workplace in Germany and I'll start again in a couple years...!" not knowing, that this was going to be a much longer stay than originally planned....

Yeah...all of the sudden it's been 12 years later and I have done a lot different things in this time BUT designing and crafting jewelry...

NOW

FINALLY - after carefully dusting layers of dust-bunnies off my old workspace...  

...I'm sitting down creating a little lebenslustiger.com collection!  

It's been an interesting process so far, because over the time of all those years with all it's great big and small life-moments for which i feel so grateful, my work and life attitude has much shifted from being a seriously ambitious Goldsmith to being a seriously ambitious Lifesmith in search for a more joyful and vivacious existence. Cutting edge design has been replaced by happily cutting yummy apples; hours of bending over the workplace by hours bend over my yoga mat or spend with my family.

Exactly THIS 'spirit' will be reflected in the style of lebenslustiger.com jewelry. 

Ethically conscious work methods and material choices together with playful, vibrant color compositions, messages and expressions will result in exuberant, poetic pieces, which will be reminders and impulsion's to live life fully.

Here is a sneak preview of pieces that could become your companions in traveling your life with you every day; happy to accompany you in the flow or cheer you up if you need to.

Have fun imagining....
