Hi there! My name is Loraine- on grijs I post almost daily about design/ art/fashion because I need to see beautiful things and train my eyes for it in the meantime. Oh… and I never use blog titles, instead I talk with signs and images.
In the process of blogging I started to feel the need again to make things myself. So today I would like to show you what I’m doing. The rest of the week will be about things that caught my eye as usual + nice places in Amsterdam.
And I want to thank Grace for being so generous to give me this opportunity and not unimportant…. to finally be able to show you BIGGER PICTURES! Which is a big part of the fun I must say…
CHOCOLATE is the name of this project. The idea is that they’re dipped in chocolate. For some reason I started making tea towels and in this case I wanted to silk screen them. That’s why I’m showing you a glimpse of the screen, because I’m really happy that I’m ready to start printing them myself.
It all started with these…the DIPPED project. It’s linen dipped in fabric dye.There are 8 of them and I’m busy making a shop for them which will launch the first week of April.
I very much enjoyed preparing for this guest appearance…..I took a lot of pictures. Hope and wish it’s going to be pleasurable for your eyes as well!

BTW you didn’t always use signs as title did you?

Hi Loraine -
so nice to see you here. I love your intro and hearing a bit more about the tea towels. I’m looking forward to seeing your posts this week -everything you post about is always so inspiring. xo

So nice to read your guest blog, Lorain – and to see your big pics! I really do enjoy the way you curate your blog, and now your guest blog too.
Hey Heather :) i’m happy you’re enjoying it, thanks for stopping by…
Very funny and very creative. Not sure if you are just trying to be one of them or both. I bet that took a lot of time!
I’m assuming you’re involved with textiles or fashion?
Hi Michelle , i graduated from the audiovisual department in art school, i made video art. which isn’t me . So i guess you can say i’m trying to be one.Your bet that it took a lot of time is correct , because i have to start from the beginning.And i am many steps behind on people who did graduate from the right department.
