the cats house




i made afew vitrines for Onéa design shop. those vitrines are made of glass and box shape but the shop owner E calls them as "house." so i made a vitrin with a house shape, this time.

i acid-etched cats images on the walls and on the roof. you see? foggy and fuzzy cats walking around on the glass house. there are 3 of them.

this cats house is now at the Onéa. please go and check it out!

a travel to the south





i was in Estonia for 4 days.
as same as my last trip to Sweden, this trip was also short but full of fun.

only 1.5 hours on the boat! easy ride to there, indeed.

spent time with my friend M.

went to an outdoor music festival in the countryside with M, S and other friends who i saw them last time 5 years ago!! great to meet them all!!

staid at M's parents house. her mother made us cottage cheese!! so fresh. ate it with the mother-made berries jam. yum-yummmmm!!
M's mother baked us wonderful cakes, too. sweet of her.

at last, visited M's studio in Tallinn. she also works with glass. she got a great view to the old town!! M took me to some glass suppliers. unfortunately, i could not find the glass sheet that i was hoping to find there. but fund out that glass sheets are less expensive there than in Finland. according to the shop girl, Finnish glass artists often come to buy glass sheets to Estonia. i see, i see.
