After the arrival of my princess, my cartonnage was placed back ... Here and there I did something, but little else.

This year I will still be coming back on slow motion, but for 2011 I promise there will be new products.

1.000 TSURU's

2008-09-12T22:42:00.002Z

I haven't been updating my blog as much as I would like, but there is a very good reason for that - I am almost at the end of my pregnancy :)

Even if I haven't been working so much on boxes, this month I've done a lot of origami, not only for Christmas sale, but... As in Japan there is a believe that if you make 1.000 TSURU's (the little origami piece bird) you will be happy for 1.000 years, so, I decided to make 1.000 TSURUS for the hapiness of my little Maria :)

Preparing Christmas - Flying Cubes

2008-09-08T22:21:00.001Z

For this year I decided to make different origami objects for you to hang on your Christmas Tree or simply to decorate you home...

There are little collections with 6 different patterns and colors, or you can choose a single one - just as a little gift to someone, or, you can also choose to decorate all your tree with my origami Flying Cubes.

Until the end of the month I will have other small objects available, in the meanwhile, I will leave you with some of these nice Flying Cubes for you to see the very nice and original effect they can create.......

Jewelry Box - a detail

2008-08-01T20:02:00.004+01:00

I was very glad to have a client asking me to make a Jewelry Box on purpose for her!

She gave me the measures, a little piece of fabric from RETROSARIA DA ROSA POMAR http://aervilhacorderosa.com/shop/ that she wanted me to use, it is beautiful!! Than we decided about the colors and the materials - the leather was the chosen one...

I am very happy with the final result!! as you can see below ...

My first baby box...

2008-07-17T14:05:00.003+01:00

This was actually the first baby box I did last October, when I was already planning to have a little baby...

My first baby box donne to my first little baby :)

2008-07-17T14:03:00.000+01:00

At that time I didn't know if it would be a baby boy or girl, so, I choose the paper and the colors that I thought would work well for both of them.

Illustrating little Marta's family :)

2008-07-17T12:19:00.005+01:00

I received an order through a friend from another friend who visited my website and she wanted to offer an illustration like my "illustrating families" collection to her friends who were about to have a new member in their family - their little Marta who was born!
By email she sent me a few paragraphs describing the main characteristics of the couple and I put my hands on the work... here is the result :)

Little Marta was born :)

2008-07-17T12:18:00.004+01:00

After making the illustration, I "was not able" to give it away just like this... so, I hand maded a nice white/pink and green box for Marta's mommy to keep her baby's first secrets...

An update...

2008-07-15T12:08:00.005+01:00

Since the beginning of the year, when I started my blog life, I've been adding the pictures of the objects I've been working on. So, if you go across the older posts - from January 'till now, you can see there is already a great diversity of models, shapes, sizes and patterns I've been using.
I guess this shows, as I wanted to, that everything is possible...

Until now I didn't add any price list here because in fact, every piece is a piece itself, so, even the price, depends on what the client wants. Probably I do need to do it in the next future, anyway, for now I hope you will feel free to send me an email and we'll talk about it.

At this right moment I am working on different boxes, that I hope I will be able to show you during this week, so, don't forget to come back soon ;)

Inside the pinochio little box- when you open it, there is a surprise! - a detail I like very much :)

Last week a friend asked me to make some CD's with my portfolio to bring with him to Japan! I was very happy with his idea, and with the result...

2008-07-01T17:46:00.004+01:00

...all of them are different from each other and in it's own style...

2008-07-01T17:22:00.001+01:00

last week an old friend was having her birthday, as we know each other from Macau, I had to use my chinese lock on her box...

2008-06-25T17:27:00.003+01:00

...as she is 40 years old, I couldn't resist to work with one of my favourite papers - the "toile de juis"

2008-06-25T17:23:00.003+01:00

another passion I have - origami. I do love spending hours folding and folding a simple square of paper,

2008-06-19T12:01:00.007+01:00

and finally have a nice shape, like these little origami paper birds.

I was very happy to have a client's assignment to make dozens of origami birds, so, last week my studio was invaded by those nice little paper birds!

2008-06-19T11:56:00.002+01:00

they remember me of Xi'an terracota army!

2008-06-19T11:52:00.001+01:00

I couldn't resist to take them to the garden and make some pictures...

Here I am, back again!

2008-06-13T20:30:00.001+01:00

Well, I have to say that I started this blog without knowing very well the procedures, I mean, not really conscious that I should feed it almost everyday... It is also true that these last couple of months I had other work to do - graphic design work, so, myBox - my hand made products discipline, if I may say so, has been waiting for a while.

Anyway, now I do have some new pieces - all hand made! I've been working on, that I would really like to share, so, here I am back again with some nice objects... hope you will enjoy, I'll be waiting for your feedback!

You just have to choose one, I can suggest the paper and your son, daugther, nephew, niece, or the school boy / girl you choose will be delighted with the help of this magic pencil!!
