For your babies

2011-09-05T15:26:00.000-07:00

I was thinking about something very special for babies and small children, specially if they have problems when it's time to go to bed.

I designed a very cute and soft bear, with a pocket in its belly. Inside the pocket I put a little cotton bag filled with dry lavender flowers.

In aromatherapy lavender is wel known for its calming and relaxing effects.

To wash the bear (you can use the washing machine) just take care of taking the cotton bag off.

LION

Presence

Authority

Royalty

Steadiness

The lion represents the ability to stay firm and to enjoy of everything that is calm and balanced and perfectly tuned with the surrounding environment. It brings the absolute awareness of who you are and what you are, the harmony among you and your being, among who you are and what you do.

It represents the union between the light of the sun and the strength of the earth, expanding and distributing all around in an expression of power through a magnificent royalty.

The lion favors the maximum expression of the terrestrial strengths through the power of the sun.

It gives the possibility to show to the others your possibilities and potentiality without necessarily concretizing them in facts. The lion teaches the masculine strength of reference that is expressed through the female element that is less visible .

The strength of the lion constitutes a balancing and healing element when there are around you expressions of non suitable energy that can be negative..

Milano - Cina

2010-04-17T07:00:00.000-07:00

On 15th April, invited by the Milano Stitch and Bitch, I participated to the second edition of "Milano - China Fuori Salone 2010". This event has been born from a group of teachers of the Fashion Design NABA School, creators of the group Do-knit yourself and promoters of a number of initiatives and events with the purpose of experience projects and participation between different cultures, starting with the metaphor of thread and waving.

70 shop's windows in Via Paolo Sarpi, the heart of Milan Chinatown, were set up by students and designers. Also Magda Sayed, founder of Knitta-please from Austin (Texas), took part of the project.
We participate arranging a small Italian greengrocer with fruits and vegetables done using the Amigurumi technique.
