My Workplace...

NOT my sewing room.. :o)
It´s Still under CONSTRUCTION....!!!


But I thought I´d share some photos from what I work with during my days at work...

I work at a Recycle Store...
 where we have a Store... where we sell almost everything that comes in given to us by people...
Some things are just sold as they are...but some things we Upcycle or just ReMake...

I work at the Textile Department...
and I work as a Product Developer...
I test ..I sew ...and try to find fun things to do....
mostly for our ReMake products...

This picture is from "Textilen" where I work....
We have done some reorganizations since these pictures were taken...but 
you get the idea ... I hope..:o))

Some things to work with...

Some things made this winter....


I used some of our old prints to make a noteboard...
this was fun...and a great idea!!

Really Bright and BOLD!!

Dont you just love that strawberry print....:O)

The remade Shop around Valentines day!!

Pillows, the patchwork chair....the heart mobiles...
 made by me and some toilet bags too... :o)

And a flower I made two weeks ago!


I LOVE my work.. :o)
 but it also takes a lot of creativity away from me... 
but it both gives and takes....
Some days I am totally empty when coming home.... :o)

Sadly this work ends in July...
have talked to the BOSS.. and hope to be able to continue..
but there is no good hope for that!!
Always lack of MONEY!! :o(

Well well.. thats it... 
now you know what I do on workdays...
when I come home I study ...:O)

And NOW I better continue with my 
Sewing room!! :o)

See you!!

  9. Stina, your work place looks absolutely wonderful, but stressful too...What if you don't have just the right thing to finish something!! No wonder you arrive home "thoughted out"..all your creative juices are used at work. But what fun you must have!! I do hope they find someway to keep you on.. I know I would love to shop in that creative environment.
    Hugs Gloria

  11. Hi.
    What a great place to work, but no wonder you are "empty" when you come home.
    Hope they will find some money so you can stay.
    Have a great day.

  17. Hello Stina, You are a very very creative and innovative person and everything you create is fantastic looking. Sad that they will lose such creative employee but I reckon you can do well with your own home business. Hugs Judy

  18. Hey Stina! Thanks for the interesting tour of your workplace - and what a wonderful place to work! :0) I can see, though, why sometimes you wouldn't feel like creating once you got home. Fingers crossed that they find funding to keep you working with such fun recycled things for longer! :0) Good luck with the sewing room ... Tee! Hee! Hee! :0) Bear Hugs! KRIS

    I have had my pc not working for a few days; I missed blogger world so much
    your sewing room looks great
    what a pity about your work, hope you find a solution soon; you deserve a good place with something related to sewing, patchwork.. you are an inspiration for me, and guess that also for lots of people out there
    big kisses :)
