I went to my studio and checked that my plants were still alive, fiddled a bit, went to my frame maker to frame some paintings for my upcoming exhibition (we had a long chat and I got to know him even better), bought some art supplies and did some paper works. This week will probably be mostly preparations, research and administration (bookkeeping!), but next week I'll start some serious studio time - I've so been looking forward to it!
During my vacation I made myself this little box for my new bookbinding supplies following the instructions from Books, Boxes and Portfolios - Binding, Construction and Design Step-by-Step by Franz Zeier (great book). I really enjoyed it! I feel that maybe making a lot of boxes and portfolios could be the way for me to solve my chaos with papers and little things?

Jomenvisst, nu är det dax för ett nytt år. En ny start - en ganska skön känsla:)
En sak till, när jag först såg den där lådan med lite saker i tänkte jag att du nog skulle berätta något spännande minne (som du gjorde för några år sedan)
Men tji fick jag!
Great job on the box! I think all we artist type love the New Year for all of its' renewal and fresh start possibilities:)
