You can purchase a mug like the one on the cover image. Nice gift!
The book has a website where you can look up exhibitions and other events around the book:
Listen to a fun 30 minute radio interview with the author on the Eclectic Author's Showcase!
Brigitte talks about what it was like working with the artists and reads some fun excerpts.
I have always thought that the back of a jewelry piece is as important as the front. If you feel the same way, consider sending images of the front and backside of your brooches to Lorena Angulo asap. Lorena is looking for images to place in a future crafthaus online exhibition!

Thank you for your comment and suggestion about my work. Yes, I have seen Katharina Moch's work before. very interesting! I wonder which show you are talking about. You mean talente2010 or is there another show coming? I really wish I can go to Munich for schmuck&talente on march but I may not be able to make it this time. But I was in Munich for Talente this year and it was such a nice experience. Although I cannot go this time, I will definately check your exhibition on-line.
Good luck on your new series :)

Your wooden jewelries have such a lovely texture and interesting composition. I feel that the shape of "house" makes perfect sense with the organic nature which gives me warm and comfortable feeling. Curious to see your next series.

Enjoy crafthaus ! Brigitte
your work is really a challenge. although you face some frustation at the moment. you will break though it
I quite like your work in metal sheet, no matter they are in black or any other color. they are so unique and full of sculpture style.
also you practice them to mixe paper and metal together really make me interesting in seeing your development.
your are a skillfull craft maker and briilant designer.
I am looking forward your work~~
