Creative Material: linen


Linens: tekstiles made from fibers of Linum, valued for its exceptional coolness and freshness in hot weather. Linen is usually an expensive textile, and is produced in relatively small quantities. Linen fibers and fabrics can be used to create quite modern-looking garments and accessories.


Linen fiber is pure nature as Danuta of Dreams Factory sais. It's great for ecofriendly jewellery. Combined with natural amber looks really outstanding. Linen jewelerry can be very elegant too.


Monika of Grey Heart Of Stone prefers raw, rough linen yarn to create her crocheted jewellery. Her crochet necklases look so natural and exotic.


How to take care of your linen accessories? As Monika points: you should avoid soaking it in water. If it's really needed you can rinse it gently in water with soap. Than let it dry on its own. Flat items can be sprayed with a little of starch and than ironed.
