Speak German, that is, for those of you who don't either.
But that doesn't mean I didn't thoroughly enjoy reading through the wonderful new German mag/zine that Dolores has created: Kleinformat
OK, so maybe I didn't get that much from the articles, but I did delight in the inspiration, creative ideas and eye candy that she has pulled together in the first edition (one assumes that it will be a success and be followed by many more) of Kleinformat.
It's all about kids, play, making and creating. In some ways it reminds me a bit of some on-line kids mags- Small and LMNOP -with plenty of things it would be nice to buy, fun and playful fashion spreads, and full of colour and wonderful images. The added bonuses of this being a hard copy mag include a sticker laden cover and cute printed paper pull-outs with origami instructions.
I was lucky enough to receive a free copy on account of being a contributor- although Dolores and her team were responsible for the translation work to provide German instructions for Cee's Tee Pee pattern.
If you'd like your own you can buy Kleinformat here. Or if you'd like Cee's Tee Pee pattern in English, you can download it via the link on the left in the sidebar (under Do It Yourself).
Thank you soooo much for this charming post!
ReplyDeleteYes, small and lmnop were inspirations, but I looooonged soooo much for a NON-PC-thing, as my kids do not support a mom being in the internet...I assume a behavior other moms know well, too?
A little detail: no team! Just me ...and at the end again a loooot of time in front of the computer...sigh
My pleasure :-D
ReplyDeleteJust you? I take all the rest of my hats off to you- a stupendous effort and amazing achievement!
