About the presented product:
‘Mushrooms on your ear’ is a sustainably produced booklet, made of handmade paper from old prints. The designs are printed with Riso. The booklet contains nine pairs of earrings inspired by Dutch mushrooms. In the booklet I take you along these mushrooms. I tell stories about the mushrooms and about my connection with them. With the earrings I want to invite everyone to go outside and look for the beautiful little surprises that nature has to offer. Wearing and contributing is the core of ‘Mushrooms on your ear’. I want to transfer my love for Dutch mushrooms and nature to whoever reads this booklet. I want to invite that person to wear the earrings and tell the stories. And I hope that it leads to a positive contribution to our ecosystem.
