Wikaila
Have you heard about Wikaila lamps? It’s the newest yakayaga product.
The main goal of this project was to search found objects that can be transformed into an elegant lamp. The name Wikaila means Grand Canyon in Yavapai dialect and reflects perfectly the structure of this lamp.

big fat 20
One more cupcake lampshade packed and delivered. Big thanks to you folks! If I have done the math right 5 of those is lightning Madrid apartments, 3 are in Warsaw, 4 are hanging in Cracow, 3 in Chorzów, 2 in Katowice, 1 is in Wrocław, 1 in Ontario and 1 in Brooklyn NY. That makes the grand total of big fat 20!!
During the last 4 years a few hundred pieces of jewellery, headbands, fascinators, bags and clothing have been sold around Europe and last week the very first eco-leather yakayaga fascinator was sent to Australia.
Thank you all my dear friends, promoters, buyers and supporters. It is all because of you yakayaga one step at the time is going global
PS. I’d like to make a photo gallery, so if you happen to have any pictures of yakayaga designs? Pics of you, your interiors…. Please send them to me.

Just Organize Yourself
I haven’t
posted anything for the last 7 months. I’m really terribly sorry for that. It’s time
for a little summary of what has happened between then and now.
Last
September, after spending year and a half in Madrid, I decided to move back to
Poland. It was both due to personal and professional reasons. First month was
all about meeting and greeting all my “long time not seen” friends, partying
hard till the break of dawn and Poland tripping. I had all these thoughts
running through my head like a hurricane - What should I do next? Should I
stay? Should I go somewhere else again? In the meantime a job offer popped
up. In a form of a kids fashion designer
position. (You can all stop laughing now). I decided to go for it and landed in
Warsaw, 300 km due NE from Silesia. I had to organise my life from scratch yet
again. Surprisingly for the first time in a year or so I felt truly alive. You
know I am all about changes and challenges J There was I, a freelancer till I
die, trying to adjust to working from 9 to 5. It took quite a while cause after
coming back home hammered after a long day, designing something under your own
tag is seriously sometimes the last thing on your mind. However I am a
supergirl and in December all the hostesses at the Gala Przedsiębiorcy Roku
2012 wore my dresses. I also participated in the 6th edition of Przetwory Fair,
met few new clients, lots of new friends,
learnt some new things, sold a dozen of cupcake lampshades and started
the year with the strong feeling of being invincible… I rearranged my working
space to bring inspiration and push me to be better, faster and stronger.
Feeling
wind under my wings, I’ve decided to prepare the first DIY this year. It would
be “organizing myself” –and I mean it – I will start with extremely easy “How
to personalize your 1.5€ worth
organizer”. Yes, I realise it’s May and I am already 5 months behind schedule
…..what can I say - it’s never too late for a little pimping.
Xoxo

silesia
He pasado los últimos viajando alrededor de mi amada Silesia. La tierra donde los edificios del siglo XIX se mezclan con el industrialismo. La tierra de los trabajadores del acero, fábricas y minas de carbón. El lugar que amo por todos aquellos que crecieron aquí.
I've spend last few days traveling a bit around my lovely Silesia. The land where the 19th century buildings blend with industrialism and socialist realism architecture. The land of steelworks, factories and coal mines. The place loved by all those who grown up here.
