About Me

Just a girl from the south of the Netherlands, age 27. Friendly and inquisitive. Enjoys music a lot.

Currently, I'm working as a PR person for an environmental organization. I do this full-time, so it keeps me busy the most of the week.

In my spare time I visit concerts and work as a crewmember of the Dutch Nightwish fanclub StarGazers. Furthermore I like making websites and surfing the internet. More about my music and interests on this page...

My Interests



StarGazers.nl - Swimming - Going out - Making jewelry - Internet - Webdesign

I'd like to meet:

I'm looking for people with the same interests. Do you like the same bands, please add me. And I'd really like it if you'd leave me a comment below.

Jewelry

I like making jewelry. I'm practising this hobby for some years now. I've already made a whole collection, but it's impossible for me to wear everything. So I sell a part of my jewelry at my website www.frozendream.nl . The money is used to continue my hobby. Please have a look at my site and let me know what you think of it.

I try to follow the latest trends with my creations. I get inspiration by looking to the jewelry in the shops and at the internet. I also make jewelry on request. So if you are looking for a necklace or bracelet to go with a certain outfit, don't hesitate to contact me.

Nightwish

In the year 2000 I visited my first Nightwish concert. I was very impressed with the great show and the energy of the band. From that moment on I called myself a Nightwish fan. Now, some years later, I still like their music. And I am not the only one. The Dutch fans have united in the fanclub StarGazers.

My Blog

Bubbled over with ideas

I'm overflown over with ideas for new jewelry. Very strange: sometimes days, even weeks on end I have no inspiration at all. But the last weeks I had so many good ideas. ...

Playful and asymmetric

Today I finished the necklaces that I told you about last time. I think their style can be described as "playful" because they are asymmetric and I used a lot of different beads and pendants. Bec...
