Carnevale 2011, we are back!!! - zurück zu Hause!!! PDF Drucken E-Mail

Dear friends,
sorry that it took two weeks to get the fotos on the site. But we still recover from the carnevale.  Since I severely injured my shoulder on the last day in costume (fell down 1.5m of stairs in front of our apartment cause I was distracted by my daughter and stupid me did not pay enough attention to the stairs) and the doc said that I have a shoulder and neck trauma which means arm brace and rest for at least three weeks, we were not able to do much since. I still have bad pain but I believe the doc that this will pass. And what I have is still better than breaking the arm, right?
So this carnevale was not very lucky for me.
Read more about the costumes and what happened in this carnevale in the costumes section.
Here are some links to TV footage that was made this season about me on German and Italian TV: Italienisches Fernsehen, RTL Nachtjournal, RTL Guten Abend, SWR

New plans for next season have already stormed my mind (since I cannot do much more than rest and think at the moment), the next edition of costumes will be GREAT!
In case someone is interested: I will most likely give class in August (most likely 2nd weekend) here in Hamburg to teach interested people my non-sewing-way-to-make-costumes. So, if you wanna come, drop me a mail!!! Numbers are limited!

Enjoy the website, Tanja!



Liebe Freunde,

bitte entschuldigt, dass es so lange gedauert hat, bis die Fotos und Texte online sind. Doch da ich mir dieses Jahr am letzten Tag in Kostüm die Schulter verknackst habe (ich bin 1,5m die Treppe vor unserem Apartment runtergestürzt, als ich mich nach meiner Tochter umschaute), haben wir kaum was machen können, seit wir zurück sind. Der Doc meinte ich hätte ein Schulter- und Schleudertrauma, d.h. mindesten drei Wochen Armbinde und Ruhe. Ich habe immer noch heftige Schmerzen in Schulter und Kopf, aber ich denke, das wird vergehen. Dauert halt etwas.
Aber ist ja immer noch besser, als sich den Arm zu brechen, nicht wahr? Denn es war natürlich der rechte Arm :-)

Ihr könnt auf den Kostümseiten mehr über die Kostüme 2011 und was wir so erlebt haben lesen. Hier sind auch noch ein paar Links zu den TV-Filmchen, die das deutsche und italienische Fernsehen diese Saison über mich gedreht hat: Italienisches Fernsehen, RTL Nachtjournal, RTL Guten Abend, SWR. Viel Spaß beim Gucken.

Die neuen Kostümideen für 2012 springen mich auch schon wieder an, hab ja sonst derzeit nicht viel zu tun :-) Nur so viel: sie werden GROSSartig...hehe

Ach ja, und falls jemand Lust hat: ich werde wohl dieses Jahr in Hamburg imAugust ein Wochenend-Workshops (wahrscheinlich zweites Wochenende im August) anbieten, in denen ich Interessierten meine Ich-kann-nicht-nähen-aber-Kostüme-machen-Technik beibringen werde. Wer mitmachen möchte, bitte kurze Mail an mich schreiben. Plätze sind sehr begrenzt!

Liebe Grüße,
Tanja

1st prize for best costume in Carnevale di Venezia 2008!

For the second time (after 2007)  I won the award for “Best Costume of the Carnival of Venice”! My costume was named “Luna park” – amusement park.

This year I had to succeed in a preselection first (against several hundreds of costumes in two days) and then in the final contest against approx. 30 other costumes from all over the world.

I was stunned to make a dream come true TWICE and win again. What an honour!

More photos can be found on the costume pages.

As a side note: My costume “Casino” worn by my friend Jacqui was placed under the best ten!
