Farakaza še vedno ustvarja. 🙂
Ja, priznam — tole objavljanje gre Farakazi težko od rok. Od rogov. 🐐

Hja. Rajši ustvarjava kot objavljava.

Tokrat je v igri talna luč, ki bo prvič na ogled že prav kmalu na Festivalu idrijske čipke.
................

Farakaza is still creating. 🙂
Yes, I admit — posting regularly doesn’t really come naturally to Farakaza. Or should I say… to our horns. 🐐

Well. We simply prefer creating over posting.

This time, it’s a floor lamp in the making, which will soon be presented for the first time at the Idrija Lace Festival.

After sunny April, finally rainy May!
Upside down weather.
But good for the gardens.
For the green ones and for our rusty one. 😉

Nastaja še ena viseča luč.
Ti je všeč ta vzorec?

Narisala ga je Zorka Rupnik in ga hranijo v Mestnem muzeju Idrija pod oznako ZR 323. Jaz sem ga pa še malo predelala.
Ko nanj posije sonce/svetloba, pa zasije v vsej svoji lepoti. 😊
....................

Another pendant lamp is in the making.
Do you like this pattern?

The pattern was drawn by Zorka Rupnik and is kept in the Idrija Municipal Museum under the mark ZR 323. I adjusted it a little.

When the light shines through it, it really comes to life. 😊

Prej — stoletni hrastovi tramovi.
Potem — omarica.
Ne bi si mislil, kaj vse ta les skriva v sebi.

Pred kratkim sva nekaj tramov odpeljala na razrez in sušenje, da si zagotoviva nov material za naprej. :)
.................

Before — century-old oak beams.
After — a cabinet.
I wouldn’t have thought what this wood was holding inside.

Recently, we took a few beams for cutting and drying,
to prepare new material for future work. :)

Vreme: deževno.
Luči: stenske.
Za: Slaščičarna Kotiček sreče

Temu se reče dober »timing«. Not. 😄
Štirinajst dni pada dež. In ravno včeraj, ko sta dve lučki za slaščičarno Kotiček sreče – Bloomin’ Cakes končno pripravljeni do tiste faze, ko lahko gresta na dež po svojo patino — evo ga. Dež se ustavi.

Se tolaživa, da je to modro nebo danes le začasno.
Čeprav, iskreno, po dolgem času prav paše uzreti malo sonca. ☀️

Zdaj pa kar bo, bo.
Sonce je ok. Dež tudi.
Zdaj veste, zakaj. 😉........

This is what you call good “timing.” Not. 😄
Fourteen days of rain. And just yesterday, when two lamps for Kotiček sreče – Bloomin’ Cakes finally reached the stage where they can go out into the rain to get their patina — there you go. The rain stops.

We keep telling ourselves that this blue sky is only temporary.
Although, honestly, after such a long time, it does feel good to see a bit of sunshine. ☀️

Now, whatever comes, comes.
Sun is fine. Rain too.
Now you know why. 😉

Nov projekt v teku.
Vesela sem, da bo Farakaza lahko popestrila lokalno slaščičarno Kotiček sreče 🍰✨, kjer diši po sladkem in dobrem.

Nahaja se v Spodnji Idriji in gleda na pobočje, ki nosi svojo zgodbo. Prav tam se je nekoč pasla tudi tista legendarna Pr’farska kaza, po kateri je Farakaza dobila ime.

Danes sem imela še super pomagača.
Z njim gre vse malo počasneje, a je tako lepše. 🙂

Tudi v slaščičarno me vedno spremljata pomagača — tam pa gre ravno obratno: vse hitreje.
Koščki sreče kar skopnijo s krožnika. 😉
In tudi takrat je lepo. Ko srečo delimo...................

New project in progress.
I’m happy that Farakaza will add a special touch to the local pastry shop Kotiček sreče – Bloomin’ Cakes. 🍰✨

It’s located in Spodnja Idrija, overlooking a hillside full of stories. Somewhere there, the legendary Fara goat once grazed — the very one that gave Farakaza its name.

Today, I had a great little helper with me.
With him, everything goes a bit slower — but that's when it feels nicer. 🙂

I always take little helpers with me to the pastry shop— only there, everything goes the other way: much faster.
Little pieces of happiness disappear quickly from the plate. 😉
And that’s beautiful as well. When happiness is shared.

Ko hiša končno utihne in »kozlička« zaspita,
se prižgejo druge luči.

Takrat razmišljava, ustvarjava brez hitenja. V tišini večera.
Včasih gre, včasih obstane — in je prav tako.

Ker časa ni v neskončnost, si ga jemljeva po koščkih. Z brcanjem naprej, ko je treba.
Sprejmeva tempo, ki ga imamo — in v njem vztrajava. Ker se o izdelkih večkrat pogovarjava pred otroki, je njuna percepcija nekako taka:
»Tati, zakaj pa vsi hočejo naše lučke?« 😂
Saj jih ne. Ustvarjava, ker se v tem najdeva, ker v tem uživava. Ko pa so izdelki še komu všeč in jih izberejo za okras svojega doma, sva iskreno vesela.

Prihajajo namizne lučke! Zdaj pa zares. 🙃 Midva jih »sanjava« že dve leti.
Gre počasi. A tako mora biti. Tako si želiva.
Ker veva, kje so najine najpomembnejše luči.
V sosednji sobi vlečejo dreto.
........................

When the house finally quiets down and the little “goats” fall asleep,
other lights turn on.

That’s when we think and create. Slowly. Without rushing. In the quiet of the evening.
Sometimes it flows, sometimes it pauses — and that’s okay.

Because time isn’t endless, we take it in small pieces. Pushing forward when needed.
We accept the pace we have — and we stay with it. Since we often talk about our work in front of the kids, their perception is something like:
“Daddy, why does everyone want our lamps?” 😂
Well — they don’t. We create because we find ourselves in it, because we truly enjoy it. And when our pieces resonate with someone else and they choose them for their home, we’re genuinely happy.

Table lamps are coming! For real this time. 🙃 We’ve been “dreaming” them for two years already.
It’s slow. But it has to be. That’s how we want it.
Because we know where our most important lights are.

Ideje so kot snežinke. ❄️
Vsaka drugačna. Vsaka se stopi, če jo predolgo držiš samo v glavi.

Najine ideje že kar nekaj časa rahlo zmrzujejo — predvsem tiste za namizno in talno svetilo — a vemo, da tam ne bodo več dolgo zdržale. Morajo v izvedbo. Preveč neizvedenih idej se stopi kot sneg in ti na koncu samo še razmoči možgane. Edini način, da jih malo osušiš, se sliši preprosto: narediti to, kar veš, da moraš.

In ja — včasih je to zelo, zelo težko.

December je bil tak. Od uvoda do zaključka.
Kot da se nikamor ne premakneš, čeprav se dnevi kar dogajajo.

Za uvod gripa. Oba »kozlička«. Pa še midva.
Potem planirani pobeg na Pokljuko — za kar smo neskončno hvaležni. Narava, igra, sneg, tišina, družina. Nabrala sva si nove moči in si že zavihala rokave… 🙂
..po vrnitvi domov pa — bam. Covid.
In za konec (ali začetek 2026) še (pre?)živahen kozliček s pretresom možganov in nočjo v pediatrični bolnišnici.

Občutek, da se je vse zataknilo. Da stoji -najina percepcija. V resnici je še kako zelo teklo — samo ne tja, kamor bi si želela. V takih trenutkih ni druge izbire, kot da pritisneš na gumb "pojdi-s-tokom".

A verjameva, da bo ta tok kmalu spet stekel tudi čez najine poljane.
Do Festivala idrijske čipke si želiva, da te snežinke ne ostanejo samo v glavah— ampak dobijo obliko: namizno in talno luč. Delava na tem, korak za korakom, tudi zato, ker ste po njiju že večkrat spraševali.

Naj naju v tem letu spremlja duh Pr’farske kaze: malo trme, veliko vztrajnosti in ravno prav norosti, da se sanje ne stopijo — ampak postanejo resnične. 🐐✨.....................................
Ideas are like snowflakes. ❄️
Each one is different. Each one melts if you keep it in your head for too long.

Our ideas have been gently freezing for a while now — especially the ones for a table lamp and a floor lamp — but we know they won’t stay there much longer. They need to move into making. Too many unrealised ideas melt like snow and in the end just leave your mind soggy. The only way to dry it out sounds simple: do the thing you know you have to do.

And yes — sometimes that’s very hard.

December was exactly like that. From start to finish.
As if you’re not moving anywhere, even though the days keep happening.

First, the flu. Both little “goats”. And us too.
Then a short escape to Pokljuka — for which we are endlessly grateful. Nature, play, silence, family. We gathered some fresh energy and rolled up our sleeves… 🙂
..and then, back home — bam. Covid.
And to finish it all off (or start 2026), a very lively little goat with a concussion and a night in the children’s hospital.

A feeling that everything got stuck. That it all stopped - our perception, at least. In reality, things were moving — just not in the direction we had hoped. In moments like that, there’s nothing else to do but press the "go-with-the-flow" button.

But we believe that this flow will soon run through our fields again.
By the time of the Idrija Lace Festival, we wish for these snowflakes not to stay only in our heads — but to take shape as a table lamp and a floor lamp. We’re working on it, step by step, also because many of you have already been asking about them.

May the spirit of the Pr’farska goat guide us this year — a bit of stubbornness, plenty of perseverance, and just enough madness so that dreams don’t melt… but become real. 🐐✨

Zoran je izdelal prvo omarico iz kolekcije reYUsed.YU kot Yugoslavia. Reused kot ponovno uporabljeno.Skoraj vse na njej ...
26/11/2025

Zoran je izdelal prvo omarico iz kolekcije reYUsed.
YU kot Yugoslavia. Reused kot ponovno uporabljeno.

Skoraj vse na njej je iz starih omar iz 80-ih, ki so takrat krasile domove po vsej bivši Jugoslaviji.
Vodila in noge so nova, vse ostalo pa je rešeno iz večjih omar, ki bi jih marsikdo brez pomisleka odpeljal na odpad.

Zoran pa ne. On je te ostanke izbral že pred dvema letoma. In zdaj je končno prišel trenutek, ko je ideja dobila svojo obliko.

Ena ideja osvobojena.
In z njo tudi nekaj “ozemlja” v kamri za Zoranove "odpadke".
YU-hu!
On je najbrž najbolj vesel osvobojene ideje, jaz-Kristina pa osvobojenega prostora. 🙂

Sprednja vratca si lahko vsak izbere po svoje:
– sijaj iverne plošče starih omar,
– staro reliefno steklo,
– vratca prekrita z retro tapetami,
– ali na novo furnirana stara iverna plošča.
Malo nostalgije, malo sodobnosti — čisto tako, kot želiš.

Zoran ima sicer nekaj posebnega talenta za stvari, ki bi jih drugi z veseljem zavrgli.
Pozabljene omare, plošče, odrabljeni tramovi — v njih vidi zgodbe, ne odpada.
In prav iz takih kosov nastajajo zanimivi izdelki.
Tudi ta omarica je ena izmed njih.

Če koga pokliče — točno ta omarica je na voljo.
Cena: 300 €.

Pa tudi drugače: veliko prostora v kamri je še za osvoboditi!
Beri: materiala je še za nekaj podobnih reYUsed omaric. 😉........

Zoran has finally finished the first cabinet from the reYUsed collection.
YU as in Yugoslavia. Reused as in given a second life.

Almost everything comes from old 1980s wardrobes. Only the slides and legs are new; the rest has been rescued from pieces most would throw away.

He picked these panels two years ago, checking what they might “say” to him. Now the idea has taken shape — and a bit of storage space is freed up too. YU-hoo!

Front doors can be chosen: glossy old particleboard, vintage glass, retro wallpaper, or newly veneered panels. A little nostalgia, a little modernity — exactly as you wish.

Zoran has a special talent for seeing stories in what others call waste. And from those stories come the best pieces.
This cabinet is one of them.
