Magic Mushrooms

Noo... these are not those mushrooms that make you crazy high or whatever.. these are magic because yesterday, they weren't and today there they were in my garden! What a lovely surpise! I have no idea what kind of mushrooms these are so I'm not planning to eat them although they look pretty edible to me...Don't they? Anyone wanna try them first?
I think it's wonderful how nature blooms in the least expected places.

So my enthusiasm showed in Etsy too as I quickly created this mushroom treasury - by the way, check out the shmetsy tools, they are true lifesavers for a treasury maker :)

Secret Conspiracy Unveiled

So... as you know I have quite an addiction to buy stuff from Etsy. I received recently a new package with goodies and there it was... another Werther's Original candy! It is like the third time that I receive this particular type of candy in a package with handmade goodies.. from totally different sellers! I wonder, is there some kind of secret agreement between Etsy sellers that I don't know about?  Is there a Werther's Original commercial that says "the best candy for the handmade addicts?"
Now don't get me wrong, these are one of my favorites candies, so keep them coming!

Have you ever received something surprising along with your handmade purchase?

finally, an A!

I remember, during primary school, that all my grades were A, except at the calligraphy class... I always failed to succeed... my mom tried to teach me "make them like beads on  a wire"... My letters were all chunky and had a lot of corners. But in time I tried to overcome this defect and now I can proudly paint initials on my books. A lot of customers ask for this service and are very happy with the outcome. It's true, while I monogram them,  there's no room for errors so everybody has to walk on eggshells around me... or else!
