Saying Goodbye To 2009...

What a better way to say goodbye than remembering 10 wonderful things from the past year?

Well, here are mine:

1. Joining the European Street Team on Etsy.

(The ring you can see in the picture was made by www.evihan.etsy.com )

2. Travelling to Holland.

3. Meeting fantastic people in Maastricht.

4. Getting a very necessary new camera!

5. Spending time with the ones I love... :)

6. Saving a homeless kitty from starving

(no pictures of the actual kitty, but here you have a lovely picture of another cute cat! :) )

7. Petting my cat and dog.

8. My first year on Etsy! (plus the first 1000 hearts in my shop and the 200th sale!)

9. Watching amazing and deeply moving films...

10. Being on my first craft fair!

And there are many other things I´m sure I forgot!

I just hope the new year will be as good as this one was.

Happy New Year!!!

I Love Taking Pictures...

Because of my work, I´m "forced" to take pictures all the time of the new items for the shop. But when I say forced, I really don´t mean it, because I really love all the process of taking photos.

Now, that I´m back behind the camera, I feel a extremely wonderful feeling of joy, even if I have to be standing there one or two, or even three, hours to find what I´m looking for in a picture.

I´ve just made some maths and I think I´m taking an average of 1000 pictures every week! It´s scary number, when you only can pick five to use for a listing!

And sometimes, I try some "artistic" shots (like the ones I´m showing you in this post).

I love the work of all those professional photographers, who take incredible shots, with gorgeous lightnings and effects... Photography is a fantastic art.

I hope you have enjoyed my pictures :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

So Cute It Hurts...

Today I´m going to share with you my "Anti-stress Therapy"...

When I urgently need a break, I spend 5 minutes watching these funny, and also very cute, pictures. That gives me a good mood and works as a charger for my "batteries", hehe.

But, where to find fun and cute in big dosis and combined? My favorites sites are these:

And here is a mini dosis of cute and fun :) (Don´t miss the video at the end! A really adorable kitty is in there!)
