I just had to show you this. With some Christmas money burning a hole in her pocket, my daughter decided to browse Etsy in the hope of finding something to spend it on. She finally settled on a little critter from morninglori's shop. Lori made "Alice" to order for us with our choice of fabric and Alice is now winging her way to us across the Atlantic as we speak....

Inauguration party

Well, he's now officially installed and some of the US community of Jönköping got together at E's to celebrate in style. Being the generous hostess that she is, E even extended the invite to some non-US peeps, like me.

Beautiful baubles........

I recently bought a small batch of these georgeous blown glass hollow beads. I used some for earrings and sold the rest in my Etsy shop. They have been rather popular -after just a week I only have one lot left.

Lucky cats

Just bought these cute little cat beads, which I'm adding to my shop.
