Now and way back then

I read this really cool topic on the etsy forum about people showing their crafts how they were back then and right now. Here is mine.

Back then (end of 2005):

And a few weeks ago:

The techniques aren't very complicated but I do feel like I have a feeling for design now which I clearly lacked back then.

Shoe story + Etsy favourites

On Saturday I went shopping with a friend. I bought myself some shoes that were originally priced at 60 euros and were now only 30! They are comfy, with a low heel and good to wear everyday. It's a kind of grey leather with design on it. But... of course there's a but it's never that easy. When I came home I noticed both shoes weren't the same size :( But my mom was so nice to go back to the shop today and exchange them for me which wasn't a problem. The shop is called Il Pattino and located at Scherpenheuvel, a small city know for it's euhm well big church, I don't know the English word. Lots of people go there on a pelgrimage, I go shopping :)

But there are also new etsy favourites!

I noticed this shop in the forum and had to write about it.

Out of the Blues

She designs and carves these stamps. They are sooooo adorable. Also check out the rest of the shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6727254

I also love these charms from Nostalgems

They are in my favourites and if they aren't gone I will buy them in a few days.

Finally

Easter vacation has arrived! And I'm bored already :)

In an hour or so Nele comes to pick me up to do some shopping. I'm going to look for my webshop software too, hope I can find it and if not.. well it's a nice day to shop.

I don't know what happened to my etsy shop but it exploded. In 3 days I went from 13 sales to 21 sales! And of course I love it :)

Yesterday I also got making faces, a book for make up artists by Kevin Aucin. It is a nice book but I still prefer fashion make-up over normal make-up :)

Well it's a short one today but I'm going to have to find something else to entertain me. Take care!
