Click to blow it up and make it more reading friendly! It's the Alternative Press piece that is finally in my hot little hands. I'm so, so pleased and (blush) pretty damn proud of the ol' self & the ol' shop. Ye olde shoppe, if you will.

In other news, it's scarcely 2:00, and the pendants are disappearing at an alarming rate as we speak..er..type. So hop over to the shop, and take a gander. If your fave is not around, remember I'll be restocking a bit later on tonight (especially for those of you on the other side of the world!)..maybe 2:00 AM-ish. Okay, my lovely friends are getting here any minute, so I'm going to run around and get ready to be a lovely hostess.

And, hey. Thank you, you guys. I've been feeling the love a whole, whole lot these days. I mean, I feel it all the time, but especially lately. Hearts & acorns and cinnamon cupcakes all around!

Wow! Congrats on the article--how fun and exciting!! :D

Oh, and I just wanted to let you know that I tried my hand at making a little stuffed kitty (christened Miss Phoebe). I blogged about her here: http://elegant-musings.livejournal.com/91826.html (if you're interested... ;).

Thanks for the continued inspiration!!! :)

"...that they have a love of the whimsical [and] of fairy tales. They have an understanding of the sweetness and sadness that are present in every day. There is a story that exists for them to fill in for themselves; my images are just the beginning or the middle or the end."

Perfect. Yup. Totally. *taps fingertip on nose, grins and applauds our little apple*

You are one hard-working superstar! To say that you are inspiring is a bit of an understatement... but I'll say it anyway! Congratulations!

Oh!! What a perfect little slice of the apple they gave their readers!! If I hadn't already found you...I would be rushing to my computer after that article!!
you are truly truly a walking fairytale to me! Such a sweet inspiration!

Your perfect bitter/sweet world seems as if it always existed!! That is what I love most!! So happy to have found you!! Truly!!

I am in Jersey....wondering if you do any of the craft shows in BK? I didn't see you at the Bust show last winter. Did you go? It was sooo packed!! Saw lots of my "online" favs!

Also...wondering...think you'd ever do tee shirts of your girls?

Congrats again!!
Have a fab weekend!!
xoxo Jenny!

I sent you an email with an attachment of a photo I took of a black apple. I hope the attachment didn't scare you off from opening it. I work on an old Mac, I doubt I have any viruses. Cheers, Michelle.

Michelle · October 13, 2006 at 11:32 PM

Congratulations! You deserve it and I wish you a lot of luck with your stuff. i have been eyeing your stuff for forever and I definitely want to get something ASAP. I love the pendants!

Oh yay! You so totally deserve every single piece of praise and then a thousand more.

"An apple a day, makes me happy" I say!

Hugs and Yay!

I've just discovered your blog after following a link from Posie Gets Cozy. I've enjoyed what I've read so far.

The funny thing is, I've had you marked as one of my favorites on Etsy for quite awhile, and here I am now finding your blog!

Becky · October 15, 2006 at 10:25 PM
