Gin in Teacups fair tomorrow! (and a discount coupon)

If you happen to be in Glasgow area tomorrow, there's no excuse to miss the wonderful fair just in the city centre - it's called Gin in Teacups and takes place in Chambre 69 on Nelson Mandela Square.

And guess what... I'll be there!

With all my freshly made jewellery and accessories, with hugs for free and best wishes to you all <3

"Think camden lock in a punked up bygone era, a mini scuzzy berlin tascheles, a parisian vintage flea market, Gin offers the best of Glagows, arts/crafts/fashion and more vintage regalia than you can shake a stick at. 25 stalls from independent sellers offering a diverse range of clothing, records, cakes, gifts, jewellery,hand printed t-shirts, a psychedlic shopping experience for those craving 'not on the high street' style.

The day is accompanied by a blend of vintage inspired garage, punk and psyched out tunes from guest Djs and a live performer each time, from hip hop dancers, to songwriters, from comedians to harmonica players, a carnival of the best underground talent Glasgow has to offer."

Pierrot Lunaire, Op. 21

She has arrived on Monday, and I'm SO in love with her.
She received a name after Arnold Schönberg's melodrama, Pierrot Lunaire, Op. 21, as I love the piece and I love the story it tells.

I adore her chubby body and the way she poses.

I just can't wait to have her painted and ready!

Granny Would Be Proud fair in Glasgow.

So, I'm finally in Glasgow, and I would like to invite all of you who live nearby to visit me on Granny Would Be Proud fair, that will take place in Hillhead Bookclub on 17 Vinicombe Street, this Sunday (13th November) from 12 - 5 pm.

I'll be there selling my jewellery and accessories (bookmarks, keychains etc), both for guys and gals ^-^

Get ready for Christmas - I'll gladly help you to pick the best gifs for your friends and family!

leaving feeling.

Next week, by this time, I'm going to be in Glasgow, Scotland, setting off with the new chapter of my funny life.
I've been waiting for so long for that moment to arrive - first I've been putting my money off, then I had that unfortunate accident, and I had to recover for long, postponing the whole thing for over two months that seemed like ages.

And now, that it's finally that close and I should be all happy, I actually feel a bit sad, and there's a number of wonderful people to blame for that. I hope I see them again soon.



I've set off with packing- it's so hard to decide what to take, and what to leave behind. I wish I actually could be as consistent in my plans to reduce my belongings as Dave from The 100 Thing Challenge, but that's just not happening (although I did reduce them significantly).
Apart from basic things like clothes etc, there are also books &dolls to take, all the things I use to create my jewellery, I'd love to take at least one film camera with me as well... It all gives me a headache when I think about it...

For those of you who live in (or are just passing through) Glasgow, you can meet me pretty soon during wonderful craft & fashion events, that I'm happy to take part in. I'll write about the dates and places in the next post. ♥

Pixies gonna pix.

Aviator.

Is he dreaming about the career of an aviator... or does he just have his head in the clouds?

Confitures! ♥

I've just received a wonderful surprise gift from France, from my dear friend, Justyna, who has mastered the art of making exquisite confitures (not even mentioning other marvels she does in the kitchen).
Unfortunately, one jar, containing the confiture of apricots with lavernder (oh-my-god!) didn't survive the journey - risking my own life I had to try it though (being careful not to eat any glass) - it was BEYOND AWESOME!
Enclosed was one of my favourite books of all times - "Un homme qui dort" by Georges Perec - finally I'll have the opportunity to read it in original language.

This really made my day, and was a beautiful week overture.
Thank you dear! ♥

Baronesse.

I got tempted by stunning repaints of Monster High dolls I saw recently and got myself two of them, and I already want more I must admit. I adore their gentle and beautifully shaped bodies and surprisingly interesting face molds (once you wash off that awful slutty decal faces they were given by Mattel), different for every doll.

Here's my Baronesse, waiting for a new face and customisation.
