Kandyskadoll on Etsy

Kandyskadoll on Etsy sells these beautiful pendants which resemble harlequin masks.





I really like them although they seem so sad....

TickettyBoo on Etsy

What a great shop! All the colours TickettyBoo uses are beautiful, soft and gentle. I like the blues and grays and even the pinks don't offend! (I'm not big on pink.)



The last picture is of a doorstopper. How pretty!

1. Color Addict, 2. All the Colours You Need, 3. Colored Pencils, 4. taking a bubbles bath

When I was at school, I would get a new pack of 36 Colleen pencils every year. I loved those pencils. When you opened the new pack, they were arranged in groups of 6, with the colours beautifully arranged, like a rainbow. I hated giving out my pencils to other people, because they would put them back in the wrong place or cause the cardboard container to bunch up by wedging a pencil in an already full "compartment". To this day, my heart starts beating wildly with "I want-ness" when I see sharp new pencils. I don't like sharpening them, though, I like my pencils to all be the same length!

I haven't been participating in ArtMind's Flickr Favourites game these past couple of weeks, simply because I am on holiday and have lost track of the days. Usually on Wednesdays I remember that I need to post...anyway, if you would like to join in, do so on ArtMind's blog!

Saturday Craft Site - STYROFOAM Crafts

The items we sell on Etsy are made out of Styrofoam. I really enjoy working with it. Styrofoam is best cut with a hot wire, which melts the polystyrene, creating a smooth edge. STYROFOAM Crafts has tons of ideas for crafts using the material. Click on Projects to see what you can make.



Of course you don't have to cut it, you can use the ready made balls and cubes sold in all craft shops.
