I would love to share new shop on Etsy: EuropeForCharity

This shop contains items donated by artists and crafters from the European Street Team on Etsy for humanitarian relief. Right now Pakistan is fighting with a such crisis. All the money that is collected this time will go to the flood victims in Pakistan.

The person behind the shop is Baa from Baahar. She managed to set up the shop and reach a lot of people to be donor. There are more than 100 items in the shop with a few days. There is magnificent choice of various items in the shop and not only that: you're helping out the Pakistani by buying from the shop!

Thank you Baa for this necessary project!

unloved

Today is fantastic Monday's day! I have won this lovely handmade journal from Renate - Kreativling. I can't believe it! Renate named this journal "Unloved", because nobody wanted it. I really don't know why. Look! It is beautiful, unique, handmade item!

I have never won something before in my life. Many thanks for Renate, you did my day today :) I will use this journal for my beadwork scetches. I love it so much and can't wait its arrival.

organize your knittings and crochetings

Many thanks to Margit K. :) She has given me a reference to fantastic source: Ravelry.com. It's an ideal place for those who likes to knit or crochet. What there is remarkable? When I something knit, necessarily I do calculations, sketches, I write down the name and a thickness of a yarn, colour number (on a case if the yarn will not suffice), the name of schemes and sources. In the course of work any cunnings are born, which should be written down to take advantage of them in the future. All these notes exist at my house on the torn off leaflets, in any writing-books and on labels from a yarn which are constantly lost. And now I know that there is a useful site and all notes can be stored in one place :)

The personal page on Ravelry shares on tabs: projects (current projects - what you knit, what yarn use, what scheme, how many it is already executed and so forth, + the finished projects), something of warehouse type (it is possible to note available yarns and needles-hooks at your home), plans (what you are going to knit in the future, what date to whom, from what yarn and so forth), library (your personal schemes and books) and much more. Besides it it is possible to talk with other peoples in forums, to be connected to various groups, to exchange experience. All who like to knit or crochet, I invite to join and find me on the great source of Ravelry :)

love treasuries, golden ones

Secret Santa, 2

It was happened at last year, in 2009 December. I am a proud member of THE EUROPEAN STREET TEAM on Etsy and we had playing a funny game "Secret Santa". The idea behind the Secret Santa is that you make something for a teammember and also receive a gift yourself.

It was a difficult test to make a Christmas gift to the person with whom you are not familiar. Nicole have a great shop on Etsy with handmade soaps - UltimateOrganicSoap. In Nicole's questionnaire I got know that she very much likes to read. So I have decided to present bookmarks to her. I was very much worried, whether my gift will be pleasant to her. And here a response Nicole in her blog.

Much appreication to Mitsy ArtMind - her good job done with the Secret Santa :)

happy new year 2010!

To all my readers and friends - I wish you a happy new year! All dreams will come true. We will meet next year :)

Pssst! I'm Secret Santa :) The Secret Santa is a game played by the European Streetteam on Etsy. The idea behind the Secret Santa is that you make something for a teammember and you also receive a gift yourself. It is great fun guessing who's your Secret Santa too. There are 101 Secret Santas in our team! :)

That's not yet all. Each teammember was filled a quiestionnaire for the best matching of Santas. So every friday you'll find a post about Secret Santa in the ArtMind's blog. It's very funny! :)
