I’ve been weighing the pros and cons of both etsy and bigcartel lately; and really think I’m going to go for bigcartel.
do you guys have had any interesting experiences to share?

anyway, since I’m about to become fanny z (pronounce fanny zed) on bigcartel, I’ve been checking quite a lot of bigcartel hosted shops; and eventually fell in love with this one.

spent pretty much all day thinking about being outdoors, and taking polaroid pictures of the surrounding herbs. quite coincidentally, that’s what I did after work.

I just love my camera. and thought I should carry it in my bag all the time.

here is a little note card I’ve had in mind for quite a long time. it reminds me of the empty washing-powder box my mum poked holes in, then feeding them with a shoelace. my job was to tie the knot. definitely a great memory from my childhood. and a great way to learn how to lace shoes.

Rebecca Thuss, who I happened to discover quite a long time ago - many months in fact, is my hero.

I just love this picture. Simply gorgeous. More generally, I must say that I have a weakness for any picture taken by Alicia Bock.
