What are GOOBLIES?

LaPomme: gooblies are a warm fuzzy feeling that if left unattended can lead to uncontrolled shopping.
Femputer likes LaPomme's definition of gooblies.
Missbeheaven is too tired to think, but agrees with LaPomme and thinks this is a pretty list.
Gooblies make Ingermaaike go all sweet and goey inside.
HeliS thinks it means 'goodbies' to her money and she loves little Rosalita. It gooblies her a lot! (Maybe 'goobling' is a verb?)
EmmaPardos loves this colorcombination. Maybe it's a color?
Dlkdesigns thinks it has something to do with 'adoration'
MagicIsland wants to know the meaning too...
MundoGuminola believes it has something to do with falling in love.
StaroftheEast thinks that gooblies make your heart go faster and makes you get all warm inside. Joombeam thinks it has something to do with re-uniting.
SingingSilverSparrow is the 'GOOBLIES'-wordcreator.
She checked and double checked the ancient dictionary covered in dust and came up with the following: It's of a Greek descent, in the time of Cholera, where love and excitement come together in your stomach and cause baby bubbles full of 'whoo hoo' to explode in your stomach. This is the formal definition...
I'm certain SingingSilverSparrow is liking a lot of other choices in this list... :)
Kreativlink has found a meaning in the urban dictionary I don't think many people relate gooblies with this definition though...
XbyLeinaNeima is waiting for 'gooblies' to appear!
RunAliceRun love's SingingSilverSparrow's definition.
DearDodo hopes the squid will make make nice baby gooblies.
Glasfaden thinks that gooblies are sweet, cute, delicate and adorable.
Orangeyblossoms is about to get gooblies from the red apples...
Panyzsuzsi thinks gooblies are cuties.
Luckyduckdesigns likes to be among the gooblies.
Susarto fell in love with the word gooblies.
Bamboovillagepress wants to gobble up on every item in this list and loves the ridiculous cute pig.
Lusitania gets gooblies from Tito.
Twolefthands uses the word 'gooblies' everyday and loves to tease her grandchildren with pinching them gooblies.
4thGenFiberArt's family members often say 'gime oodles' which does sound alike, but I think they want something else...
MonicaJ is having difficulties with being away from all her treasury friends - she's missing all the gooblies that she usually gets when she is looking at and making them...
Paperflowergirl nearly missed seeing this gooblies-treasury
annarubyking has a real clever explanation. She believes it's a medical term from the 1800's. It used to be an ailment pertaining to nodulus in the larynx that become inflamed (as the color of this list shows) and making it difficult to speak, leaving the patient onl be able to say things like 'gooble' and 'beeblee' and 'ughl'

Frontpage by Entropia

Entropia made this gorgeous burgundy treasury and it made the frontpage! My burgundy felted necklace was very happy to be in there. Actually, Entropia has another shop which is called Lusitania.
Everytime I see those names on the treasury, I just need to take a look because they are always so beautiful!
Please, do have a look at her shops, she does great work!

A special day today?


birth·day
1. the anniversary of a birth.
2. the day of a person's birth.
3. a day marking or commemorating the origin, founding, or beginning of something.
4. the festivities or celebration marking such a day or anniversary.



Everyone is having one every year so what's the big deal?
If you purchase something from my shop today AND leave a comment in my blog, you will receive a little present!

Also wanted to share this poem on my birthday... since I love it!

When I am an old woman I shall wear purple
with a red hat which doesn't go, and doesn't suit me,
and I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
and satin sandals, and say we've no money for butter,

I shall sit down on the pavement when I'm tired
and gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
and run my stick along the public railings
and make up for the sobriety of my youth

I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
and pick the flowers in other people's gardens
and learn to spit

You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
and eat three pounds of sausages at a go
or only bread and pickle for a week
and hoard pens and pencils and beermats and things in boxes

But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
and pay our rent and not swear in the street
and set a good example for the children

We must have friends to dinner and read the papers
but maybe I ought to practice a little now?
so people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
when suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.

Jenny Joseph 1932..."Warning"

A little thank you to my customers...

Tonight while I was felting on Christmas custom orders, it crossed my mind that many of my customers will give their purchases from my shop away as a X-maspresent.
I certainly hope they will turn a smile on the face of the receiver.
I wanted to say thank you for loving, supporting and sharing my work and giving joy to others! It makes me *glow*... which is appropiate this time of year ;)

Secret Santa

Meghan from the European Streetteam organised a secret santa. If you wanted to participate, you had to sign up and fill out a questionnaire. She paired up all the participants and send us a convo to who we had to send our secret santa gift to. In the convo there were details about what the person liked or not. I have had so much fun making it - especially because the person I'm sending it too is also a lovely and sweet personality. I hope she'll be happy with it! Happy holidays to everyone!
