Explore on Flickr

Since I started using Flickr more frequently, I quite often browse through explore since it always has great pictures. I just found out that my happy girls made this weeks explore! YaY!
That also explains the many views and comments... :)

Guess & Win

If you haven't met the happy girls, you can see a whole pile of them on this picture.
I add these happy girls to every order and I always get lots of compliments on them from my customers. You can use them to add to a key chain, a purse or just hang it wherever it makes you happy. Yesterday I made a lot of happy girls while being on the road on our way to a wedding in Germany.
Can you guess how many happy girls are in this pile?
Leave a number in my blog and win a 'growth'-necklace in the color of your choice (if there's no matching color cottonwaxed cord, we need to agree on the color).
The person who is closest to the number will receive a necklace and a happy girl of course! :) Make sure you'll leave you're e-mail or Etsy-shop name so I can reach you when you win. Good luck! :) In case of a draw, I'll let an innocent hand decide which person will win...

Are you right brained or left brained?

I was visiting RunAliceRun's shop and saw an entry about taking a survey to determine if you are right or left brained. Here are my results:

You Are 20% Left Brained, 80% Right Brained

The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning. Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others. If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic. Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet. The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility. Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way. If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art. Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

I'm sure that my verbal ability is more then 20 percent, some people will confirm that! LOL
What you waiting for? Take the test and tell me what you are! Here's the link:

How I feel right now...

The past week makes me feel like the flower on the right hand side. Need a little break...

Where is ArtMind?

Some time ago I saw a Googlemap in Flickr made by Revontulitikku. She made this map to see where all her passportcovers are in the world. Being a bit freaky about maps and all neat places, I wanted to make a map myself too. How fun that is! It was great seeing all the locations I send my items to. Most of my items went to USA & Canada but a fair amount of them are now also located in Europe. I have had a few customers from Asia and Australia as well.

I love making these! Today, our home looked like a necklacefactory! :)
