Wet season...monsoon maybe?

Hygrocybe conica, aka blackening waxcap

 It's been raining A LOT lately...and I mean A LOT...the garden turned into a paddyfield...and we're getting strange mushrooms I had never seen before...

 Even the cats were intrigued.

Pepita needed to investigate.

It stinks.

I am not even getting near it.

Friday favorites

A quirky sea monster print by Dave Pollot on Etsy. I love this trend of adding fun details to old boring paintings.

An ultra cute cat wearing glasses sweater by Louche. This is the perfect shade of red too..

An incredible mushroom necklace by PetitPlat. It is made of polymer clay.

A peacock skirt by StarWear on Etsy. It is made with an upcycled vintage tapestry. Check the shop, it is filled with wonders like this one. I want the pink and blue kitten one too ;)

And those Crocs flats. Oh those flats! They're part of  a limited series designed by Mondo Guerra.
Kadee Mondo GEO flats by Crocs.

Wednesday favorites 4

Another shirt I love on Dawanda. The whole shop, THOKKTHOKK ORGANIC CLOTHING,
 is super too...they also have shirts for males (gift ideas...). I like the stripes and color combo of this one. Added to my wishlist!

A cute poodle brooch. I adore the retro feel of this one. It is from Ginnyandjudes on Etsy. I can picture it on my winter coat...

Let's get in the mood for Christmas with those irresistible holly cookie earrings by PetitPlat. If you don't know her work yet (you must have been living in a cave) check her shop right now! She is the queen of food miniatures!

The mushroom furniture set in Animal Crossing New Leaf. I got that Nintendo game for my birthday back in June and I am addicted. If you're not familiar with the game, in short, you're the mayor of a cute little town and you can buy/collect (among zillions of other things) furniture sets to put in your house. The sets change with season and holidays. This is the fall set. I was completely stoked when I found my first mushroom piece!

I have told you already about my Mothman obsession here and now MaidenVoyageClothing, who made my cool cryptozoology shirt, is also making patches. This one is my fav of course, but I like the whole set too. I might need them sooner or later. Have no idea what to sew them on yet though.

A bunny...I have a slight obsession with bunnies too. OK, to be exact this is a baby hare made by TheLeveretsNest. They make the cutest things...and you always need a bunny baby hare. 

Saturday shopping

This week I have re-stocked! My mushroom necklace had been sold out for a long time as I couldn't find more identical bezels to make them. I simply decided to make them with a different bezel, and they're pretty too ;)
Oddly, though they're my best seller everywhere , I never sold a single one on Etsy...though it's my most hearted item ever!

Moss

A few week ago after seeing several cute terrariums, I thought it'd be fun to be able to wear cute little ones too.
My first attempts were not so succesful...as I tried to use real moss from the garden. The design looked great, but the smell...OUCH, the smell... Moss by itself has a nice earthy smell...but combined with my glue, the stench was a bit overpowering...so much so infact, that I couldn't stay in the same room LOL. Those were quickly discarded and I found lovely odorless synthetic moss, chih will also last a lot longer and don't need watering ;)

Here are a few of my brand new "moss line" pieces.

More pieces will follow.

Items are available in my Etsy shop and Dawanda shop.
