...and a very good friend.

I'm talking of ~StuartLohe. And the "starving" part is to be taken seriously. There is very little I can actually do, because I'm scraping sents together as well, as many of us do, but perhaps someone needs an early Christmas present, or something very unique for birthday...

You see, she's a witty lil crafts(wo)man, making brass and silver and <insert name of the metal here> brooches and rings and bracelets and earrings etc etc, with ancient Estonian patterns and style.

But let the goods speak for themselves and move your hearts:



I mean, you can order these and pretty much anything in the style that your fantasy comes up with. Go take a peek, talk to her. She won't bite, not hard

And help me spread a word, will you? Help me help her, please

Found that I had 5 dollars on my Paypal account and 1 deviant dollar round here, so I took advantage of the "no shipping fee" (usually shipping to Estonia costs a fortune) and ordered a few from my mile long wishlist:



and since I adore Siobhan's character Bryn (no offence, Cronachan - he had prints available and you had but one - harrass your leannan about that)... well, well -

And something I ain't showing, cause it's a surprise gift to ~StuartLohe.



No time (or energy, actually) for updating, but I wanna prove you I'm still hanging out there, so...

Working. Although last week I spent very much in preparation for our LARP event, along with ~k2rts and ~StuartLohe.
Since more than half of the players backed out for several reasons (more or less good ones), we ended up with 5 and a half (NPC) left, along with 2 GM characters. And you know what - we had the most beautiful, intense, intimate and epic game ever.

It's impossible to describe. Let's just say that the air was very different from our usual. So - no regrets, except the monetary issues (with Stuart having paid the rent bill and me buying all the food and stuffs... no idea how to pay our own bills or live until the next payday...).

Still making jewellery. Still haven't had time to make it to the Loitsukeller.

And atm, down with a cold.... Guess it had to hit sooner or later.

And I'm sorry, but my inbox ran over with deviations and I deleted them all. If there is a work of yours I've missed and you want me to see it (I want to see them), just post here, OK, cause it might take me a while to hop into your galleries. There are so many of them.

Just a short note with great news. I was in the capital (Tallinn) for a few days and I almost accidentally visited one of the oldest and most famous alternative jewellery and esoteric shops, Loitsukeller.

Briefly - after a little conversation with the owner I was offered an opportunity to have my own little board for jewellery. She really loved my things (I had a few with me) and all I have to do now is to put together a selection and take it there. No fee from the shop, what I sell, I sell. So let's hope I sell.

Newest passion - wire wrapping. I'll try and take pictures today.
Busy. Working my ass off and when I'm not at work, I'm either writing for the LARP project or making jewellery.

It has begun. and the merry folk of Deviantwood (including yours truly) begin with a new contest, themed "Guardian animal". Damsels in distress can stop harassing poor badly cut out wolves and go read Twilight Dive back to your roots (or someone else's roots) and think deeper.

News article says it all, the rules and the prize basket.
Any help in promotion is strongly advised Our hostess doesn't have a gazillion of watchers, so let's try and get this a bit bigger. Come on, silent lurkers, I know you are out there. I can smell ya! (You smell like chicken. With cheese.)

*takes out her lantern, lights it and jumps back into her closet*

...aka me.
Working full time now, trying to gather funds to rent a place of my own in a month or two. I've given myself a promise to move out within this year, so - that's how it's going to be. And yeah, living with as much as 2000 EEK left (for those of you who know about EUROs, the balance is something like 1 EURO = 15,64 EEK), but I'll survive and I'll be much happier than I am now, I am certain of that.

The zoo. 18 animals by the last count.
The gerbils: Mulder, Sirius and Mephisto (the boys) living in one cage, Sirra, Gandalf and her 3 babies living in another (the white girl is called Shalimah after ~StuartLohe's tiefling character and because *Siobhan68 told me so ) I'll get a bigger cage from ~Alleria as soon as I get time to pick it up. Which will most likely happen on Monday, since I'm working my ass off tomorrow as well.

The zoo continues with cats:
Iti, 2 years old lady, now with 6 (!!!) babies.
Stella, a year old female, Iti's daughter and babysitter to her siblings.
Hamlet, my starcrossed 4.5 months old boy, Iti's son.

And the puppy, Rommi, eating everything that isn't fighting back too much. Size doesn't matter.
To general curiousity - which of these animals will join me in my new place - my gerbils, and my kitten.

Sowwy, no time for writing. Spare time goes for cleaning, looking after my zoo, writing LARP material etc. I'm hoping things will settle down a little once I'm on my own.
But hey, at least I made a pretty picture -

The feature game

Stolen from *LunaticStar.

The rules:

1- Be one of the first 14 people commenting on this journal entry, and I will add you to the Promotional List
2- For each of those 14 people I will put their avatar and three deviations I like from their gallery on the list.
3- If I feature you, you'll have to do the same in your journal, putting me on the first place, completing this way the list with 15 people. (OK, You don't HAVE to, if you really don't want or don't have the time, but it would be fun, methinks )

So, here it goes:
