The magical number 100...

I did it! I did it! :)
It took me three years, but I finally did it! And the most glorious part of this is that my 100th sale is my first custom order! Yay! :D
Thank you my dear customers, I'm so happy that my creations are loved and cherished not only by me!

My Work Table...

Hello folks! I have almost reached my goal of the year - to have 100 sales (at least)! I have 99 right now. And I'm feeling quite anxious and quite exciting. And in order to celebrate this wonderful upcoming event I decided to create a special lovely gift for a lucky customer who will bring me the sale #100! All I can tell, that it will be a nice little smiling creature handmade by me. I will show some pics of it only after the long waited sale will occur! :)
Wish me some luck! :)

Erinle's Notebook...

The weather was dreadful last week, it didn't rain a lot, but still there was no sun... But I managed to draw a few things for the Erinle's notebook. Below are the results! :)

My Work Table...

October ended well, with two unexpected sales! Mr. Hieronymus Garlic and the Screaming Pancakes are sold and on their way to new home in California, US. Farewell, my dear creations! :)

I will miss you guys! :)

And November also has started wonderfully! With two more sales! :)

Bye-bye! :)

In the last week I created two Christmas zombies and another creature from the Forgotten Forest. One zombie is already available in the store, but the other along with the unknown creature are still works in progress. But I will show them to you till the end of this week.

Bell on his hat rings! :)

The Reading Thursday...

Well, the time for a monthly quote has come. The quote presented below is taken from a wonderful, no, from the AMAZING novel by one of my all time favorite authors - from Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury. If you ever feel lost in life, or are sad with no obvious reason, or simply want to feel truly alive again - read it! You won't regret a bit! :)

Mushrooms of the Forgotten Forest...

As I have promised, today I will tell you more about different kinds of mushrooms that can be encountered in the Forgotten Forest. Till this day I have met and explored four different species, but there are many-many more, I'm sure! :)

The first one is known as the Grumpy Mushroom or Fungus Grunnitus. Grumpy Mushrooms are one of biggest and tallest group of mushrooms in the depths of Forgotten Forest. Usually, they are red and orange, but sometimes you can find even a yellow one! Anyway, you will definitely first hear them, and only then - see them. They are always murmuring something! They are common inhabitants of the forest and are not rare at all.

The second one is the Deadly Mushroom or Fungus Mortus. These pale blue fellows are wicked and very dangerous. Deadly Mushrooms are the biggest and tallest mushrooms in the depths of Forgotten Forest. They are very poisonous and you should definitely avoid meeting them alone. The only creatures that are not afraid of them are the Moss Fairies. Those angry little green beings like to rest on mushrooms' caps. I've met only one so far and observed him from a safe distance. Lucky me! :)

Fungus Mortus

The third one is known as the Crying Mushroom or Fungus Clamantis. Crying Mushrooms also belong to the one of biggest and tallest group of mushrooms in the Forgotten Forest. You may think that this green guy above is smiling, but he only prepares to cry... Why are they sad no one knows, but they definitely like to cry loudly! And usually they cry for hours and hours and hours... Aarrrgh! :)

Fungus Clamantis

The fourth one is a very rare group of mushrooms. This strange fellow is known as the Lunar Mushroom or Fungus Lunam. Its pileus (cap) looks like the Moon's surface. They are not dangerous at all and are very beautiful. Their caps can be pale yellow, light purple, grey and even light turquoise. If you have met one (as I did) - it is a lucky sign! :)

I have also seen some familiar tracks left in the forest... And I'm suspecting that at least two more types of mushroom-like creatures are present in the Forgotten Forest - Zombie Shroomplings and the Vampire Mushrooms. You can see some of their kind below. When I will encounter their relative in this forest - I will post their pictures too! :)

Erinle's Notebook...

Well, here I am again... and of course, it is not Friday, but already Saturday! But as usually life is what happens while you're planning something. Nevertheless, here is the promised story about the mysterious note from the first picture. During the second week of my expedition to the Forgotten Forest, Erinle wake up, went to her kitchen and found a strange piece of paper on her dinner table. She has never seen something like that before. So she took this message and came to my tent in the forest to show me that. Four strange unknown symbols... And even more mysterious letter R stamped onto the wax seal! What a riddle to solve! We decided to find someone, who will help us to decipher and read that note...:)

Four unknown symbols...

And the second picture shows a new drawing from Erinle's notebook. Mushrooms, mushrooms, mushrooms! :)

More mushrooms from the notebook! :)
