A couple of summers ago, coming home from class, I took the subway with a friend and I told her I was trying to start a blog... then I also told her how time consuming and addicting it had become, and that I was wondering if it was something worth doing... she laughed and asked me to let her know when I was done and give her the"link" so she could read it. Then she left and I kept thinking...why? why should I do this ?

Technology has taken us to a new level and we are now, able to "publish ourselves"! PUBLISH OURSELVES however we want to; if you want to be yourself, transparent and out in the open, or even if you want to pretend to be someone else... YOU CAN! Now you can blog and share your thoughts and experiences with people without having them "altered" by the editors, or "chosen" because of how cool or marketable they are...

This space is for us to share; zaidibirindilindilandia-my own little world, my ingenious- and your thoughts!

welcome, and thank you!

italianisims

I recieved my first order FROM italy today!
It felt amazing to know that the news are being spread- INTERNATIONALLY!

Its the first time I deal with anything from the sort but quite exciting. HONESTLY, I had no idea it would be so complicated. Thank GOD I had a very patient and collaborative customer who helped me figure things out.

So, on ETSY you have several payment options of which the most common are PAYPAL, and OTHER. Pay Pal is confusing, its supposed to allow you to pay online with credit cards even if you do not have a PAYPAL account, but none of my previous customers have been able to do it so I've had them send me a personal money order. THING IS that in ITALY things work differently ( and I say this with attitude)!

I had to create a"POSTE PAY" account AT THE ITALIAN post offices so that i have a re-chargeable card in which anyone(in ITALY ) can deposit money and i can use it just like an atm(debit card)=convenient... NOW WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF EUROPE?

ja... one day hopefully!
WELL... i packed the magical ITEMS- and off they went to PESCARA. 3 EARRINGS: cuorincincini, fiorincincina, and juana pepa...

I cannot believe shipping a small package within Italy is so expensive- I MEAN- it STARTS at €6,00! what is good though is that for about one euro more- you can make it NEXT DAY!!!!YAAYYYYAYY!!!

she was HAPPY and s was I... to my surprise- I GOT A SECOND ORDER!

huggs to all... expect more
