Great tips for shopping based on zero waste concept

Hi There..... Do you feel safe?

I have to say..... I don't feel that safe..... Not as much as I used too..... Before this crazy virus came into our lives..... Who knew that it would have such an impact on our lives 😟

Things were getting brighter here in Belgium..... But in the last few days, the number of infected people has been going up again..... I really don't want to have to go in lockdown again..... Some people don't seem to take the rules serious and I really don't get that..... Maybe it's me that's crazy but as Kevin Spacey said 'Sometimes it's the crazy people who turn out to be not so crazy' 😁

Although they did tweak the rules somewhat over here..... You now have to wear your mask in every shop, mall, supermarket, musea, library,..... Practically everywhere inside..... So I was pretty stoked to receive this gorgeous mask from MagicDesignbyElyssa 😄


Pretty fashionable right..... Aha you are jealous now, aren't you..... I bet you would like to know all about this shop..... No worries, I am not gonna keep it to myself 😃


Here's a side view from the mask..... It feels really comfortable and it even comes with an activated carbon filter..... And I think it's so very pretty..... If I have to wear a mask I would rather have one like this than a plain and boring white mask..... Although not the best idea if I would want to rob a store maybe..... They might recognize my mask in an instant 😎

Elyssa's Etsy shop is built on zero waste concept..... Sounds great right..... But what does it mean..... This is what Wikipedia says about it..... The conservation of all resources by means of responsible production, consumption, reuse, and recovery of all products, packaging, and materials, without burning them, and without discharges to land, water, or air that threaten the environment or human health..... I know you might have to read it twice to fully understand..... But I think that's quite cool and really admirable 😍

They hand create their items custom made..... they have designer printed T-shirts, hoodies, mugs, face mask and all kinds of other things..... Let me show you a selection of some of the things you can find in her shop 😄

Sunglasses 100% UVA and UVB protection


Fully Printed Phone Case for iPone models


Washable Kids Face mask with filter pocket


Deckchair Sling, sun lounge chair, picnic


Hoodie Dress, Jumper Dress, Relaxed Fit


Washable Face Mask with Activated Carbon Filter


Neck Gaiter


Toddler Tee, T-shirt Big Brother


Quarantaine Magic Mok Gift


You know..... It may come as a surprise to you but Elyssa knows things about you..... I am not joking..... She really does..... She knows that you are unique..... And she wants to inspire your life with the magic designs printed especially for you 😍

By the way if you would like to more about her masks..... Just read her blog post about it

Hope you like my blog post.....Until next time.....Have a great day

Where to find some cool handmade sunglasses for this summer

Hi There..... Do you like to wear sunglasses?

I actually can hardly do without when I am driving..... Although I don't really wear them that much otherwise 😊

But tell me..... Did you know that today is National Sunglasses Day..... I didn't know either.....  Haha..... I just saw it on my special calendar 😀

Of course..... You want to know where this is coming from..... Well, at least I do..... So if you don't..... You are out of luck..... I am gonna tell you anyhow 😋

It's about celebrating the importance of wearing ultraviolet protective Sunwear and eyewear..... This celebration dates as far back as the 14th century..... In China judges used eyewear made of smoke-colored quartz to mask their emotions..... If you want to know more about this day you can read about it here..... https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/sunglasses-day/

Eyes are indeed a huge tell..... But I think they had better wear a mask then..... Your whole face can tell others how you are feeling if you ask me 😁

I did read there also that it's actually more important to wear sunglasses than we think..... It seems that these UV rays can inflict serious damage to your vision..... I think it's high time to buy me some better sunglasses...... I do have a pair lying around here..... But they are ancient..... I tried them on again last week but it makes me look like a piece of antique 😂

Well, I guess you know me..... And I wouldn't be me if I wasn't gonna share some of my finds of handmade sunglasses on Etsy with you 😍

Where can I find some cool handmade pants for this summer?

Hi There..... How are things going over there?

Here in Belgium, we are taking baby steps to a new way of living with a gradual exit strategy..... We have been in lockdown for quite a while now..... I couldn't even remember how long it was..... So I looked it up and it seems that our lockdown started on the 18th of March..... But we have always been allowed to go outside still to do our groceries..... Or for taking walks, a run or other sports in the parc keeping the 1.5m distance in mind of course 😷

So far only the grocery shops, fabric shops, do-it-yourself, and garden shops were open for business..... Starting Monday all the other shops will be opening their doors again..... But I am not crazy enough to go shopping already..... A little crazy maybe but not that crazy 😂

It feels kinda weird though..... When someone in the supermarket wants to be in the same aisle as you..... They look at you in a way as if you could be their killer..... I am not sure yet if I like it..... In a way, it is pretty badass having people be scared of you..... Renata the Ripper..... Doesn't sound that bad 😁

But then again, who is the scaredy-cat..... Me, I suppose..... I am the one staying away from the brave shoppers next week 😅😂

Although I probably won't be the only one..... Some people will agree that it's just common sense.....That's why I thought I would bring the stores to you other scaredy cats..... And show you a few handmade summer trousers from my beloved Etsy site 😄

Where can I find some fun Valentines Day Gifts?

Hi There.....Do you celebrate Valentine?

Maybe you do or maybe you don't.....Or maybe you hate all the hassle around it.....Or who knows you might be thinking.....Who the ..... is Valentine 😉

Or should I say Valentinus.....It seems to have been a common name in ancient Roman times. As far as history is concerned there seem to be numerous Saints and various stories connected to this date.

There have been a lot of debates on 2 holy martyrs of the same name.....Priest Valentine of Rome and Bishop Valentine of Terni......Both dating from about the 3th century.

Some say they are 2 separate persons.....Others say there was only one of them.....And then some believe they are one and the same person.

The only thing that is certain from traditions is that Valentino was a good man that blessed young couples and performed miracles of love.

I actually was quite surprised to see that the celebration of this day dates so far back 😦

I found that the oldest "Valentine" that was found dates from the 15th century and was written by a man named Charles duke of Orléans written to his wife.....He wrote "Je suis desja d'amour tanné - Ma tres doulce Valentinée".....Translated that means..... I am already sick of love - My very gentle Valentine.

A bit cheesy if you ask me haha.....But then again maybe that's what it is all about 😋

So like it or not this is my Valentine selection for you today

Where to find the best Quilt Kits?

Hi There.....Do you like Quilts?

Did you know that today is Visit your Local Quilt Shop Day?

Me neither but I do like to browse through the calendar to see what kind of special day today could be 😊

It seems that Quilt shops aren't getting the attention they deserve. The purpose of this 'Visit your local Quilt shop day' is to give them the recognition they deserve. And to widen the scope Fabric shops of any kind can be part of it too.

I suppose most of you know what a quilt is but for those who don't.....Here is part of the description that I found on Wikipedia 

Quilts are textiles with multiple layers that are traditionally made up of three layers of fiber. Mostly they make a patchwork from smaller pieces of fabric, and the pattern and color of these pieces will be important to the design. They usually are quite light with little to no filling which makes them perfect as a blanket for spring or summer.

I have seen a lot of them on hobby fairs and I am always in admiration of the amount of work that goes into making such a quilt 😍

They have been introduced in Europe by the Crusaders in the 12th century as a quilted garment worn under their armor. One of the earliest existing works is the Tristan Quilt that was made around 1360 in Sicily.

They seem very popular in the United States where salvaging small scraps of fabric was a part of life for all households. It was often a communal activity, involving all the women and girls in a family or in a larger community.....But not only women would take part because there are also many historical examples of men participating in these quilt traditions.

Yes, girls don't be surprised.....But I know a few men who have creative hands 😉

So how about I give you some inspiration to get quilting yourself and show you some of the materials you can find on Etsy 😋
