Placing my items at Dawanda.com and I-craft.ca

Although i am pretty happy with how things are going on my Etsy shop,i decided to give it a try on two other Etsy alike sites.I was registered at this sites several months ago but never had the time to fully organize them.Dawanda.com is a site to sell your crafted items .Mostly European buyers are visiting it.There aren't so many shops like Etsy but it's pretty well made and you can more easily been discovered there.My other shop is at icraft.ca which is located in Canada.It doesn't work like Etsy,here you pay a monthly payment according to the quantity of items you are posted.We'll see how it works!!

Coming back from summer vacations.....


This is the famous "liston".Its located in the city of Corfu.Long time ago,only the rich and famous were allowed to sit for a coffee.There were a list of names that only they could sit there.That's why it is called "Liston"

Just me and my two children

Back to real life once more.Although this is happening every year ,i can't get used to the idea that i must wait a hole year to leave the city for a month.This year me and my husband took our two children and went to the island where i came from.Corfu.It was really relaxing although my second child ,who is 4 months old,has a lot of needs and demands my fully attention .At least i cleared my head from trying to find new designs for my shop and organizing it.My only concern ,besides my children ,was what time i will take my towel and my sunblock and head to the beach.I really love the beach of my village.A very long sandy beach with cedars on to provide you the necessary shadow.On my return to Athens,i came up with lots of new designs to knit.They will be occasionally posted .I also tried a recipe in Corfu that its great and very very hot.It is called Burdeto and I will post it for sure .Here are some pics i took during holidays.
