Title: My Artwork for your Chocolate -- Brag started on page 6!adopts on last page
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 16, 2012, 04:52:48 AM
this is no joke! XD

My boyfriend loves chocolate, so i try to get chocolate from different countries to suprise him at christmas. ;)

Would you mind sending me some of the best/interesting/funniest/... chocolate to represent your country?
In exchange, i offer Artwork. traditional with watercolors or digital, ether would be send to you.
you can ask for every kind of character, aslong as it fits to the forum-guidelines.

i am also willing to give some of the madeline stuff out early or make custom noticebooks. ;)

soo, here are the examples!

this is what your picture would look like, i would use this paper and a pen or pencil acording to your wishes.






please help me with this project!!
i can´t put this into my signature, because he often looks over my shoulder when i am on here. he would get a clue from the signature, but not read a thread. XD

Besides chocolate, he really likes coffee and caramell. He tries to avoid bitter chocolate, tought. ( he just mentioned he doesn´t like coffee-flavor in anthing else but coffee!! O:O)
Chocolatery baked goods as cookies are great too!
he is often represented by a crab, but chocolate crabs are hard to come by, right?

With warm and best regards,
Emuel

This is such a cute idea! Would you be interested in chocolate from different parts of the US? In Colorado, we have The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Co that makes amazing chocolate... And most states will have chocolate with state flags, photos, etc. in their state gift shops.
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 16, 2012, 05:12:10 AM
YES! totally!!  *squee*
but i prefer good chocolate over one with pictures on it with lesser quality. XD
a little postcard from your state and maybe a short note(like you discribed it here) on it would be awesome! He never has contacts outside of germany, so i guess he would love it! :D
would you be in?
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Ardid on November 16, 2012, 05:25:01 AM
I might look for Spanish chocolate... I don't eat it but my bf is expert in chocolate and its brands  :silly: BTW your work is lovely! That custom notebook is really nice  :heart:

This weekend (probably tomorrow) we have to go shopping so let me know if you'd be interested  ;)
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Archer on November 16, 2012, 05:25:49 AM
Hi, i can get you some from the UK :) We have some little chocolate shops in my city that do their own chocolates ^_^ I'd love to be able to help out, plus we have Cadbury's chocolate which is epic stuff lol.
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 16, 2012, 05:46:40 AM
Ardid:
YAY! that would be cool! i´ll be totally interested! thank you for the compliment, in what for the trade would you be interested? The notebooks take quite some time and i can just work on them on two days in the university.(still have to bind some books for my familys presents too XD )
 but feel free to pm me with what you like and i´ll see what i can do! ^^

archer:
ohh, yes! please!I had cadbury once, it´s so great!
and shops that make thier own chocolate are even better! O-O  In what would you be interested for a trade?



everyone, would you mind adding a little note or postcard for him? ^^
i´ll add a list to the main post now. ^^

oh, nearly forgot:
iadded aquarellstuff, but much of it looks messy because its from my sketchbook, a comission would be clean and on nice paper like the last illustrations of madeline!

Post by: Malancaiwen on November 16, 2012, 05:50:14 AM
Chocolate and China don't mix well! But if you want some weird stuff just let me know! We have some "ancient chinese money" shaped chocolates as well as some national brands that mix chocolate with red beans, tea, ...
Drop me a PM if you'd like to try :3
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 16, 2012, 06:07:48 AM
that sounds splendid! he loves red bean paste and asian food too! :D send you a PM!


don´t forget to tell me what i can do for you! ;) i have two free days because of the "design qualifying examination" for the new students, so i could get some of your artwork pretty fast. ;)

I could get you Swedish chocolate, if that's interesting enough. :)

Oooh nice, I've got a sweet shop near me that specialises in 'tradtional' British sweets and chocolate so I'll take a look. :D

Let's see... Griffin, Uninu, hilamb, Goldilocks are from/in Finland I think. (OMG, I feel like a stalker...) I can get some Fazer chocolates and maybe some other Finnish stuff over here, if you can't get a hold of a Finnish person. X)
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Galactica on November 16, 2012, 09:49:45 AM
Oh- what a fun idea!

There is a actually a quite famous local hand-made chocolate shop in Seattle (well two really but I am thinking of Theo's chocolate which is the best!) - they ave all kinds of crazy flavors-  so maybe you could give me an idea of what you would be interested in :D

They have a website...

Post by: sugar_apple on November 16, 2012, 03:35:42 PM
Hiya! Here's a Finn that would be interested in participating in this crime trade :D
If sirithfin is getting some Fazer chocolates, I could pick up something else (say, if he wants to try something seriously bizarre, then salted licorice chocolate is a definite must xD)
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Archer on November 16, 2012, 04:48:00 PM
Glad i'll be able to help :) Already know what i'm going to pick up for you lol. Do you want some sweets as well or just chocolate??? Think i'm goign to have some fun with this lol.

As for the art, would you like us to PM you when we have an idea???
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 16, 2012, 11:59:18 PM
mwahaha, i feel like an undercover agent, sitting next to him and conspiring with you. XD he has to work on his physic-universitystuff.
hrhrrr!

sugar apple, that would be awesome! he is not a fan of liquiroice, but i think it sounds cool. thank you for helping out too!


archer:
 XD well, he likes peanut butter, marchmellows, caramell, crokant (sp?) uhh, coffee, wine gums (not sour/unsalted), fudges, raisins, nuts,...
he loves watermelons! XD and cute food with faces.
and recently he eats these little waffle cookies, dipped in chocolate, do you know what i mean?
he often gets representet as a little crab, so if you come by something like that, feel free to include it. ^^ 
the persona i made him is a chocolate colored gal with black hair and a little crab as a symbol and his name is "chocolate warning" . i try to post pictures of him later!

yes! please pm me your ideas and sheets if you have some, so i could keep track of them a lot easier. ^^

completing the list in a  second!

oh, and maybe i have to mention that his birthday is on the 26th of december. thats the first day after christmas when i´ll be seeing him, so his christmas presents are also birthday presents too. ;)
so, if you find something b-day related, it would fit for the extras too, he will turn 25 ^^
(these are just ideas, no must)


here, i just redid the image of his persona. a bit dark with the brown body and blakish-brown hair, but anyway. ^^ the crab has a liitle tophat too XD

I could totally hook you up with some chocolate from Australia, we have some pretty original stuff over here, and I can get my hands on some New Zealand choccie as well. Let me know if you are still looking for some, more than happy to help out in exchange for some of your gorgeous artwork! I just love your style :)
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: InkyMilk on November 17, 2012, 01:34:48 AM
If you're still interested in chocolate from the US, here in California we're pretty much the home to the all-American made chocolate brand of Ghirardelli :) I don't know how easy it is to find elsewhere, but as it originated here in CA just thought I'd offer to see if you're interested. There's all kinds of flavors and fillings, especially around the holidays  ^.^
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Ardid on November 17, 2012, 01:41:57 AM
Great!  :accomplished: Yesterday I asked my bf and he told me that here in Spain we have a very traditional brand from the XIX; they stop producing after the Civil War but when the market recovered they started producing again with the same old recipe. He says that's pretty good, so probably today I'll be able to get you some  :happy:

Also, here in Spain we have something very similar to the chocolate M&M, it's called Lacasitos. I personally prefer them to the international brand, I wonder if you'd be interested as well  :what:
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 17, 2012, 01:58:53 AM
wow, already 10 participants! i´ll have a nice drawing weekend, whee!! >u<
don´t miss to send me your wishes for your artwork!

fingerpaints, australia and even new zealand sound gorgerous! (they don´t have anything LOTR-related chocolate, do they? LOL )
thank you for the complimetn, do i get a chance to draw your persona? i love the design! :D

Inky milk, yes, please!
and if they have some sort of card, could you write a note about how special the brand is? i think its interesting and good to know! ^^


Ardid, lacasitos sound great! we both love M&Ms, so that would fit great. XD  the traditional brand is great too, please give best regards to your BF for helping out! :D


everyone, please feel encoraged to add a postcard/a little note about the chocolate, they seem to have interesting backstories. ^^ if not maybe just something like "merry christmas/happy birthday" from where or in your language?

allright, i start with the first Artworks! everyone, would it be okay to post them here to see for the others too? ^^
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Ardid on November 17, 2012, 02:55:46 AM
Perfect!  :good: I'd get some Lacasitos too, and I'll look for something more that might be traditional here; I'd just discovered that the turrón is from Spain! You might know it, it's a type of candy traditionally eaten at Christmas in Spain, I think it's called nougat candy in other countries but I think that they are variants. All the supermarkets are flooded with turrón yet and there are some very traditional brands that make it :)

I'd be glad to see your artwork here to get ideas, I don't want to ask for too much! (I'm an artist too so I know how much time & effort it can take) :art:
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 17, 2012, 07:20:29 AM
oh, ardid, turrón sound delicious, he likes nougat too!
well, i don´t hink you can ask for to much, just shoot me a pm!  i just have two requests right nor, one (sirithfins) is finished, but i have to wait until i could take a picture, because it is traditional. and the other hast to come back to me about details. 

so girls (and boys?) just drop me a pm! if there is anything, i still can ask you about it. ^^
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: fingerpaints on November 17, 2012, 11:01:37 PM
Awesome :) I am not too sure about LOTR choccie, coming up to Christmas, I may be able to find something though, sometimes they release little box sets and such for different movie / character related stuff like that with choccie.

And yes, you will get a chance to draw my persona if I can find you something that the partner would like ;)

I will PM you later with some details of what I can get my hands on that may be of interest to you, I will have to have a run through the shops to see what we do have on offer at the moment so it won't be for a few days at this point.
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: True on November 17, 2012, 11:08:29 PM
well I know the US isnt the most well known for its chocolate xD but I could grab some local Cherry chocolate if he might like that kinda things (i live in the cherry capital)  xD so you can pretty much find literally anything flavored like cherry. the chocolate is actually pretty good and made on the spot at this little fudge shop haha.

Post by: Sea_Breeze on November 18, 2012, 12:39:36 AM
I'd be happy to help out on the NZ chocolate front, I bought a bit for the Christmas swap but I' decided not to participate in it. Does he like peanut butter? We have this AMAZING new peanut butter flavoured one, I've probably eaten about 6 big blocks of it since it was released :blush: its delicious, there's also a new white chocolate & raspberry flavour its a tad sweet but pretty scrummy too.
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: AnnaPommes on November 18, 2012, 12:46:51 PM
NOES!
PLEASE!
he just said he doesn´t like coffee in chocolate!! >o>
have to got back to work, but needed to post this! >o< noooees!!

i´ll answer you right after work, sweets! ^^ also all the pms!

Post by: AnnaPommes on November 18, 2012, 01:45:18 PM
sea breeze, actually, yes! fingerpaints tried to snatch some from NZ too, but i if you are directly there, it would be easier for you too. ^^ i´ll put you on the list, please send me your artwork-wish!

true vampiress, fudges sound very nice,no cherry chocolate, but do they have cookies too? ^^

sora, thank you very much for the offer! i know and love uk-choccies, but i need to see how i finish my artworks so far. let me work a little more, so i could see how long i need for one picture request, okay? i don´t want to leave anyone waiting for to long. >.<

thank you, dazzle kitty! let me see how i get around with the pictures and i´ll come back to you! ^^ 


it´s really awesome how many participating! i want to include everyone, but my pictures take time, as i want them to be good for your nice g
doing. ^^
here are these, so far finished.
first, traditional. i couldn´t scan it, so i took photos. it´s for sirithfin, who loves art nouveau as i do, so she got an elegant lady, inspired by the advertising-posters by alphonso mucha.
my favorite part are the colors and the gold-paint, ohh, yess, you can´t work with gold in digital works, nooo.

Zenna, thank you! where did you come from again? XD

i tend pretty much to draw for everyone who likes, even if i end up with a lot chocolate from the UK and the USA, chocolate is always great! but i´ll finish the others first. ^^
i try to work anytime i have inbetween, don´t miss to send me your artwork wishes!

yay, sirithfin! :D i am so happy you like her! i thought of her pretty much of a muse or godess and was afraid i was carrying it to soft. i did send you a PM! :D


silverskimmer, uh, well, he likes dry apricot and "the fruit dates". XD why does the fruit calls like a date? i mean a rendevous? who named that? XD
but i am not sure about pineapples, well , he definiately likes fresh pineapples. i need to sneak up to him and ask him without being suspected XD




edit:
achers request is ready!
its her persona, which is a unicorn, with :muffin: Pony. archer always wanted to fly but never could, but :muffin: Pony shows her how she can fly too! a few seagulls join thier journey and :muffin: Pony probably lost something too. ^^"

Still thinking about the comission  :drunk: i know what character I do want (greek pink Parasol FTW!), probably digital to print, but I don't know what else... Could you give me some ideas? :)

Thank you!

Post by: sugar_apple on November 22, 2012, 06:31:31 AM
I'm also still thinking about the commission, I haven't decided on the character yet, but definitely traditional. The art nouveau piece is so beautiful, I also happen to love that style  :lol:

But yea, frankly I've been so busy lately that I haven't started gathering the chocolates yet. Btw, when should the sweets be in the mail... do you have some sorta 'at latest' date? :D  (not saying it would take me several weeks, lol, but just to be on the safe side :))

thank you very much for the positive response, especially about my traditional art! ^^

sugar-apple, it would be great, if everything arrives up to a week before christmas.  ^^ so it would have a few days in case of bad chrismas-package-traffic.

I escaped from my cave today (work and home) and had an outing to the supermarket for juice, so picked up what I could get my hands on with choccie. Still have more to get, which I will grab as I see it.

Its a nice little box of Aussie and NZ goodness at the moment though :)

My little box is full to the brim now, but I still want to add a few things! Do I get a new box or should I just declare myself finished and ship it? Decisions, decisions....! X)

Also, I'm from Sweden not Finland, it's just easy peasy to get Fazer (Finnish brand) chocolates here. ;)

I don't mind waiting, I know you're probably swamped with the turnout here! I picked up a couple of things today, I'll try to grab some more Saturday.

Hey, hey I found you a chocolate! I'm also in California and Inky grabbed the ghirardelli's so I didn't think there was much I could do to help you. But today in the grocery store I saw the Amy's brand organic chocolates. I actually got to test these about a year and a half ago when they were developing them as my old job was bidding to make the labels for them. Anyway they are from California and organic to boot so I grabbed you a chocolate "chewy" bar  :good:

Post by: AnnaPommes on December 02, 2012, 02:03:02 AM
thank you for the updates! :D

rayechu, amy´s chocolate sounds great! did you already send me xour idea for artwork? ^^

i just finished two more pictures, but i want to get a bunch more done and post them together. also i would like to ask to do more digital comissions for people who just want to send a bit. (nothing against it!) Any way you choose, i promise, on every picture, i put my heart in it. ^^

and some news:
i haven´t seen him for a while now, because he refuses that i could come over but he promised to visit me today for a few hours.
why is that? well, my birthday is on the 7th and last year he take a gigantic amout of his time to build me a turret from the game portal. i was totally blasted away, it even could light up!! (if you don´t know the game, it has pretty good humor and the turrets got fabulous characters of them selves.)
now, everyone is asking me what he´s building now, AND I HAVE NO CLUE! O_Ov
it drives me nuts, a little bit,..  XD
but anyway, it gives me more time to work on your stuff, i guess. ;)

If you're still looking for people, I can grab some chocolate delicacies from the southern states.  :)
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Marigold on December 04, 2012, 01:26:17 PM
I hope I can do this too!  I just sent you a pm.  And to add to it, if you don't mind a wait I can try to pick up some Esther Price chocolate too.  They are not widely known, but those who live in one of the distribution states knows how wonderful her chocolates are.  In my opinion it is better than Godiva and the other big name popular chocolates.

Will have to message you again soon, I am all ready to send (just about) and need your address. Will probably get it off over the weekend or early next week.
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: keikokukien on December 05, 2012, 02:43:09 PM
Wow, this is fabulous! XD If you still need some, I could put together some chocoalte. Does he like anything in the chocolate (like flavors or nuts or berries, ect? Or even fudge?) or just solid chocolate? Do you need them before a certain time?
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: fingerpaints on December 07, 2012, 05:21:44 PM
Emuel - can you get back to me with address details soon please? Want to get this parcel off soon before I spend money on other stuff, and would like it to arrive before Christmas for you if possible. Being as close as it is, its a bit under 3 weeks :S so I am not too sure if it'll arrive in time as it is.

I'm sending out today! 

I wanted to wrap up the boxes but that would mean I would have to send them tomorrow instead, so I hope it is okay if I send out your chocolates today without wrapping just so I can get them heading to you sooner. 


Do you need anything else from me?
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!

Sent you a pm earlier (no hurry to reply ;) ) and got your box out this morning, its unfortunately not going to arrive before christmas however :( but, at least it is on its way to you!

You will also have a very bleated Aussie Christmas card in there :P it was too cute not to pop in lol.

Hope everything calms down for you soon lovely :heart:

painting water or rain with aquarell was harder than i thought and i ripped the paper a bit while painting over the rain-part over and over again and became a bit frustrated. but i am more than happy that Ardid still likes it, thank you dear!

the shipping from australia to germany is totally crazy! O-O her package probably wont make it in time, but i hope all my send items arrive before christmas. ^^"
it sounds very strange that they really travel throught so many kilometers trought so many hands to the other side of the planet.

we have an amazing postage network, if you think about it O_O




next and in progress are the work for Inky and Silver.  :frolic:


oh, and who of you hasn´t send out yet and hasn´t my adress by now? just send me a quick PM then. ;)

The post office said my chocolate should arrive in time for Christmas (barely) unless it gets caught up in customs.  I marked it as "collectible toy" on the customs form in case your boyfriend pics up the package.  :P
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: Marigold on December 21, 2012, 05:23:39 PM
Oh!  I marked mine as candy.  Hopefully that doesn't clue him in.

Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate!
Post by: ZennaBug on December 23, 2012, 06:00:44 PM
I hope mine makes it soon!  The PO said it would be close, but that the package should make it as long as customs doesn't bog it down.  :blink:

I hope mine's  made it!
Your part of our trade has arrived, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! (thanks for the surprise :D I sew some extra straps to it so I can use it as a shoulder bag as well, and I am SO ditching my old tote bag... Lärarförbundet, get lost :3 )

well, most of you might know that his "mascot" is a little crabby with a tophat. (at least i always give him the hat, because he is a sir, he just likes the crabs ;)  )
the whole family was pretty amazed as we discovered that sirithfin hid this awesome amigurumi-crab under all her sweets, and the card!! how awesome is that? *o*

look at all this chocolate goodness! i have to thank you all so much for the gorgerous chocolate and the kind words! without you this would never been possible!!
:grouphug:

it may look small here, but it is a lot! and all so well picked! we both feel very honored! *o*

well, which to pick first? that was a really hard decision!

he was first interested in those he doesn´t know, he picked up a lot, but finally choosed the chocolate fudge. it tasted really great! i need to make that at home some day! OoO why don´t they sell it here?
don´t worry, he/we will eat all of the chocolate and i´ll report! but with all the chrismas meals, we hadn´t much space in our stomachs for more chocolate. XD

rayechus sweet persona starlight, the stars have glow-in-the-dark paint and i added some golden on the stars too.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login

inky milk hasn´t given her okay for this so far and i got really late, because my drawing tablet went dffshufsiouhdAIOFIOU. yes.
she gave me a really nice story about her persona, inkling, and thundelane being a pair, but since he trains for being one of lunas guards, they only can meet at night. he doesn´t always understands her magic and she isn´t a fan of flying since she is afraid of heights, but both working on it. *o* fighting for each others!

silverskimmer asked for her persona and a few of her pet-rats, i even got a chance to see them, they look really cute! her wings are pearlized and there is a bit of silver in her mane of course. ;)
it was really fun to draw all these little rodents, especially with the googles! :D

i try finishing the last two today, and everything will be shipped on monday. ^^



After christmas batch one:

(these arrived in the first week of new year)

first a package from spain:

EHMERGED!

the three kings! and it is even the 6th today! happy "three magic kings" day! caspar, melchior and baltasar are very popular in germany too. kids go from house to house, sing and bless the house you´re living in. (if you want to XD ) and take donationsfor the church. also, the 6th is usually the day when you put the christmas decoration back and the tree away.

i missed taking more pictures of the spanish box, but you´ll see it on the all together picture. ;)
thank you Ardid!


this came from inky milk, she even packaged the items in gift wrapping paper. ;)

Hi Emuel!
I have not so good news for my package. I just got a call from Hong Kong customs, they check all outgoing mail for threats, outgoing antique items and such and seems like my tube of chocolate condensed milk looked suspicious so they tore my box open. They proposed to toss it all in a bag and send it back to me :( I hope nothing will get lost!
As soon as it reaches me back I'll add the extras I found meanwhile minus any liquids and send it back to you. So sorry about that :( it's already the second time local post makes me angry! Previous time it took 3 month for an item to arrive and I got a neg on eBay -_-
Now I need a proxy to see your brags so far!
Title: Re: My Artwork for your Chocolate -- Brag started on page 6!
Post by: AnnaPommes on January 06, 2013, 05:16:37 AM
oh my great ponybutt! O-O
Don´t worry, its completely not your fault! O_O take your time!
it´s so sweet of you to send the chocolate milk too, don´t rush yourself! *hugs* thank you!
is there another shipping service you could use if it frustrates you so much? >o<
sorry, that you need a proxy for this, maybe i should step to photobucket the next time ^^"

YAY!

I am a bit jealous too I must admit-  how fun to taste a chocolate way through so many regions/countries...

BTW I just receive your notebook and watercolor and they're AWASOME :shocked: I'll took pic of them later! You did a great job there :)

Also, I might steal your idea for my bf birthday in October... :devious: :devious: :devious:

I just received your art for me today!  Stunning.  Gorgeous. Elegant.  I wish I could draw like you do. It's such a pretty style. Thank you so much!   I love her carousel style saddle and all the details. 

I love the extras too.

Emuel I forgot to say I completely forgot to put a card or anything to identify my parcel, I had it well wrapped  & then thought about a card... It was going to be too much of a mission to re-open it. Its from New Zealand I think there's only two of us posting from there. He looks like he's in heaven with all that chocolate...

AAAnd pictures! :D
marigold, i´m glad you liked your suprise! i thought i shouldn´t tell you that imade a traditional instead of a digital. (what she asked for).

sea breeze! did you send the great package with the peanut butter chocolate and the yummy red orange-chocolate pearls? then its probably yours you see here!^^

he opened both packages as i arrived for the weekend and he was studying again, please excuse the unsharpness of the pictures. ^^"

what a great batch! he has christmas every weekend now! XD
we tried the caramel bar and the "jaffa"s both have been gorgerous, to bad we can´t buy them reguilary here. ^^" thank you a lot sea breeze!
visitors can't see pics , please register or login

but the chocolate from zenna was first!
He really liked "See´s", because it was a lot richer on chocolate flavor than our regular german chocolate - and it was gone within a day! thank you, zenna! >o<

his parents took some of the chocolate too (of course, he shares XD) his dad loved the "jaffas" and his mom always sneaked in to steal a bit of the "see´s" bars. ;)

there is still so much more to try! i´ll keep you updated if you like! ^^(or is that too much information? ^^" )

Doeas anyone of you have expierience with swaps? i think a international chocolate swap would be cool, but i wouldn´t suit to host one. would you like to?


and here are the last pictures for tsukikakushi and marigold, and a glimpse of how i worked the last weeks. a WIP so to say. ;)

in the glass on the left are acrylic colors, then next to it a big cup for tea. other you see: my pencilcase, already finished pictures, post-its, lots of pens and cute stuff near my monitor, and, of course, references!
the thing left to the picture is a water brush, you fill the tank with water and it works great with aquarell-colors! it´s from pentel, i highly recommend it!


okay, i guess thats it so far! :D

I was so surprised!  Both with the extras and the traditional.  It is so lovely!  I have it displayed in my room right now next to my mirror and I am thinking of getting a frame for it.  ♥

I'm glad he liked them!  See's makes really yummy chocolates and they're local.  We used to do fundraisers for school through them selling candy bars when I was little.  :)  Also, an international chocolate swap sounds fun!  Hmmmm...

Whee! It made it! I'm so happy the box arrived! I had tracking number (I kept it secret :p) and I could see it had arrived in germany for like 4 days and was wondering if german customs were considering eating it instead of delivering it :/

I'll send you an email soon, with some details as most things are not from China but Taiwan, Korea and Japan :3
Glad you like the stickers, I just couldn't pass on them as soon as I saw them!

Internet is very slow here and outside sounds like we're being bombed because of the lantern festival and the last people people can shoot fireworks. I'll be back in France in 2 days and will be able to check your happy faces :p
