Help I'm in the evening paper!

Who's that geek in the evening paper (Ilta-sanomat) today? Oh my, it's me looking goofy! I had nearly forgotten about this thing, a freelance journalist contacted me some 6 months ago and told me she was doing an article on female craft businesses on the Internet and asked me if she could do an interview  with me. Sure thing, I said and had no idea that it was going to be sold to one of the evening papers,this fact made me a bit nervous about the result, but it does look alright, except for that expression on my face :) And look at all those cards getting all this exposion!

What else is going on in Sykoland? Well, I started making tomte stuffies yesterday, just a little bit later than last year. I quite like spending my evenings in the sofa stuffing tomte legs and bodies. I will make enough to have some to add to my shop later this month. We've had some wonderful warm autumn weather here the last weeks and the colours outside are wonderful, we are happy to live surrounded by big old maple trees.

How exciting! I can't wait to see some of the tomte (or nissemen, as we've always called them)!

Moi Jonna! Ihana että Armas on vieläkin in! Olen skipannut joulumyyjäiset tänä vuonna, viime vuodet on ollut sellaista hässäkkää että olen ollut ihan burn-out jouluaattona. Helsingissä tonttuja myy ainakin Pulu Unioninkadulla vien niitä sinne niitä viimeistään Marraskuun viimeisellä viikolla. Hakaniemen hallissa Karttuunilla saattaa myös olla niitä. Muutenkin näkemisen arvoinen lelukauppa. xKajsa

AACK! That's awesome! You are so famous it's not funny!! I may be in our local paper soon. I was interviewed for an Etsy article.Hugs and Congratulations! Nothing like a little local exposure!!!

I love your clothesline production line! Fabulous :o)

Tonttuja! Mahtavaa! Meidän vauva tarvitsee ehdottomasti omansa. Armas on niin rakas Haitulalle, että pitää tarjota mahdollisuus tontturakkauteen myös pienimmälle :)

Oletko tulossa joulumyyjäisiin Helsinkiin?
