there was not much to be proud of my birth country lately...even if I don't feel patriotic at all, things like these hurt me a lot. To be completely honest with you I love and hate it, at the same time. Seeing this product design by Coba & Associates yesterday on theDieline make me feel more in LOVE

My favorite is Malena tube, liqueur with honey and fruits like sour cherry, raspberry and woodland strawberry made by RakijaBar .Great to have in your purse on a freezing winter day or to help you handle tough situations :)))
Love the chocolate with the street map, too

Thank you!

your orders went far beyond my expectations! Thank you so so much!

I wrote a post once about the importance of packaging.One of the things I learned in the meantime at my own expense as a seller and as a buyer is how important is for your lovely packaging to arrive at its destination.It might seem like a very banal lesson, but here is what made me think: Recently I purchased few items from various small shops through Etsy and mini cards from MOO.Believe me or not none of these items ever arrived.I sent the emails and received an answer and replacement from MOO in 24 hours.I'm still waiting for a reply from other shops, and don't get me wrong I know how it feels when you have to answer one of those mails- let's say it's not the first thing you wish to do in the morning...and even less in the evening :) But  when people from MOO answered, all my disappointment disappeared, I felt loved and cared for, and I was completely convinced that they are the best place to buy all my business stationary in the future...It's not necessarily truth, I'm sure that the small shop owners care even more, but the psychological impact of their approach makes a big difference.I would love to hear your thoughts...
