hihihi, my boyfriend had bought me this super adorable voodoo-doll *-*
It's a mummy!! <3
I absolutely ADORE these kinds of voodoo-dolls, and my bf knows it :D He had seen all kinds of different voodoo-dolls in the supermarket and he had thought immediately "This is so Krista....", so he bought one for me! hihiii, it made me so happy when I saw it XD I'm so easy to please :DDDD
It was originally a key chain, but I already have so many key chains so I wanted to invent another way to use it. At first we tried to make it a cellphone charm, but it fell off >__< Then I thought that it could be cute as a necklace so I decided to give it a try :D
Ta-dah! :DD It's a bit big, but I think it's cute *-*
Last night I was spending time in YouTube, and stumbled upon a few very lovely short films. When I had watched them I immediately wanted to make a post about them and share them with you guys!
The Sandman
Everybody knows Sandman, right? The lovely little fellow who gives good dreams to children by throwing magic sand on them. Well, this video is a bit more scarier version of the original Sandman. The Sandman here throws sand on children when they are going to sleep, and then rips off their eyes to feed his children with them. It's pretty sad and very creepy, but I loved it!
The End
This is a story about a scarecrow that is condemned to prison because of being friends with a bird, instead of scaring it. While he is in prison, this bird comes and attacks him. He feels scared and can't defend himself from the attacks. He then goes unconscious. After a while he wakes up and realizes that he's not in the prison anymore: The bird was attacking him and stole his stuffing so it could set him free by building him again. The quality of the film is pretty poor, but I liked the story a lot *-*
Zero
This one is a bit goofy, but I wanted to watch it because of the woodoo-dolls! <3 They're so adorable! XD Anyway, the film tells a story about a society of dolls, where each doll is a certain number, from 0 to 9. The zeros are treated like garbage. In the end, the society realizes that zeros are not worthless after all, they can create something very big and meaningful.
The Maker
I absolutely loved this one ;____; It's so cute but very sad... The theme of this film is pretty much the same as in the Frankestein. A lonely bunny(-ish thingie :D) is creating a female bunny. At first I thought he is making her for company, but there is this weird hourglass, and the bunny seems to be in a hurry. At first he's afraid that he won't be able to bring her to life, but then he discovers music and the female bunny awakes. They get to spend a few minutes together, while the male bunny gives her a book where are the instructions to create a bunny. The hourglass then stops and the male bunny dies and vanishes in the air. It was so sad ;;__________;;
Children
Another story about a society of which people are marked by numbers! :D This is a Japanese short movie about a city where every single day is exactly the same. As you can see, the mouths of the children are shut with zippers, so they can't change things. One day, this one child gets tired of everything, and gets enough strength to open the zipper. After this, all the children's mouths opens, and they go do whatever they want. The ending of this is creepy as hell, but very adorable at the same time XDD
1½ weeks ago (oops....) I went to Toivola Old Yard to check out this small Easter market. The yard and the buildings are originated from 1800s and is one of the oldest parts of Jyväskylä. The yard was very beautiful and cute, I love everything old fashioned *-* There were many different small companies selling their products, mostly hand made. There were many things I would have wanted to buy, but unfortunately I forgot to bring cash with me, credit cards didn't work there >____< Oh well, I'm poor anyway so it's good that I couldn't shop XD Here are some pictures of the Easter market!
This was so cute! I stared at this guy playing for like.... a very long time XD

I totally fell in love with the animal hand puppets, I wanted to buy one so bad ;____; I just love dolls and plushies so much <3
And if someone wants to know how my Easter went, I spent it in my hometown. I saw some of my friends and partied a bit, and spent some time with my mother and boyfriend. Also, my aunt visited me and my mother, and we went to a very lovely dinner! Easter is not that special to me, but it's always nice to spend time with your loved ones ^^
I just fell in love with a few Etsy-shops!!! They are shops that sell miniature food and other tiny items for dollhouses!! I absolutely LOVE dollhouses and I'd like to have one. It would be a very nice hobby but it's very expensive if you want to have a very fine dollhouse... Maybe someday I can afford it! ...and have an apartment that has room for it XDDD
Here are the super cute items that made me melt *-*

I really shouldn't be checking them out because then I start dreaming about stuff I can't afford. As always -____-;; Anyway, the shops are:
