Cat Rings! From Daisy’s Creations

New Daisy Hair Clips from Daisy’s Creations! 

Here’s some sneaky previews of some things i’ve been working on tonight! More to come so watch out!

Thanks to all the people slathering me with support this evening. I really needed it and had no where else to turn to, but some how Tumblr always provides. You people are so lovely xx

So someone left some pretty horrible feedback on my etsy today. I’ve spent 3 years building up a 100% positive report for my shop and this morning I found it scuppered. As this person bought 4 brooches, they left 4 individual negative feedbacks. 

I feel upset by the words used. And because i’ve never had a hint of anyone being disappointed with my brooches so far it just came as a bit of a blow. People are entitled to their opinion and I always take on board criticism, but this just felt a bit cruel. I don’t really know what they were expecting to get, I try my best to use images that reflect the true quality of the product they’ll be getting and the same goes for the written description. 

My customers are so important to me and I feel like absolute shit that someone was so disappointed with their purchase that they felt the need to leave feedback like that. I don’t think i’ll sleep tonight…..

Why Finnish babies sleep in cardboard boxes

For 75 years, Finland’s expectant mothers have been given a box by the state. It’s like a starter kit of clothes, sheets and toys that can even be used as a bed. And some say it helped Finland achieve one of the world’s lowest infant mortality rates.

It’s a tradition that dates back to the 1930s and it’s designed to give all children in Finland, no matter what background they’re from, an equal start in life.

The maternity package - a gift from the government - is available to all expectant mothers.

It contains bodysuits, a sleeping bag, outdoor gear, bathing products for the baby, as well as nappies, bedding and a small mattress.

With the mattress in the bottom, the box becomes a baby’s first bed. Many children, from all social backgrounds, have their first naps within the safety of the box’s four cardboard walls.

Mothers have a choice between taking the box, or a cash grant, currently set at 140 euros, but 95% opt for the box as it’s worth much more.

The tradition dates back to 1938. To begin with, the scheme was only available to families on low incomes, but that changed in 1949.

Socialism at work.

I would rather my tax money pay for this than drone missiles.
