Glueck, A Good Luck Charm

You know how some people have their lucky bowling shirt, or carry a lucky coin in their pocket? This little fellow has got to be the most unusual good luck charm I've seen. Named "Glueck," which means luck in German, he's about 5" tall and 5" wide. Handcrafted from polymer clay over a wire frame, you can get him at NothingLikeIt. That shop cracks me up, so have a good look around while you're there. Check out the NothingLikeIt blog, too--it's always good for a grin!

Wanna Get Lucky? Thoughts Become Things

I've posted before about the power of positive thinking and using daily affirmations to create a luck-filled life. One of my favorite resources is TUT, where I'm reminded "Thoughts Become Things . . . Choose the Good Ones." I get a (free) daily email with short, positive, and often humorous reminder of how lucky I truly am--it's a marvelous way to start the day!

Take a minute to visit TUT, you'll be glad you did!

Lucky Me, I Won!

As I was clicking around the blogosphere the other day the cute little fish button with the "win me!" star next to it caught my eye. I stopped and read a bit, and now I have a fun new (to me) blog to enjoy! I entered the fish button giveaway, and today I found out I won! Another Lucky Day to mark on my calendar!

Toxiferous Designs creates the cutest t-shirts, buttons, bags, and other gifts. Have a peak at the TD Blog, then check out the TD Shop. I love the Darkbirds items, especially this shirt.

A Snifty is Just the Sniftiest Thing Ever

These scarves are really SNIFTY (spiffy + nifty = snifty)! They're 100% lambs wool, infused with hypoallergenic pure essential oils that are embedded into the wool by a unique micro-encapsulation process. Left alone, there's little scent, but slight friction releases a yummy scent. Each scarf is about 8" x 40", plus 3.5" fringe at both ends. They come in 8 color/scent combinations:

Red smells like strawberries
Black smells like cola
Brown smells like chocolate (my favorite!)
Green smells like apples
Orange smells like oranges
Yellow smells like banana
Pink smells like bubble gum
Purple smells like grape (the package says it's supposed to smell like blackcurrant)


I bought a bunch of them on close-out a couple of years ago, and I'm down to my last few dozen. In fact, I only have one or two green scarves left, but more of the others. Perfect for kids of all ages, they make unique and much-talked-about holiday gifts!


I normally sell these for $8 plus $5.95 shipping. Get yours now, before the holiday shopping frenzy starts, and I'll give you 1 free with each 3 you purchase. I'll also charge you only the actual shipping cost, so if you only want one scarf you won't get hit with a big postage charge. (You can go to usps.com and estimate the postage, each scarf is about 7 ounces mailing weight, coming from zip 27713.)


Interested? Send an email to luckygirltrading [at] yahoo.com with the number of scarves you'd like, your color choices, and mailing address. I'll confirm I have the quantities and colors you want, weigh them in a shipping envelope or box, then send you a PayPal invoice. If you feel more comfortable making a purchase through an established e-commerce site, you can get these at my eBay store--but I can't give you any discount there.
