Fall – Winter 2022
Hello my Dears!
My goal for the week was to write a blog summarizing the past months and the autumn-winter fairs.
The last time I wrote a post was in June.
Next month, I would also like to write a newsletter or a blog so that the many experiences that happen to me and Bottlepost.org do not pile up.
Maybe its all better for us because I don’t have to write a novel 🙂
I save time for myself and for you too 🙂
Who’s up with procrastination?
Did you think that I was the Queen of procrastination? 🙂 A friend of mine told me this week that we procrastinate because
we can’t decide which task to start with, which exists in a huge bubble in our head, so we need to write it down, as a goal,
as a daily task and break it down into parts.
I have to give her credit.
Blogging was such a bubble for me. My God, I wrote a blog half a year ago. It will be enough this time to write about the present and a short summary of the fairs.
I divided the content of the newsletter over two days, so it took much less time.
I am proud of myself 🙂 I wrote the newsletter instead 🙂
It’s okay, I had to write that too.

Hello again!
First of all, I would like to say THANK YOU to my existing and future customers who trusted me to create their unique stamp art pictures. 2 of them traveled abroad. One to Finland (Papillion dog) and one to Italy (portrait of Queen Elizabeth II) and both arrived safely. The other 3 remained in Hungary (Portrait of the dachshund, the little mermaid and Her Majesty on a pink background.)
I can’t show you the last one yet, because a very lucky lady will receive this as a birthday present in December. )
PS: You can place your individual order until November 27. You can order without frame as well.
I post worldwide (without frame)

New products are on the way…
…and they are also very colorful, like my personality 🙂
I can’t live without colors. The more, the better 🙂
I started painting with iridescent watercolors, I even tried to make them myself (so far with no luck). I bought everything: pigment powder, gum arabic, glycerin, mica powder, painter’s knives…only I didn’t have the recipe…that’s why it didn’t work the first time. Maybe next time 🙂
In my hands, not only stamps, but also old, antique, antique-effect frames and mirrors are reborn.
Let me show you my first attempt.
I asked my followers on IG and FB who would have liked the blue frame better:
For Marie-Antoinette or Cinderella?
Cinderella won 🙂
I will keep this, but the rest will be available at the fairs and hopefully in my webshop next year.
In the image below you can see how my first iridescent watercolor painting turned out with the addition of some die cut postage stamps.

Spring / Summer 2022
Where I was during April/May/June and where will I be at the rest of the summer…
Dear Bottlepost.org fans!
Its been a long time since I have written to all of you…
Now I am going to summarize up the last events I have attended.
Trying to keep it short 🙂
For Bottlepost the market season started in April 2022.
I have attended a 3 days long fair in the Botanical Garden of Buda, it was the Tavaszkert Ornamental Trade Fair.
My table was in the triangle of a cash machine ( by the 2nd day it has been plundered), a bin and men’s toilet 😀
I was not pleased at first, but at the end I did not mind.
Probably my stand was the most visited 😀
I have sold 4 pictures and I was asked to make a custom order of a Corgi 🙂
The customer had to wait exactly 2 months to her order as the postage stamps I have ordered from overseas did not arrive.
Still not,but I had to re order from other Vendors within Europe.
While I was on holiday in mid June the re-ordered stamps landed in my post box, so the next day I could start the work.
All together the Corgi was made in 6-8 hours. Delivery date will be on the 28th June.
In May I have attended 2 fairs: Kiskertpiac and Szimpla kert
At Kiskertpiac 3 of my pictures have found their new home in Miami, Florida
A German-Hungarian couple were also visited the fair.
The gentleman’s mom was Hungarian and were born in Dob street (2 streets away from Ankert köz).
They were looking for a present to his 96 yrs old mom and when they saw the heart shaped stamp art ( see above), they knew that it will be the perfect gift 🙂
His mom loves everything with heart shape. Like I do 🙂
One of my decorated glass, an original Bagarol was also travelled to U.S.A.
Bagarol was originally a shoe polish. See below picture.
In Szimpla kert I had only French customers 🙂
One of them was called as I am : Corinne in French. Corinne came from Normandy with her family for 5 days and their first trip was headed to Szimpla Kert 🙂
I am always happy to meet with other women called Korinna or Corinne 😀
So , Corinne fell in love with the little mermaid and her husband bought it to her as a present.
How sweet, isn’t it ?
In June I was attending a 2 days long Lifestlye Expo and Mineral Fair at Lurdy-ház (11-12th June)
It was my 15th market , since I have started in 2020
That weekend slightly changed my life in a positive way 🙂
Most of my customers were children and I am very grateful for them 🙂
I got so many new impulses, smells, beautiful moments, I have found my lost soul within those wonderful people I have met during those 2 days.
I could connected to them immediately.
The passion came back to my life and my spiritual store is recharged 🙂
The highlight of the market was a custom request from a Vegan Indian Restaurant. The only request was to create it from 100 % Indian postage stamp. What it will be, you will see in one of my future post in July…
Also a long time no see friend also showed up ,which was unexpected and since then we have reunited 🙂
Grateful for your visit, Bea 🙂

Pop-up market in our courtyard 09.10.2020
Dear Everybody!
I have been involved in 2 other markets since August after my first very poorly managed one.
I was present in the Szimpla Kert organised by SimpleFashion and Sofitel Marketplace organised by Kiskert Piac.
Although the last 2 did well, we decided to try the pop-up market in the front yard of our house.
We could not have made a better decision.
Luckily the weather was good too, we had our home fair on one of the last days of Indian summer.
People came to us that I would not have met at all at the organized markets.
I didn’t have so many orders in any of the organized markets like this one.
My latest products includes Christmas greeting cards made from stamps, which has had unbroken success ever since.
They took all of them right away. I got a lot of orders to make Christmas cards.
I like to make not only Christmas, but any other motif, be it a birthday, name day, wedding anniversary …
I constantly upload my completed works
here: FB: https://www.facebook.com/bottlepost.org and the
and here : IG to my site https://www.instagram.com/bottlepost_org_/
I also take individual orders for pictures with or without a frame. For details pls contact me on any of the platforms ( FB/IG/Email)
My most recent order is a framed panda teddy bear for a little girl who is under 1 year old. I can’t wait for all the black and white stamp. 🙂
It will be one of her Xmas presents. 🙂
In addition to the pictures and greeting cards, I was waiting for the visitors with a lot of different postcards.
Summa summarum, the fair went well and if the weather allows, there will be more to continue.
Bye!

Second chance 02.07.2020
Dear Blog readers, old and new customers!
My webshop will restart on July 2, 2020. This is the second “birth day” of my webshop, also my husband’s 39th birthday 🙂
It may not be a coincidence that a second chance starts on the 2nd ? 🙂
During the quarantine, I kept posting about my work, the international and Hungarian used postage stamps , the new stamps issued by the Hungarian Post Office and the postcards I made after printing, both on my Facebook pand on my Instagram.
What I haven’t written much about yet is that I’ll be taking custom orders with or without frames from July 2nd 2020.
It is a matter of discussion what the themed image should be, in what size, what color frame…
The price depends on the size of the picture and whether you want to order with or without a frame.
Each picture is unique, I don’t create the same pictures twice, just similar.
For example, like this:
or this:
Someone saw this as a rocking horse, but it wasn’t 🙂 This is a mother-daughter thumbnail I made for my mom to Mother’s Day and I could give it to her only in May 2020-
Even such:
I feel like I got a second chance from Fate because I found my own style that wasn’t with me at the start of the webshop in Sept 2019.
Colors have always been important in my life, so I make thumbnails for colorful backgrounds.
There’s always something colorful or something unique about me that makes mestand out from the crowd – that’s what they say about me.
I can finally stand out not only with my clothes or accessories, but also with my work.
So far, I’ve never enjoyed a single job like this.
If you want some unique gift for your parents, brother, baptism, birthday, wedding or just so, feel free to contact me on any of the following platforms:

Thank you for reading!
