This blog is about my travels and hiking as I collect mosses for my terrariums for selling. I hike nearly every evening. The 600 acres surrounding my home are ever changing. Every hike brings a new discovery. If you are reading this, you most likely love mosses. You might design terrariums or vivariums. Or perhaps you just enjoy reading about life in the woods. If you are interested in my mosses, drop me a line or check me out on Ebay. My Ebay user name is pinchingpennies4now.

Pixies Found!
Success! When I first arrived at my site I was very discouraged. All I saw was oodles of frog moss with reindeer moss throughout. I walked the entire area and saw no pixies. I did gather some reindeer and put them in the car. Then I noticed lots of moss over near a stream so I walked over. It was all frog moss - some amazing mounds! Perfect circles - 1-3 inches across. And all around were pixie cups! Lots of them! Some frogs circles have pixies in there too. I am so pumped! I listed a combo piece - frog moss and cushion with pixie cups on my eileenb714 Ebay account and a piece of frog moss with lots of pixies on my pinchingpennies4now Ebay account. Right now I have to box up some orders for shipment today - I'll be listing some on Etsy later once I'm done. I'll add a great pic I took of a HUGE area of pixies later too!
