Hi Everyone I’m new to glitter, although I have been mentioned before In some posts by a pseudonym of “the idea guy” – I’m actually the creator of this blog’s partner.

Happy 2nd Birthday to Glitter In The Darkness! :D

Wow I can’t believe that I have had my very own blog for two years now! Quite often I have these “brilliant ideas” and they last a few days or weeks, then nothing ever comes of them. I did wonder if my blog would be another one of those things. It sounded like a good…
