| Description: | Hi, my name is Julia and I'm the creator and owner of the Spotted Sparrow. I'm an American living in Germany with my husband and internationally renowned Cyber Kitteh. When I first moved to Germany in 2007, I was faced with a new culture and, more importantly, a new language. While this was daunting, I thought of it as the perfect opportunity to make a fresh start and do something I really love. And so began the Spotted Sparrow - a combination of my love of paper, vintage goodies, and the environment. |

Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans out there!I know there are a lot of non-American readers out there, so here is my veresion of the story behind one of the biggest holidays in the US: A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, some English blokes sailed to a new world. Their first winter there was harsh and food was scarce. Luckily, some local fellows came along and shared their food with them, including a tasty local delicacy called pumpkin. To repay them for their generousity, the Brits gave the local fellows various diseases and stole a bunch of their land. The end.I have no idea if that story is true or not, but that's what I remember being taught in

I never used to wear skirts or dresses, but now I do all the time. It must be the dismal, grey weather that makes me need to wear pops of color. What better way to do so than with cute, comfy stockings?Want to join us and s
