I actually came to your site via a picture for your matchbox tree from last year that was recently posted on Pinterest, and am so glad I saw it! You are amazingly creative and I can't wait to try one or two of your tutorials. Some people just aren't creative on their own...it's a shame they steal ideas from others and pass them off as their own. I suppose it's possible someone else had the same name idea in some weird quirk of fate, but I really prefer your site. And I love your story! I just recently 'forced' my son (13) to sit with me through Blackbeard's Ghost on family night at our house, and we both had so much fun with it. I love that your story includes it!Wendy Ladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13476353515555837297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057290652197422235.post-43147359744299231202013-11-08T18:58:56.772-05:002013-11-08T18:58:56.772-05:00I don't blame you at all for feeling this way,...I don't blame you at all for feeling this way, Karen. I know you work hard on your creations and they really are one of a kind. You are very original and for someone to steal your hard work and success is very offensive to me. I hope there is some recourse for you. At least that would be some satisfaction.<br>I will always be a fan of your blog because of your originality.Judy Ann Lincicumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02916354353800372992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057290652197422235.post-61964892285718041332013-11-08T16:35:51.424-05:002013-11-08T16:35:51.424-05:00Sorry to hear about that! :-(Some people just can...Sorry to hear about that! :-(<br>Some people just can't seem to get creative on their own!!<br>**hugs**<br>augcotthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15657047642999526311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057290652197422235.post-53368815359325035892013-11-08T13:31:47.256-05:002013-11-08T13:31:47.256-05:00This is the very reason I dislike Pinterest so muc...This is the very reason I dislike Pinterest so much! Very dishonest of everyone to "copy" pictures of others. I do not endorse, contribute to, nor copy from Pinterest. Your not the only blog I've read that the blogger's ideas have been "stolen" and posted to someone else's Pinterest page. Too bad there isn't more that can be done to these offenders.Colleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05012718481371649308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057290652197422235.post-71312286488543846452013-11-08T11:49:46.179-05:002013-11-08T11:49:46.179-05:00Me, again.

Copyright refers to your expression of an idea whereas a trademark is an identification. Here's a link to a short description http://www.lawmart.com/forms/difference.htm. So your tutorials are protected under copyright laws without you having to do anything, but I think (I'm going to do a little more research) that you have to register a trademark.Lorriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4057290652197422235.post-74793034179564091412013-11-08T11:44:07.330-05:002013-11-08T11:44:07.330-05:00When I first came across your blog name, I thought...When I first came across your blog name, I thought it was an anagram of Old to New. Perhaps someone else had the same thought on their own? Just offering another opinion here. <br>Stealing other people's ideas and posting them as their own is terrible.
