So I've been busy, really busy. Last weekend I was at the TCA gift market. Here is a couple peeks at my area.
Yes, I know what you are saying to yourself. Does she NOT know its Christmas season? Well of course I do, I had great things to give as gifts! But I'm not a big Christmas decorator so needless to say my area reflected that. But I loved the colors represented and had a really nice weekend.
Between that weekend and this one I have several favorites to share with you that you should consider when shopping and supporting artisans.
In no particular order:
1) http://www.etsy.com/shop/laughingcrafter2
Buffy makes the most beautiful and whimsical pottery. And not "normal" pottery. Its' quirky and colorful and lets just say I'm looking forward to (2) special ordered tea pots.
2) https://www.facebook.com/PoeticPosies
Kim makes the daintiest and neatest hand stamped jewelry. (Yes, spent money here too!)
3) http://www.handmadebyeme.com
The jewelry made by these ladies is so tastefully and nicely done. Not to mention quite affordable for as pretty and well made as their pieces are. Again, left some money with them too!

Want to fantastic and comfortable leggings? Or maybe a skirt? Colleen has them! I bought a pair of the leggings and wow! They fit great, they don't develop drooping knees or legs after wearing and sitting and moving in them. I'm definitely going to be purchasing again as these are great!
Currently in my studio it looks like a hurricane struck, literally. I have grand visions for reorganizing and making over to better accommodate my flurry of activities and maybe when I get to that project I'll share some of the blood, sweat and tears that will ensue.
For now I have only the start of some new projects. One is this that I've drawn.
Not sure how this will finish out yet and I also want to do these on a piece of large loose canvas.
That is the update from my studio for now. Be sure to check out my Instagram postings also and
trying to find a minute to update my online store over on my website. Christmas IS coming!!
Have a wonderful week.
