Creative friend

I love surrounding myself with creative people! I feel that we all feed off of each other's energy and inspire each other to create some amazing things and ideas. I was invited to join a friend Rosa at her house for cafecito (coffee) and enjoyed her homemade bread and blueberry tart. Rosa is an incredibly talented person. She bakes amazing goodies and also specializes in cakes. She also showed me some of her amazing little girls dresses that she has handmade with smocked detailing and embroidery. I am on a mission to introduce her to Etsy and see if she too can set up shop.

DuBuhDuDesigns art prints

I am so excited that Christine Alvarado has decided to sell prints of her art dolls. She is an incredibly talented artist and photographer. I have tried many times to purchase a doll of hers and as soon as she announces on her blog that new dolls will be posted in her shop they are GONE! This might be the closest I can get to owning an art doll by DuBuhDuDesigns. Check out her prints....

Texas Etsy Treasury

I was pleasantly surprised this morning to find a message saying my Agotyo freshwater pearl rosary necklace was being featured in a Texas Treasury! I absolutely love being featured in Etsy treasuries! Check it out!

Handmade purchase from RN & TN Studio

My most recent purchase from a husband and wife artisan team RN & TN Studio based out of the small city of Lamphun in Thailand. I absolutely love their handbags, Ipod holders, & wallets. I love that they design from nature- using symbols for the sun, flowers, and the look of wood in their products. I asked them to make a custom business card holder for me. When I received my card holder, I loved the look of the packaging and my little leather key floral accessory given as a gift. From one artisan to another, I thank them for the presentation and quality of their work. Check out their website!
