Some Artist's Work I Really Appreciate

Another edition of me being bored on the couch and using this time to behold the artistic talents of others. I have come to the conclusion that I am the biggest fan of
1. things that have been repurposed (used for something they werent originally intended for) its so creative!
2. vintage (but of course)
3. unique & artsy creations with an emphasis on quality- you can really tell when someone pours their soul into their work. It just shows! For that reason....
I am really a big believer of letting people know how much you like their stuff. I email everyone to tell them. Some write back, some dont. As long as they have been told I think its nice. Thats all :)

OK Onto my finds du jour:
I just love ALL of this artist's work!


Could this be any MORE glorious?

I am in love with these! And they smell good too!?!

Sassy Susan designs all of these scrumptious shabby vintage fabrics and has them made in Japan- the quality is impeccable.

Cute upcycled clothing!

I dont know how she does it but those images on vintage paper make me swoon!

Absolutely beautiful greetings...so original and perfect in every way.

Soldered Bliss from Sally Jean

A classic in my book collection- love this book and all it has to offer

Divine Bauble

Is it OK to love this - even though I made it?! HA! Recycled vintage buttons galore.

OK- More later...take a second to let me know what you think of these picks...any suggestions?

AND for all of you PINK lovers- I just added a new product you are sure to go nuts for:
PINK HOT CHOCOLATE!

You can find it here! Thanks for stopping in!
