Not for the Faint of Heart

This truly "wearable art", by Michele's Art Jewelry is not for the faint-hearted. It's big, bold, colorful and Beautiful! Her work in polymer clay, natural materials and mixed metals is awesome...see for yourself! Michele is an incredibly talented artist...

I'm especially fond of this necklace titled "Asian Dance"

Hundreds of Etsy sellers have come together in a shop called "Hearts for Haiti" to donate 100% of the proceeds of their work to Doctors Without Borders:

The Christmas Tree is Decorated!

The Christmas tree is finally decorated...NOW it feels like Christmas! Of course, it looks a little bare...until Santa arrives on Christmas Eve....

Buy Handmade this Christmas

(I think) My son needs new shoes. And, my husband says he needs a new pair of slippers. So, for Christmas, I'm asking Santa for these two items. In these two cases, he'll probably have to buy retail. After that, I'm requesting that Santa turn to handmade...for all the rest of my family's gifts. And, it's a BIG family.

Please, consider handmade for your holiday gifts this year...there are so many incredible artisans all over the world!
