Shop Handmade San Antonio!

If you are in the San Antonio area, don't forget to stop into Art Inc. this weekend to find a large collection of handmade artisan goods, perfect for gift-giving. The super friendly staff offers great suggestions and free gift-wrapping!!!

Art Inc. has been representing my jewelry for 4 years now and they have a wonderful collection of my one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces. They are also carrying some of Jesse's work now.

Along with jewelry from local and national artists they have a beautiful collection of ornaments. Glass, ceramic, metal from traditional to contemporary. All on display on their Christmas trees throughout the gallery.

They offer a wide range of functional and decorative fine craft items along with their fine art. No snooty art types here, just beautifully handcrafted items for those who want art in their everyday lives!

New Beads!

Finally! I had a camera melt down this week and so things are going a little slower than I planned. But my new William Morris beads are up in my etsy shop.




Also check out the Art Bead Scene, we are doing the 12 Days of Christmas and offering 2 weeks of free projects!!!

And I have to brag, Jess has his etsy shop up and running again with some of his new work. I hope he takes my many hints of which ones I'd like him to make me for Christmas.

1st Monday ETC Holiday Sale!

It's a stocking stuffer extravaganza. These little guys are ornaments, but if you put them on a ball and chain type necklace they would make cute pendants for the pre-teen/teen crowd.

Today only, 20% off my entire shop. All items are in stock and ready to ship out tomorrow in plenty of time for the holidays.

Join me today in the etsy virtual labs for a holiday chat. We'll be dishing about stocking stuffers; our favorite ones to make, buy and those in our shops! Join us in the Red Room at 12pm CST (1pm EST). http://www.etsy.com/virtual_lab.php?room_id=red_room
