Just Mare

Seeing that I'm going to a ceramic supply place today to load up on more ceramic items that will eventually make it into my shop soon, I decided to feature Just Mare, the lucky duck who got the Featured Seller spot on Etsy's front page right now.

Why did I pick Just Mare? Decals, baby. Nothing makes me weak in the knees more than a carefully placed and intricate decal. And good craftsmanship and glazing choices, as you can see below.

If you haven't caught the interview yet, her feature is on Etsy's front page.

There's so much more to see on her site, so check it out! Off to the ceramic supply store!

Disconsolator

Though I've tried, I've never successfully made a bound book or journal. Something about binding the spine to the covers just doesn't work well. So, I've been able to appreciate those artists that much more who can create beautiful journals. Disconsolator is one of those artists who has it down. I love the fabric selections, the craftsmanship, and the price. There is something for everyone.

Blue Flower Journal

Orange and Blue Eyes Journal

Perfect Little Heart Journal

There is so much more where that came from, bicycles, mason jars, fab prints and nature themes. Check them out and let me know what you think.

Fields of Aphelion

Fields of Aphelion has an interesting approach to photography, in that she takes multiple exposures of a subject in 35mm film and relies on chance to determine how the final photograph will turn out. The results are visually very appealing and dreamlike.

BB Glass Art

I've been wanting to feature some more glass artists on Etsy and I was pleasantly surprised to come across BB Glass Art. BB stands for glass artist Brendan Blake, whom along with his wife Shauna Blake create one-of-a-kind beads and jewelry pieces. The results are simply stunning. There are loose beads for sale to use with your own projects, along with completed earrings and pendants.

There are so many lovely items to choose from in the shop. Take a moment and check it out, then post a comment here!
