Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Inspired by Oceans

I sell handcrafted, unique jewelry with nautical flare! I enjoy creating beautiful pieces that you can wear year round. I also include seasonal items and paper goods such as cards and gifts.

During the spring of 2011, I decided to take some time off from my teaching career. Throughout the summer, I began creating jewelry and it has blossomed into my own business. I am really enjoying creating pieces in my free time.

Inspired by Oceans was literally inspired by the ocean. I spent fifteen years living on the coast of Maine, in particular, a small island named Southport. I enjoy the beauty of the sea, whether it is during boating, scuba diving, swimming, or sightseeing. I recently relocated to the Midwest and have missed seeing the water everyday. Making sea colored jewelry has brought me close to the ocean again!

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Fired Up Ladies Hammered

I am a single parent of 3 wonderful teenagers ( that sure is an oxymoron!) and am a full time artist. I show my work at art shows, about 45 a year, and then sell on the internet through Etsy. I currently spend the winter in Florida in my RV so my kids can go to school and I can pursue my art full time. My house is actually in Ohio and we spend the summer up north. 

I have been making jewelry with my handmade clay focal beads, www.firedupladies.etsy.com and www.firedupladiesbeads.etsy.com, for about 10 years and about 9 months ago began working with the metal. I started out with just the stamping and incorporating the ceramic charms and have just kept exploring and continue to try all types of new designs. I am constantly thinking about how to do something different and unique with my work.

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Two Broads Design

Two Broads Design all started when two life long friends, Jen and Lindsey, decided to share their creativity with the world! Lindsey's love of shiny objects such as crystals, beads, and crafty projects started to rub off on Jen. From there the love of making jewelry and crafting exploded into a supernova of amazing Broad products!

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Sams Crochet

I have been crocheting off and on since I was 8 years old. The last few years, I have been crocheting more regularly, and have self-taught (and with online tutorial help) some more dynamic styles. Health has always been part of my life, as my Mom was a fitness instructor, and she inspired me to make my first yoga mat bag. After finishing massage school, I really grew to see how important health and fitness really is, and love to make items that make that day-to-day routine that much more fun and easy to do every day! I love to do custom work, and see the lovely combinations of colors that come from what others see and request. Please don't hesitate to ask if you see something you'd like to personalize for yourself or a loved one this holiday season. Thanks so much for shopping!

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Thunderpeep Designs

write it... send it... share it... love it. 

Original art & paper goodies

As a formally trained Graphic Artist, I have always been inspired by the bold colours, strong lines and functionality of Scandinavian design But when it comes to creating a visual world most of the thunderpeep illustrations come from some silly saying I heard walking down the street, or oddball folk tale from times long passed.  

My main priority for thunderpeep is to share my quirky creations in a fun and functional way, spread across a variety of paper and fabric goods.
