Funky jewelry and great mixed media and college artwork.

Check out this 4x4 mixed media canvas is made with a hand painted wooden giraffes and layers of paint, paper, rhinestones and modeling paste. If you're one to decorate your apartment with a modern feel, this would be the way to go. Or! If you were like me and wanted to have a super trendy and non stereotypical baby nursury, this would be great wall art.

Like the artist comments, this image will jazz up any room. Bright colors and a fun theme to it. If you have a piano room, it just might be the perfect piece.


And who doesn't love Marlyn?

You get 2 pendents for the price of 2. Whoa baby! I love vintage! These would also be cook on your key chain.

Deabus Amor

Featured etsy artist of the day is in fact Deabus Amor!
http://deabusamor.etsy.com

A very cute little shop. It's a place where you can find fabulous things to wear and wonderful wall hangings.



I find for this piece to be the most talented work. It's great! Titled Watermellon Wally and the Terrible Accident. Kids, this is what happens when you don't wear a helmet. This piece has great colors and a wonderful energy to it and a touch of humor.



This next wall find is titled Winter Solace. I'm from Minnesota, so this is just all to familiar when it comes to winter. This is sometimes what my hair looks like in the winter. :) Great black and white photograph. Very sophisticated and it's a wonderful feature of forms that mother nature makes. Lovly.

And let's not forget the things you can wear in her shop.


Tis clay pendent is very intricate and detailed. It should be fun to see this etsy artist expand and grow more in her shop. Keep an eye out.

Sunshine Patchwork of Art!

Etsy artist of the day, Sunshine Patchwork.
http://sunshinepatchwork.etsy.com

A new favorite accessory of mine are felt pins. I love these handmade felt goods that are made by Sunshine Patchwork. This Sexy Seamstress Dress form Brooch is sooo adorable. Felt brooches are a great little number that can jazz up your winter coat.


This Happy Pear Felt ring is also another fav of mine. I love the touch of the orange button to sweeten it up.


And last but not least, the lovable Birds Eye View Brooch.
Again a hand stitched felt bird is always a great accessory. I also really love the contrasting colors of orange and blue. And the button which makes this little bird very wide eyed.




I'm so happy to have found this etsy shop, it's now a favorite.
