Hello and Happy Friday to you all. I am SO happy that it is Friday and that Blogger is finally up and running. That was scary, huh?
Well - off to this week's Friday Five.
I am seriously in love with the raw beauty of this ring by
Laura Treloar Her store is full of lovely jewelry - all with an original, organic feel. She uses unusual materials for her work and it really makes it stand out from the millions of listings on Etsy.
How beautiful is this print by Cori Dantini? I am so happy to have found this artist. I have really fallen in love with her work, which is whimsical and so imaginative. Luckily, she is also a prolific artist, so buyers have a lot of pieces to chose from.
A deep rooted love of Ironstone has left me with beautiful, but mainly white, serving pieces. I am determined to inject some color into my kitchen, and these cracker bowls from
Atelier BB would be a great start. They are made from white stoneware clay and are dishwasher and microwave safe.
I follow a lot of blogs and recently one* did a great post on Cathrineholm Enamelware and I am so hooked now.
I love the bright colors and clean, graphic style; it is like eye candy for your kitchen.
I have started scouring the estate sales and vintage stores in my area for it, but I haven’t found a piece.
But, I can still bring some Scandinavian style to my kitchen with this print from
Jan Skácelík.
I remember having so much fun making Ojo De Dios (Spanish for Eye of God) in my 3
rd grade art class, and I was so excited to find
Jay Mohler's shop.
He creates oversized, intricate Ojos De Dios, paying special attention to the cultural traditions of the pieces.
Originally, the Ojos were made by the Huichol people of
Mexico.
The piece would start when a child was born, and new pieces would be added every year until they turned five.
