Featured Friends - Laura from LeAnimale

I think one of the best and most unexpected things that has happened since I started selling on Etsy and selling at craft shows are the wonderful and talented friends that I have made along the way.

I hope you will enjoy seeing objects made by a few of these friends!

Today I introduce you to Laura of LeAnimale!  She makes the most wonderful animal totems, necklaces, and notebooks!  Each one is specially sculpted and just looking at them amazes me!

I really want this cute little penguin necklace! She has a virtual zoo in her Etsy shop!  Laura doesn't live too far away from me, and I look forward to having coffee with her again soon!

Featured Friends - Tracey Gurley Bath & Body

I totally goofed on Monday and didn't do a featured friend!  However, since it is Friday, this is the perfect friend to feature since we all deserve a little pampering going into the weekend!

Tracey is a multi-talented artist who not only makes wonderful Bath & Body products, but she is also an amazing painter!  Actually all of the labels for her B&B products are made from snippets of her paintings!

Go have a look at her shop TGurleyBathandBody!  You will find everything from soap, lip balm, scrubs, and creams.  Some of them sound good enough to eat!

Today I would like to give a shout out to John and Emily of McCoyToys.  I met John and Emily at a dismal craft show.  It was the kind of day where you realize that the only way to make it a good day is to accept the loss of money and make the best of anything you can!  John and Emily were set up next to me, and we all laughed about our pitiful sales and the lack of traffic, and started talking about where we were from and Etsy!

I am a better person for having met the two of them!

No run off and go check out their toys!  They are two of Santa's biggest helpers!

This week I would like to introduce you to Sarah-Lambert, aka TuckooandMooCow.  She is a watercolor artist and paints the most fabulous miniatures that are captured as jewelry, pocket mirrors, and various other goodies! 

I love this luna moth necklace!  It reminds me of seeing luna moths flying around our neighborhood as a child.  I am so thankful that my parents took the time to point out these amazing creatures!

This week I would like to introduce you to Michelle, aka Calamaristudio.  She is a freelance illustrator and her designs of the sea, sea creatures, and night sky remind me of my adventures scuba diving and climbing on the Appalachian Trail! 

I love print of her jelly fish!  Isn't it just amazing!

I love this message token!  I think it would be so lovely for a parent who travels a lot, or who is facing a long deployment to give it to their love or child as a reminder of their feelings even when miles separate them.
