Gifties and Trades

Thank you all so much for your comments on my tattoo post! So meaningful and honest. Loved them!

Over the holidays I had the pleasure of trading with an artist who's work I love! Valentina is a talented gal originally from Venezuela but now residing in Miami, FL. Her work make me happy! Not to mention that you can tell even from her blog how genuine and kind she is.

 

And my cherished friend April sent me these goodies. She sent me the "wake me up" and "night owl" tiles previously but just added to my collection with the fun "sushi fresh" tile! She knows how much we like sushi! This little fish ornament is handmade by a German gal she knows. Quite cute! Thank you my dear friend-I will see you in a few days. :) I will be leaving soon for the Atlanta Gift Show, hence the lack of posting.

btw- April has a great blog with all kinds of fun tips from shopping, music to recipes and decorating. She's full of inspirations!

A few other blogs that have been inspiring me lately: Enjoy.

Hi, Michelle -- thanks for the shout out and link! Good luck at the Atlanta Gift Show -- I hope you'll write about it when you return; I'd love to hear about it. Do you mostly wholesale your work?

Are you still producing any of your great vases? Everyone who sees mine wants one and I can't seem to find them anywhere!
