Now, let's shine a bright light on the artists who bring joy to OUR world!



First, we introduce THERESA JOYCE,  who brings a special "art magic" to everything she touches.  Terrariums and ornaments leap from her lively imagination to become miniature worlds with their very own gravitational pull and charm.  Discover cake pedestals fashioned from vintage china and glass candlesticks in addition to Theresa's fanciful illustrations on cards and tags and journals.  Paintings and painted collages play with the natural world and make it sing.  We are grateful for Theresa's energy and artistry-both in the shop and in the garden...









 As always, BETTY WALKER'S creative fires burn brightly, and she continues to amaze us with new cards, paintings , and journals.  This is one of her latest cards, "Noel Butterfly"...





 Now that winter is upon us, we all long for soft, warm scarves and hats...TARI KERSS brings us intricately woven scarves that reflect a lifetime of passionate engagement with art and materials. Her deep knowledge of  art, design, and technique make each scarf something you will treasure for a lifetime.




We also adore these stripy, stylish scarves and hats from BARBARA GORDON.  The reversible black-and-white design is chic, the weight and cuddliness is divine.  We promise:  these knitted pieces will be your friends!






In her usual way,  LINDA SAUTER takes plenty of nothin' and makes something utterly charming out of it...Who knew you could create an enchanting potted garden with a bag of cement, a few handfuls of peat moss, some used milk cartons, various succulents from the backyard, and a lotta handmade love....










JEFF and LISA HANNAN fashion earrings and necklaces from various antique beads, semi-precious stones, Czech glass beads, Chinese crystals, Swarovski crystals, cultured pearls, beach glass, and metal...







Peter and I get a warm glow when we chance upon on our work out in the community--driving past the Bluebird Finial on Highway 12, for example, or seeing the Pagoda Finial Caps at Peter and Maryann's (below) on our way to the shop...Thank you, dear friends, for your years of support!


In addition to announcing our Summer Sale and Winter Sale on this site, we will gradually catalog our work here--making it easier to find pieces you wish to reserve or order. A few selected items, such as TILES and CARDS and TEXTILES, will now be available for shipping...
