Raspberry Parfait Handmade Soap

Notes from the artist :
Warning: Do not eat!

This is a hand made whipped cold process soap with a wonderful ripe raspberry scent. We got the inspiration for this soap when we were on vacation and had a luscious raspberry parfait for dessert. We wanted to start out each and every day remembering the wonderful time we had!

Life is too short not to start each and everyday with soap that makes you happy!

Trifold Fairy Card with 2 Tags

Notes from the artist :
This Fairy Card is trifolded and comes with two tags.

The front of the card has a fairy and when you open it there is a flower and the word "Hello" and then when you open that section it is blank on the inside.

I also made two tags that you can use with the card or attach to a gift. They can also be used for scrapbooking. When the card is opened it is 6x12 inches.

Hope you like them!

Felted Robin Nest Pin

Notes from the artist :
There is nothing like felt. Felting is the process in which natural fibers are fused together to form solid "fabrics". The possibilities are endless!

This pin is made with both the wet felting and needle felting techniques. The inspiration for this pin was right out my window high up in a sugar maple tree.

My shop features felted treasures including felted pottery: focusing on shape, color and function as well as nature-inspired accessories and toys for children.

Fashionable Purple Fun Fur Skinny Scarf

Notes from the artist:
I love working with soft yarns, and angel hair is one of my favorites! It has a very plush feel.

When I picked out the colors, I was thinking of my younger sister who loves purple!

Today, April 16, is her birthday and while she didn't want this particular scarf (she has a custom order placed with me for one just like it, only "more wintery"), I thought it was a great way to celebrate her birthday!

Soy Candle in Handmade Pottery - African Rain

Notes from the artist :
I have combined my love of throwing pottery with my love of scented soy candles. This happens to be one of my favorites as it has the look of weathered copper and the fragrance, African Rain, is wonderfully visceral.

I am an avid supporter of Kiva.org, helping small entrepreneurs in the developing world help themselves and 10% of all sales of my Etsy shop will go toward that organization.
