Etsy Artist of the Week


This week's artist is heavensearth. Here is one example of the artist's work. I just love the colors. To see more, visit http://www.heavensearth.etsy.com/

From the artist:
I love organic shapes and color. I also love combining collage and paint to create rich texture and depth on canvas. Primarily I work with Golden acrylic paints, grounds and fluids. All of my pieces are finished an acrylic archival varnish to protect the piece for many years to come. If it looks organic or is organic, I love it!
Im very committed to living a ‘green’ lifestyle and always try to choose products that support this value. The paints I use are for the most part are non-toxic and water based. All my artwork comes from a smoke free environment and I do my best to package my paintings with recycled materials (they end up beautifully wrapped!).

Etsy Artist of the Week

Here is my pick this week...MuffinTop Designs!

Sock Monkeys Unite!!

Most of the monkeys in these pictures have been adopted... however, you can custom order one for someone you love... or for yourself!

You can choose the socks (almost any sock or children's tights work), whether or not you want felt or button eyes, (FYI - usually button eyes makes it a choking hazard for younger children) expression (smiling, sad, neutral) and an item on it's front if you'd like (i.e. heart, daisy, initial or word). Each one is lovingly given his/her own personality.
