Charm Bar

I wanted to share the awesome Charm Bar that my sister made for me. I just used it at a show this week and it worked like a charm! If you'd like to see how she created this cool display, check out her blog post on Where the Grass is Greener. I have lots of Charms listed in my Etsy shop if you are looking for any holiday gift ideas. They make great teacher gifts.

Here are a few new ones I just made:


I spent the afternoon today taking photos of new jewelry pieces for my Etsy shop. I'll be listing new pieces everyday this month, so be sure to hop over for a visit to the shop.

Enjoy your day!

Artomatic 2!

At the request of my daughter Madi, I am posting a few more photos from Artomatic. There were so many amazing pieces of art, that I just kept taking photos. I ran out of time editing and writing on Tuesday for the Artisans of the Month post, so I thought I'd share a few more photos with you.

Josie's Art
This exhibit was really fun for the kids, they got to draw a picture and put it in the glass box under the displayed art. In the month of November The Blue Elephant Art Center will display their work. We'll have to take a visit there and check it out.

Synesthesia Art & Photography

My son Ryan and I visited Artomatic one last time yesterday. He is taking a digital photography class, so he really enjoyed all of the different photographers work. Sorry to see the exhibit come to an end, but I really did enjoy it. Hope you enjoyed the artwork!

Artisans of the Month

This month I am featuring many different talented artists. I found all of these amazing artists under one roof at the Artomatic art show in Frederick, Maryland. Artomatic is a 6 week event featuring the creative works of over 300 local artists. It is a wonderful experience wondering through the over 70 different rooms of art.


"What is Artomatic@Frederick?
Artomatic@Frederick is an independently organized and licensed Artomatic® event headed by volunteers. The program is designed to create community, generate an audience for the arts and expand economic development. All this is done by transforming available space into an unjuried venue featuring the creative works of hundreds of local artists in an annual 5 week event. This diverse venue  includes the visual arts, theater, music, and poetry."


There were so many incredible pieces of artwork that I was going a bit camera crazy. I would like to share with you some of my favorites. I have included links to the artist's websites where they were available.

Hands of Hope by Kids Like Us

 I really loved the Hands of Hope artwork created by the Kids Like Us organization. It's a wonderful organization that helps students that are directly impacted by substance abuse in their family.

"Kids Like Us is a substance abuse prevention program offered through the Frederick County Health Department Substance Abuse Division Prevention Services for youth ages 8 and up.
Kids Like Us is funded by the Frederick County Board of County Commissioners Alchohol and Drug Abuse Administration."

Statement: "Hands of Hope features our hands traced in fabric and glued to the mural. The hands are “pockets” holding dreams, hopes and wishes. Some of the pockets are open and viewers may respectfully read our wishes and return them. Viewers may also wish to add their wishes, dreams and hopes along with ours."
