Darling Pottery & The Chair Lady
Darling Pottery has a creative flair that doesn’t just express itself through her pottery as her business name leads you to believe! Here you can see all kinds of goodies she has created, for her enjoyment and yours! Pottery, photography,, knitting, handmade knitting needles, recycled candles, handmade journals and more.
Newer vendor to our gang up here is this great lady and her talent kids! Cindy and her girls are “The Chair Lady”. Full of fun ideas, quirky style and great one of a kind home décor pieces. And since the girls go to school at APSU – they also have created all kind of APSU garb!
Right after I took this photo of the directors chair they brought in a new one. You can see that one on our Facebook page!
See you soon downtown!

Local Artistans & Vintage Item Collectors –Relative Collections & Lily’s Collectibles
Continuing our quest to help you shop local, and perhaps handmade this holiday season, we are featuring each day 2 vendors at the all Local Shop, ARTifacts Emporium; where you have to be a local to be a vendor here.
Relative Collections has been at ARTifacts since the beginning 4 years ago. Their ever changing style is always fun to experience, but they have consistantly offered the ARCHITECTURAL ALPHABET photography for Downtown Clarksville to our customers. you can purchase letters one by one, or place a special order for any word up to 11 letters. Or by their 8x10 print of all 26 letters. Either way, a very special gift for any downtown lover! Signage and organization is also a favorite product from RC booth.
Lily’s Collectibles shares a booth with RC, and brings many supplies for all creative minds, and many special vintage finds you won’t find anywhere else! If you are a crafter, or a repurpose jeweler – this booth should be on your regular stop and check it out list!
See you and your creative spirit downtown!!

Local Artisans–Inspired Nest
We have 3 new vendors at ARTifacts, all with amazing new products that I can’t wait to share with you all. So as part of the series on Shop Local. Shop Handmade – I am introducing you to these new vendors on their own, so …..
First meet local artisan – Inspired Nest!
Remember the window table that we had here at the shop for a while? The one that was on layaway? Well, we have a new one – and this one is even more spectacular than the last (sorry Ryan!!)
Love this vintage paper and window wreath – fantastic! I love it for holiday décor!
Vintage stools, one recovered for the purpose intended, and the other – flipped over and made into a pet bed! ADORABLE! And this amazing metal crate and jelly canister holder! AWESOME
Repurposed trays into magnet and chalkboards – and unique home décor pieces!
Look at this amazing piece for an entry way – chalkboard note board with a fantastic paint job! WOW!
Loving this repurposed wooden angel – isn’t she beautiful??! Love that she is playing a trumpet!
Did I mention that this lady is super talented? Now look at these knitted pieces. They are so fun!!
Addicted to all vintage papers like me? I am totally addicted, and this stack of old magazines and books is amazing. Loads of Kennedy family goodies here too.
Planning punch for a holiday party? This is perfect for what you need!
See you downtown!!!
