Creation Tuesday!

I really have enjoyed doing this blog each week!  It is hard to do – select just a few items that are created – there are so many wonderful vendors here, I can never pick just 2!

But that is ok – cuz I will another chance next week :o)

Ok – so I had selected my items to feature on this blog – and then one of my vendors walked in with the great creation, and I switched gears!

vintage screen memory board Oh Baby!  Took an old vintage window door screen and added homemade magnets.  I love this look, it is just too fun.

Each one of her bracelets are completely different – very cool!

What will you create today?

Cheers!

Creation Tuesday

Several Creations to share today!

Starting with some kid’s room decor.  I just love these painting by K(re)at(iv)e Designs.  They are so sweet!  These are available, but she will also do custom work.  She created a wonderful fairy painting for my girls room 2 Christmas’s ago – and I still smile it every time I see it!

DSCF1003Could he be any more adorable?!  And what about these hippos!

DSCF1004Kate has hidden hearts in this painting of the hippo.  Aren’t they cute!

Ok – so maybe you are past this point, or have no need for turtles or hippos.  Not to worry, I will not leave you creation-less this week!

This new painting just arrived in the shop last week.  Painted by Reisa Peters, it is just beautiful!  I love the colors, the amazing detail of the candlestick – and the flowers laying beside to soften the image.  It is definitely going to be a favorite piece of mine.

So-that is this weeks Creation Tuesday!  I hope we have inspired you  - to shop, to create, to share, to stop by!!

Cheers!

Two New Features

 

Some of my favorite blogs have regular features – so I have been wanting to do them too – here is what I have selected.   I will do 2 regular features a week – the first (a day late because I am going to post today for yesterday!) will be “Fab Find Friday:.  Here I will feature a fantastic find from my many incredible antique dealers.  I will feature items that catch my eye, are an incredible deal, or have an incredible story with them.

Next, I will feature an artist or handcrafted item on “Creation Tuesday”. This will be a fun one – since we have so many amazingly talented artisans here at ARTifacts.

On that note – the first installment of Fab Find Friday!

I love this spool drawer in Vintage Mary’s booth.  All original knobs and just useful for so many things!  Would be cute in a bathroom, craft room, kitchen, children’s room – on and on!  It is a great deal marked at $235! (This weekend she has a sale for 20% off in her booth!  Great deal for this very unique piece.

fav1I love these birds!  Ideas are ENDLESS for these vintage wonders!  That said – they are SOLD already!  They made it into the shop, and 24 hours later, they walked out with one lucky gal!  But I still have a photo, so I wanted to share!

Bake Oven BowlsThese Bake Oven ceramic collectible bowls are the bees knees!  I just LOVE them!  They would make the perfect accent piece in any kitchen!  Just $75 for the set/3 it is a great deal (this weekend she has a sale for 25% off too!  Can’t beat that!)

So, those are my Friday (on Saturday) Fab Finds! 

Let me know what you think of this new feature!

Cheers!
