Another New Home–this one for Lee

So, we had a huge shake up – loads of new vendors – loads of vendors that shuffled around to try out something new – give everyone a fresh look! 

Lee Ireland for example.  Check out her new space -

Lee’s melted wine bottles made into small bowls or cheese plates are so unique they make excellent gifts for house warming, hostess, birthday party OR even better – just because!

Lee’s dichroic glass jewelry is so beautiful!  What is dichroic glass?

Dichroic glass is glass containing multiple micro-layers of metal oxides which give the glass dichroic optical properties.  Simply put – SPARKLY!!!!

Hope you enjoyed your tour of Lee’s new space!  I think it is perfect for her amazing work!

 

See you downtown!

Featured Vendor - Lee Ireland

With all the attention on the 12 days of Christmas, we haven't given enough details on our amazing artists and antique dealers we are featuring this month!

We are starting today with Lee Ireland, stainglass artist and creative wonder! When Lee moved into ARTifacts, she was so excited, she struggled to decide which direction to go in with her creative items that she creates. Everytime she comes into the shop she has something new to share - and I always am so excited and impressed with the new creations she has whipped up!

All this while her best seller from day one continues to be the melted wine bottles, formed to create bowls and cheese plates. Customers love these for wine lovers, hostess gifts, wine bottle collectors and more.

One weekend last spring, Lee was even nice enough to teach us how to make these necklaces you see here - so much fun! The price that she has on them make it totally not necessary for you to wait until she teaches it again! Great selection, great fun!!

Lee has always made beautiful jewelry, but recently, she brought in this amazing collection of jewelry to sell. You will be very pleased with the prices on these pieces and what great gifts they would make this holiday season - the gift of local art!
Lee is an incredible talent - and we enjoy your talent all the time! Come see for yourself what she has to offer!
Cheers!
