Hello Hello Hello

It's starting to feel like The CraftStar is THE place to be (and it is), and we want to do a shout out to some more new shops.

The swan in this photograph is absolutely beautiful, and looking at it makes me feel serene.  Jerry Cowart is an award winning photographer and his shop is just filled to the brim with amazing photos.

I love the simple but stunning look of this geometric quartz crystal necklace created by Emily Brownback and found in her shop Old Soul Flow.  Great bohemian pieces for the gypsy in all of us.

What better way to add flair to your holiday table than with this vintage tablecloth? Claudia Carver has some really nice vintage and upcycled pieces in her shop, Chameleon.

 I've always wanted to try my hand at spinning, and this burgundy alpaca roving looks so soft and would be perfect for my first try.  Maple Smith is an amazing 72 year old widowed school teacher who has surrounded herself with animals that she loves, and they in turn provide her with fleece for her shop, North Star Alpacas.

Robin Grasty is the owner of the shop Inspired Designs by Robin, and she is filling her shop with lovely charm bracelets, like this fun gingerbread Christmas bracelet.

This pink roses soap looks absolutely delicious!  You can find this and other wonderful bath and beauty supplies in Pegasus Soaps.  Michelle has been making soap for 9 years, and makes them as you order them, so they are fresh.

Heather Dittmar has created some of the cutest dolls for her shop, Heart Felt Plush.  She first creates her dolls on the computer then brings them to life with felt and thread.  What little girl wouldn't love this Goth Pink Doll?

Wow....check out the colors and detail of this Autumn Tree of Life Clay necklace.  Kiki Engel added every leaf and branch piece by piece on a clay base to create this pendant.  Wait till you see what else you can find at Charmingly Yours.

Another new jewelry shop is Angela Wilbern Jewelry.  I love the look of this triple strand green czech bead necklace.  Angela has been designing jewelry for 15 years selling at local craft shows, and now she's sharing her talent with us.

Now if you're looking for the perfect gift, contact Katrina Brown from Custom Gifts by KB and get a personal custom ceramic ornament.  Katrina is a military wife, and has used her talent to stay close to her family, and now she is using her talent, for us.
