handmade inspiration and poppytalk handmade

i finally updated my shop and was inspired to create a few new things.    

handmade inspired by the sea, navy blue jelly fish 

handmade inspired by my mom, black ginkgo leaf 

all of this was motivated by jan, co-founder of Poppytalk, a design blog and poppytalk handmade, a virtual online arts & crafts market (the original online market of it's kind).  she wrote to me and said, "We love your pieces and would love to have you join us! "  that was enough for me.  

 

she invited me to participate in their  "eco-themed & mother's day market" (an online arts & crafts virtual fair) at poppytalk handmade where they are showcasing all things sustainably handmade or vintage including mother's day gifts, papergoods and anything good to mother earth! also they are celebrating the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, april 22nd.  

she gathered many amazing artist for her showcase.

cheers and happy monday.
