NEON Holiday Art Market

Yesterday was so lovely at the NEON Holiday Art Market in Norfolk!
I was excited and nervous leading up to it - but I was really happy to see the community out and about checking out the different vendors (me included). It was nice to hear your suggestions for new products and locations for finding sea glass around the US and beyond (it's so fueling my travel itch).

If I met any of you yesterday, let me know! I have an instagram account (where sneak peaks of what I'm working on are regularly posted) and a facebook page where I less regularly post my whereabouts.

See you later lovelies!

Ramping up for the Holiday Season

As Halloween ended, I jumped head first into some awesome ideas that had me up way into the night - what is the best way to adhere crayon shavings to the inside of an ornament? Can I use sand as glitter inside an ornament? What will I do with all this sea glass that I've been finding (from the trip in Rhode Island and my daily life in Virginia Beach)?

What do you think about these beach sand ornaments? Handpainted beauties on the outside, Hand collected and cleaned local sand on the inside?

These weren't totally done, I finished them off with pretty tops, and a photoshoot on a fir tree. Talk about beachy christmas-y!

     

Of course, originally - I was just making some awesome digi camo themed ornaments because of my love for a sailor... which then grew to a different digi camo for my respect for the army... but that's for another post! Or you can see them on the etsy shop!

I'm happy for all the changes coming up. It's been a year of something, and I know it's just getting better every day!

Blessings!
