Feed your backyard birds in style this winter with a Baxley-textured hanging bird feeder.  You might choose to get a head start on spring with one of Lynn's new rusty-roofed bird houses.  Either of these would make a great gift for your gardening friends or family member.

Lisa Freeman studied Graphic Design and Marketing at KSU and worked 20+ years as a free-lance graphic designer.  With those years in her past, Lisa now enjoys working in a wide variety of mediums including fiber, wire, metal, and beads of all kinds.  Finding inspiration from “the wisdom of those around me”, Lisa creates pieces that hold a presence of spirituality and peace in the spaces where her works hang.  

Bemby Yocum has worked as a graphic designer and illustrator for years and that is uniquely reflected in the design of her pieces. She uses wood, wire, beads, and her original printed art to create her pieces for the sale. Her husband, who patiently cuts her designs out of wood, helped her create a new contemporary Holy family with a shepherd and sheep. A coordinating angel is available for purchase to display alone or with the set. Bemby’s unique style, whether as an ornament, greeting card, wooden nativity or a decorative piece, will be sure to add a touch of color, fun and a little whimsy to your holiday décor! 

Steve invites you to join in the fun at "Shinin' So Bright.  He opens his studio and gardens for you to experience and discover handmade gifts for you and your family and friends.  He works primarily in concrete, hypertufa nd handmade paper.

Patty Casalou,  of Casalou Creations, is pulling out all the stops for our “Shinin’ So Bright” holiday sale. In addition to her “Farm to Jewelry” line, featuring locally grown botanicals, she has created a variety of giftable items for everyone on your list! 

 Rita's summer was busy, 

     that is so true! 

There were so many new arts      

     that she wanted to do. 

Casting stone and then painting      

     were two of those things.

 Silk dying, some  baking        

      and making  glass bling.

Making new masks was also a task,                       

      wearing them for awhile now-       

            she was sure it would last.

So come for the art,        

       and the holiday spirit you'll get. 

But it's her fudge and nut brittle        

       that you must not forget!

Leanne from South20studios has new totems and flowers inspired by nature. These are sure to add some fun and color to your winter garden.
