Featured Artist: Dream On

Power Nap-Art Print
$12

Mary from Florida is the artist behind Etsy shop DreamON. Being an artist from the time she could hold a crayon, she now cherishes the time she gets to spend doing art. Whether it's watercolor, acrylics, mixed-media, collage or whatever. She feels like she's been wired with an "Art Chip". She always loved to cut, paste, paint and draw from her earliest memories. Mary says "Creating art is what I do, it's built-in by my creator, He enables me, and I love it." At least she knows who to give credit to!!

As a general animal lover, and owner of two lazy cats, I love the print above. That looks about right for what my big fat orange cat does all day. I love the way she leaves it up to you as to what will happen as this scene carries out!

A Great Cup of Coffee
$120

I love this piece, too. It's a fine art piece that measures 11 x 15. I am in the process of decorating my kitchen with "coffee art", and I may have to look into this one to add.

So go check out her shop and all her beautiful art and prints. And don't forget to go by and visit her blog (dreamsaboutart.blogspot.com) as well for info on her art, as well as features on other artists.

Nursing Necklace



I'm proud of my new item that I've posted in my Etsy shop and added to my website in the Baby Boutique section. It's really pretty necklace that can be worn while feeding baby to give him something to play with other than pinching your arm or pulling your hair, and keeps him focused at the same time. It's made with pretty organza ribbon and glass beads, and the loop is knotted in one continuous piece to prevent the beads from being able to break off.

The necklace is made in a little longer length than average (about 20") so that baby can reach it, yet it is still light to wear. It has a lobster clasp closure.

More styles and colors to come, so keep checking back. Makes a great gift for a new mama that wants to keep baby happy while still looking stylish. Please feel free to contact me if there's a specific color combo you would like. You can email me at sparklystrandz@earthlink.net

Featured Artist: Sweet Irie

Pecan Sundae Fling Bracelet
$45

Established in 2005, the Sweet Irie name came about from the newest addition to her family; her kitten, Irie. Her name means, supreme joy; quite fitting! She is the light of her life and the inspiration for her jewelry, as she likes to help her work! Although she admits Irie isn't much help. I know what she means, my cat Cheerio loves to sit on my desk while I work and just stares at me like beads and/or crochet is ancient Chinese kitty torture. Irie loves to play with the jewelry and balls of hemp she uses; stringing it all over the house (again, I understand b/c Cheerio carries around yarn like it's his baby). Needless to say, she now has her own stash of 'toys' lying around. Just as well, she has since moved on from making hemp jewelry and creates the beautiful handmade beaded designs you will see throughout her store.


Cherry Bomb Earrings
$25

Her jewelry is absolutely beautiful. Plus, she's having a mega sale right now. If you buy any two items, you get the third for FREE!! If that's not incentive to go check out her shop, I don't know what is.

Cascade - Staci Rose Wood Petersite Tigereye
Jasper Carnelian Aragonite Turquoise Peridot Earrings
$12.99


Staci was born in Portland, Oregon on February 4th in the middle of a blizzard and has been a force of nature ever since. She has been involved in the arts since she was five years old. She now lives in San Francisco and is busy expanding on her creativity. Staci is a self-taught artist and musician, and believes that every specially crafted piece she creates is intended for special individuals. I for one think that's important for an artist to feel that their vision for what they create is exactly what someone's looking for.

Check out the earrings above. They are absolutely beautiful for fall/winter with their rich colors. And at $12.99 they are very affordably priced as well.
She not only does jewelry, but her shop also contains items such as wine glass charms, Frames, paintings, and ceramic items such as this bowl. I wish I had the space and time to do ceramics. It always looks like such good therapy to be able to mold away and create something. Maybe I should do more polymer clay. You should go visit her shop for some great holiday gifts at reasonable prices. Don't forget to stop by her blog while you're browsing.

She is a proud member of:
WWAO - Worldwide Women's Art Organization
EBSQ - an art collective.

Don't forget you can have anything customized in my shop, so don't hesitate to ask, and as always, you can have fun building your own jewelry at my website by visiting www.sparklystrandz.com

Featured Artist: Elle Belle

Cherries with Lime Pillowcase Dress
$36


Stacey, creator of Elle Belle makes it easy to find handmade, boutique quality baby items that make being a Mom easier and more fun! She started it all when she and a few of her friends started making things for their own children and realized that even though they each only had one or two things they specialized in, colaborating was more fun and makes for a shop full of things they, and we all absolutely couldn't live without.

Check out the darling pillowcase dress above. Each pillowcase dress features ribbon ties at the shoulders that create an adjustable fun style that your little girl will get lots of wear out of. They are constructed from easy care designer cotton fabrics and not actual pillowcases so that they can be proportioned to fit from newborns all the way to size 4. These versatile dresses are perfect for any season. Wear alone on warm days or with a shirt underneath when it's cooler. Great for matching sister dresses!
And I have to promote these slings. I could not have done without mine, Although my son didn't really like being in it too much, I still wore him everywhere. However 17 months later when my daughter was born, she LOVED being in that sling. I'd take her shopping, or just about anywhere with it, and it made it much easier to chase my son around at that point. I highly recommend getting a sling if you have, or will be having a little one soon. They are live savers!!

So go check out her shop on Etsy, and while you're at it, go check out her blog, too! (www.ellebelleblog.blogspot.com)

Featured Artist: Liz Staley

Meet Liz Staley, artist, designer, crocheter, and fellow Etsian. She grew up in Baltimore, but now lives in Greenville, NC. Her mom got her into arts and crafts when she was really little (she wanted to help her paint ceramics when she was a baby, so mama would give her a paintbrush, a cup of water, and a rubber ducky). Ever since then she has loved to draw and create things.

Now, she loves doing art, crocheting, and is getting into making ACEO cards and sewing. She's been crocheting and drawing for years, and also loves to make button pins. She admits that she tends to go on what she likes to call "craft binges", where she'll make a whole bunch of a certain thing, so if you see long stretches of buttons or crocheted items in her listings, you'll know she's been on one! (sounds so familiar--I tend to do the same thing).

Check out the scarf above. Anyone who knows me knows that I loves me some fuzzy yarn. I've even started edging my crochet baby onesies in eyelash yarn to make them fuzzy and sassy. I wish it got cold around here for more than 2 days during the winter to wear scarves and hats all the time. You can find other fabulous things in her Etsy shop.

She is a self-proclaimed nerd and makes all sorts of great geekery. I love this necklace made from keyboard keys. She apparently shares my love of combining crochet and beads (yes, I consider keyboard keys to be beads, I always say beads can be made from almost anything imaginable) to make this choker, and also PINK!

Featured Artist: Mineral Magic

Kellie Peterson of Etsy.com shop, Mineral Magic Cosmetics, is a Philadelphia based licensed cosmetologist. She takes great pride in her natural make-up line and offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

I have switched over to her mineral type make-up and can vouch for how much better it is for your skin than traditional make-up. I absolutely love it. As a very fair-skinned redhead (but no freckles) with sensitive skin, I have always had trouble with foundations, but this one is AWESOME!! The coverage is great and it looks natural because it is all natural. It’s a light makeup that contains SPF to protect your skin from sun damage. In fact, it’s so good, you can even sleep in it and it won’t adversely affect your skin.

But unlike other major mineral makeup brands, Kellie’s Mineral Magic Cosmetics do not contain Bismuth Oxychloride, a byproduct of lead mining that can cause skin irritation such as itching or break-outs in some women, and Kellie’s cosmetics are a fraction of the cost!

Starting with the first photo on top is the super sized Mineral Makeup Gift Set. It comes with a 30 gram jar of foundation, 10 gram jar of blush, two 10 gram jars of eye color, a 5 gram jar of concealer, and a 6 piece mini makeup brush set plus carrying case - all packaged in a beautiful blue organza bag.

As an occupational therapist, I love that Kellie has also included her son, Timmy, in her business. Timmy is nine and has Autism. She is teaching him about business and how to manage his money. So make sure to visit Mineral Magic Cosmetics and check out some of Timmy’s yummy smelly jellies, aroma ice beads and more!

Super Sassy Baby Onesies


I have been making these darling little crochet onesies for a while now, but it always bothered me that I couldn't think of a good way to embellish them. I tried putting some Swarovski crystals across the front for a little "bling", but it just wan't enough for me. So, I found some scrap eyelash yarn laying around and edged a onesie I had made with it. VOILA!!! I love the results. The yarn I use for the onesies is already super soft, and now the eyelash yarn makes it so silky soft and adds that touch of sass I was going for. I am very proud of them now. You can visit my Etsy shop, or Sparkly Strandz to order whatever color you want!! I have a red one with red eyelash yarn trim, and black buttons that looks like a little baby Santa Suit. You have to check out my baby boutique by clicking here. Don't forget about the little "blinged" baby nail clippers. Just what every baby needs.

Some new items in my shop

I've added a few new items to my Etsy shop. You can click here to visit my shop in general, or click on each picture to view that specific item.

Enjoy shopping, and remember that I have free shopping now through Christmas. If you see something you like but want it in a different color or length than what's posted, don't hesitate to contact me to make it what you want, or you can visit my Sparkly Strandz Website to have fun creating your own piece of jewelry by choosing color, length, etc from the drop-down menus.

I had to put this ring up. Gotta love the green 'shroom. I also make rings that are for sale in my shop, but mine might be considered a little boring compared to this!!

Since I'm still on a button kick, I wanted to post this bracelet. It's made from 1" buttons, and has a great retro look to it. Plus, as I've mentioned before, I love swirly things!! You can find this in Lost Mitten's shop for $10.

She works as an Application Analyst from her home in Anchorage where she resides with her husband of 16 years, Shawn; extended non-family-family, Anthony; and two hot doggies.

Depending on the time of year, the material may change but the focus will always be the same.... COLOR! COLOR!! COLOR!!

Another Plastic Bubble Bangle
$5


Check out this bracelet. I love it!! It is a leftover piece of plastic that she tried to marble. When she wasn't satisfied with the marble process, she turned the heat gun to it. Instead of just bending, the plastic bubbled then molded to form the bracelet. There are remains of orange and blue paint from the marbling process.

Alaska Hot Doggies is a proud member of the Etsy Fiber Arts Street Team.
