We're adding more new designs to the already hundreds of jewelry pieces in the gallery. On Friday, October 2nd you'll have the opportunity to choose as many as you would like, enjoy scrumptous hors d'oeuvres, and sip delicious champagne with your friends. Stop by after work and get your weekend off to a great start.
If you happen to be in Medina, check out the A.I Root Company. In addition to their complete assortment of exceptional candles they have now begun to carry our work. They have a selection of our home accessories and shopping in their gallery is really a delightful experience. When you enter the shop your senses are immediately awakened by the sensual colors and heavenly fragrances of their huge candle selection. You'll find our work in the middle gallery, just past the "room of candles". We've also begun to sell, in our gallery, a selection of taper and pillar candles that complement our work. We've created several new styles of candle holders that would make a great addition to any living space, warm a room for the holidays or just make a perfect gift for that special person this upcoming holiday season. Stop by our gallery M-F 11-6 or Sat 12-9pm.
It seems as if the preparation for the Girls' Nite Out has been going on for weeks and it's finally coming down to the home-stretch as all the pieces (literally) are coming together. With all the new handmade beads to choose from, designing the earrings and necklaces is probably the most fun since not only are the combinations endless but you simply get lost in the moment as the new pieces come together and each in its' own way is like creating a little sculpture. Time passes much too quickly. Careful ... can't have too much fun ... we've only have 5 more days til Girls' Nite!
It's getting crazy in the studio with everyone pitching in and getting the work done. It's shaping up to be a fun evening with lots of really cool designs. Tami at Dine-In Diva is working on some savory and sweet treats and we've put the champagne on ice. Don't forget, Friday, Oct.2nd from 5-9pm.
The work of today's preeminent furniture artists as well as up-and-coming innovators can be found in 500 Tables, a spectacularly diverse juried collection.

Establishing a collaborative line of pieces has been the result of determining that people enjoy using and viewing artwork on a daily basis. "We enjoy the daily overlapping of our personal and professional lives and we believe it enhances our individual creativity." Collaboration is an enriching process for theses two artists, and by challenging each other, a balance is achieved, and the contribution of each person's particular skills has here resulted in a product that surpasses what each could achieve alone.
