So there I was at the
Odd Duck Bazaar, in the land of WANT... marveling at handmade creations that can brighten up a home -- for a desk, wall, sink, bed, kitchen --wherever.
The first thing I bought was a Marilyn sticker to tart up a plain thrift shop journal that I decided to make into my new work diary ...which I intend to write in everyday!
Then I found this happy owl, painted on a piece of wood, by Rachel DeJohn at
Peace Owls and Other Lovely Things. My friend Debbie bought it for me. XOXO her!
Rachel is on the right, and her sister Jessica is on the left (duh!). They are both beautiful artists.
Jessica calls her biz
Chloe The Hot Dog & Friends. She made this LOVE-ly little dish which was about $10 give or take a few bucks.
Love these deerly! Bambi-licious wall decor (about $45 and up) from Sara Leigh (sounds like the cake) of
Stitch of Whimsy.
Super sweet Goodnight Moon pillow from
Shelley Mitchell ($70).
Katrina Cristobal and her grandmother Olga shared a booth. Each woman displayed her own brand of kitsch.
Chuckie's in love with Olga's doll plates, made with vintage Japanese doll faces, Hong Kong baskets, and an array of vintage embellishments.
Katrina's woody signs ($20) and plated wall art ($24 - see what she's holding two pictures before) are part of her
Home ECOnomics collection.
And I could not resist this $5 musical instrument for one of my bestie's little boys. I think Cooper Tantau needs this in his life.
XOXO, jane
