This artist has a very special way of displaying your little artist's masterpieces. Heather Reid is a mixed media artist who creates a lot with fabric. She has come up with the clever idea to recreate your child's handdrawn artwork as a quilt. What a wonderful idea! http://www.etsy.com/shop/heathers3stars

I am always amazed by people that can crochet and knit with ease. You have to check out Cathy Vick's creations on her Etsy site http://www.etsy.com/shop/cathyvickcreations. Her hats are incredibly cute and even cuter on a round faced sweet pea. I love the colors that Cathy uses - they are so sunny and cheerful. Here is one of my favorites...

Here is a very talented designer who definitely LOVES CREATING! Her name is Devon Freud and her company name is Jelbel Designs. Devon takes women's and children's clothing and "upcycles" them into something new and TRENDY. Along with her clothing line she also repurposes furniture, pillows, scarves and much much more! She has two locations that currently sell her creations - Black Lion in Huntersville, NC and The Light Studio in Cornelius, NC.  The best thing about her work is everything is reused,  recycled, or repurposed.
