The first one is someone who I featured in one of my blogs Halloween weekend. She is the Day of the Dead Catrina I took a picture of at the Day of the Dead Festival.
She saw my blog and contacted me, how cool is that?
Here is the blog post

She also sent me some much better pictures to share with you.
This Catrina's name is Nathaly
One is for shoe accessories and hair baubles, Lola Lolita

Take a look at Nathaly's shops, she has incredible things in them.
What an incredible costume.
How can it get better than this?
The second wonderful shop is from a fellow guild member and friend, Beth. She thought I would appreciate this shop. The shop was featured in her paper on Sunday. She knows I love Day of the dead and art, so she sent me the shop only a few minutes after Nathlay wrote me. I thought this must be a blog post or something.
This my friends is Raw Bone Studio

I love these tin can skulls, It is a skull and tin can, how can it not be more perfect? Sardine cans?? Can it be my next palette? I seriously doubt it, I can not stand sardines. I will leave that to Robin and her friend and artist Joe William Crabtree.
This is great Marie - I will check out the links. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Donna, have a great time looking around.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love those sardine can creations. Like you, I'm not a fan of those smelly little fishies, however, I do love smoked oysters and have a few of those cans, cleaned of course, in my "can" box...hmmm, cute idea.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
xxoo,
Georgina

Those skulls are amazing aren't they Georgina??
ReplyDeleteI thought of you when I saw them.
Such fun!!
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!Smoked oysters. Well they are probably very good for you right.
All too fishy for me.
I will have to stick to my chili cans that I use.
Green chilies are so much more my speed. ;-D
I do like most art. I see it as an expression of the heart and soul.
ReplyDeleteJust the idea that someone would take a huge chance like that and place that precious gift for all to see makes me smile big.
I hope Pam gets to see it too. I wonder if her computer is still down?
Happy Holidays to you too my friend.
I am doing ok. My shoulder is not.
Throws a big damper in my plans. Que sera sera!
Wow I love everything about this post. Wonderful.
