MORE Affordable Artisan Home Enhancements_ ONLINE

ETSY

Shopping Etsy is a win/win, although it's easy to get lost navigating through countless searches of subjects in all things handmade, refurbished or found for your person and or home.

May I recommend if you find a seller you like, follow the sellers favorites to get started.


Several of many shops I suggest on Etsy:

Jeanpelle


Ramona Owen


Humble Collection


Sharon Montrose Photography


Paper Day Studio


Julene


Elsita

LOCAL ARTIST RESOURCES_ MPLS, MN.:

Although, all of the above are great sites for Home Enhancements from your personal computer; I strongly encourage you to visit local galleries and artist sites along with antique stores for those special pieces- even on a budget.

Some of my favorite local Minnesota Resources for finding talent, prints and original artworks include:

My all time favorite local artist is JOHN RUMMELHOFF. I have employed several commissions from him for clients, have many of his pieces in my personal collection and can't say enough about the depth, concepting and beauty of his paintings, drawings, water colors and woodworking skills. His friend Kim is currently working on a website for John. If you wish to contact John- please email me or contact Kim on the above link.

LLADRO

FREEZE FRAME BUTTERFLIES

NATUROFANTASTIC

EQUUS

BACCHUS

GALLUS

After seeing Sarah Cihat's newest collection i wanted to share LLADRO fine porcelain. LLADRO carries a vast amount of highly traditional pieces but has several collections that are both modern and timeless.

Rehabilitated Dishware

D I R T_ C O L L E C T I O N

As a huge fan of white porcelain objects, i was absolutely thrilled when i saw Sarah Cihat had expanded her company (50 cent dishware). I own some of her platters and plates and have gotten great use of them for years. As a faithful fan of her past work i must say that the "DIRT" collection is a show stopper.

White Glaze

R E H A B I L I T A T E D_ D I S H W A R E (50 cent dishware) by Sarah Cihat.

Don't be fooled by my all white post, Sarah uses a lot of vivid color in her designs. She also has a vast array of silhouettes in her dishware designs. Go ahead- check out her website!
