Holiday Guide #4

Two of my reasons for being thankful this year, my wonderful
cats!

I was brushing my hair last night and noticed how long it really is...wow! Today while I finish shopping I am going to get hair dye to do my hair again....Soon I will cut it and donate it to locks of love, something I have wanted to do forever I'm just not sure when it will happen. With Thanksgiving being tomorrow I sit and remember all the reasons I am thankful, two of those reasons are my cats Char and Totoro. Without them I think my day would lack excitement since they give me many laughs with all their jumping and playing. 

Today I will give you two amazing artists, one a graphic designer and one a graphic designer by day and wire wrapper by night. The graphic designer is my go to gal when I need something done, she does amazing things, she has done my banners for my store and does all the images for my bottle cap necklaces and domino pendants. The other is someone I have blogged about before, I love her wire wrapping and have a lot to learn from her! She has amazing technique and her designs are to die for!

The first, my go to gal, Tara. When I was new to the online selling scene I stumbled across her on Tophatter. I fell in love with her memory wire bracelets, yes she does jewelry too! and I asked her how she got her ends so even,  I still have some that aren't even some days but thanks to Tara I learned fast. She has taught me many things and I have fun talking to her and we vent to each other just like sisters! Now I'm not sure about you but it is good to have someone like her in the business. I have enjoyed taking the things that she sends my way and turning them into my own creations, it is fun. She does banners, clip art and images for domino, bottle caps and scrabble tiles and so much more.

Graphic designer by day and wire wrapper by night, Anne's work is is amazing! When I blogged about her last month I raved about her starfish I think, I love starfish and seeing hers made me smile! Her work is get for holiday decoration, jazzing up your house or having that standout accessory at the work party. Not only is she proud of her work but she also helps spread the word about fellow artists any way she can.
