Azulado Raffle and Prizes


Selection Of Azulado Raffle Prizes


Sandra -a member of the EuropeanStreetTeam- had the extreme misfortune of losing her husband over the holidays and is left to support her five year old son on her own.
Her etsy team ESTspirit has taken it upon itself to organize a raffle in support of her plight.
For a $5 ticket you will not only be in the running for over fifty prizes -only some of which are shown in the mosaic above- donated by talented and generous est team members but you will also be supporting a grieving family.
You can see the whole story, the details of the raffle and the prizes over at StarOfTheEast.

You can even see Maria's own heartrending account of her story on her blog Azulaterra.

And of course you can always visit Sanra's shop Azulado and buy one of her ceramic masterpieces.

If you are not familiar with Sanra's beautiful ceramic creations, then the  photos above will give you an idea of her wonderful work.

I came across some deep, garnet red satin that just begged me to try my hand at it.

I spy.....Eried Minimal Handsculpted Bell Flower Brooches


This week, I spy Eried's latest addition to her beautiful minimal accessories, namely the fabulous bell flower series of brooches.

Bell Flower with Oxidized Silver Stamen by Eried

First of all, I must disclose the fact that I am a long standing fan of Eri's work....I love the organic form of her accessories that seem to be inspired by the natural world in general and flowers in particular.

Bell Flower Brooch Set by Eried

I'm always impressed by the way she can transform ultra romantic flowers like pansies, roses, tulips and jasmine into undisputably contemporary accessories.



Sand White Polymer Clay Bell Flowers by Eried


This series of bell flower brooches in mostly black and white is no exception and fits right in with the other highly stylized and surprisingly edgy flower accessories in her shop.
