I just wanted to say (as it maybe helpful to the sellers to have their wares featured on this site) that I LOVE the ceramic plaque by mbartstudios. I have added the seller to my etsy favourite sellers list so that when I need to buy a gift for someone all these lovely things are there to hand. So whilst these people may not see an immediate rise in sales – it is all good! It takes time to get your stuff out there and exposure here and elsewhere is such a good thing. But just don’t be discouraged if you don’t sell out immediately – you are on my list and when I need something for someone special I know where you are!

Wow! What a great Friday morning treat. Thanks, Linda, for including my chef invitation. More importantly, thanks for highlighting Reno’s growing arts and crafts scene. I agree about Mary’s plaque. Her work is incredible. I’ve given her clocks as gifts. One of a kind, personal and always a big hit!
Cari-jane, I agree! When I find something I like, I favorite it and when ready purchase from there. It is always great to be introduced to a new audience in any way possible. It’s very nice of you to send out those words of encouragement.
Angie, having just been to the Reno/Tahoe area for the first time, I was struck by its beauty. I had to immediately look up local artists as I knew there would be some great ones.
It was a treat for me, too! Thanks for all of the kind words about my work. It was great to discover Tara’s blog and other local artists as well!
