Affordable Art: I vote for art


Niño Cuete by himnôfeda!

I got an email this morning from I Vote for Art an online art gallery / store, with plenty of great illustration work on the site - 25 artists involved so far, and over 70 pieces or work.

I like Niño Cuete above, he's 92 Australian Dollars which is about 92 US dollars, and he's a Giclee print on Crane Portfolio Rag 300 (13" x 15.4").

Way Basics: cheap, green, cool!


Way Basics is a new green company with a line of sustainably made, modern furniture that's created from recycled paper, is completely recyclable, and easy to assemble -- no, make that INCREDIBLY easy to assemble -- with no tools. It's also very well priced. You can even design and make your own furniture.

How cool is that? Greg, hide my credit card. I'm on a TEAR.

Fresh Beauty Products



Okay, not on sale. Not super expensive, though. So, so worth it. The cannabis rose is so delicious. And the gift set comes with the perfume, the body cream and the body wash. The soy cleanser leaves your face so soft, and it smells divine. And the lip balm also smells good and leaves your lips velvety. I love these products!

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15, $22.50
Fresh Cannabis Rose Gift Set ($49 Value)
Fresh Soy Formula f21c Face Cleanser, $38

Kidrobot fun



They sell these little guys at Urban Outfitters, but you can also buy direct from the kidrobot site. My kids love the Kat Leuzinger Zipits. Only $2.95, and they sell in them in blind assortments (When you purchase blind assortment figures they come packaged in identical boxes. The boxes are the same in every way and you can not see what is inside! FUN!) They attach to your zippers on your clothes.

They also have other fun little toys, and my kids have tons of them.

more affordable art



I can't stay away from aestheticapparatus.com

I just got my husband these two prints for $20 each, and they threw in a free mini print. Somebody stop me! I can't stop buying affordable art! I am running out of walls!

not cheap, but very beautiful jewelry




Verre New York makes some pretty, pretty things. These are some of my favs. On top is droplet on leather, $42 if you get it with sterling. The white cluster is the cherbourg large bouquet necklace, $250 in sterling. And last is the three caillou necklace, $130 in sterling.

My 10th anniversary is coming up, so might be worth a splurge, HINT HINT.

affordable art from Shiny Squirrel



There are so many great places to get handmade goods these days. And great places to find affordable art. The Shiny Squirrel is one of them. I'm loving these originals from Lisa Congdon. I knew Lisa back in the day when she was a teacher and I worked in advertising. She is so creative and talented!!!

Measurements: 4" x 6"

{Ephemera, India Ink and Acrylic on Canvas}

$45.00

cute birdcage necklace



You Keep Me Captivated - Birdcage Necklace: $32 from Electic Eccentricity.
