Positively Charming Things

The last ArtFire Crazy Train rider for March and incidentally the first for April, for 3/31 - 4/1, is Cheyenne Star Studio. Carla is the artisan behind Cheyenne Star Studio, and she works with metal - hand forging and hammering copper and silver into wonderful jewelry creations.  Go check her out!

The ArtFire Crazy Train rider for March 29-30, is Mayz Lampwork Beadz. May creates lampwork beads, if her studio name didn't give it away. I love the look of lampwork beads, and maybe one day if I have enough time, I'll try learning this art form.  But for now, I will just ogle and drool over others' handiwork.  Please go visit May's studio and see what she has available!

The ArtFire Crazy Train rider for March 27-28 is Mother's Love. Natasha is a jewelry artisan, with many beautiful items available in her studio, from earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and sets in any combination thereof.  I believe I even spotted a few beaded rings as well!   Please go and visit her studio!

The ArtFire Crazy Train rider for March 25-26, is the husband & wife team, On Pens and Needles. Now, I have featured them before as a member of one of the Artfire guilds I am member of; however this time they are the Crazy Train rider! *choo-choo*! Here are a couple new items they have that were not in their studio the last time I featured them:

What a day. I was having a rather bad day (day job related), and then I checked my email and saw I had a sale! Oh my gosh! I can hardly describe how happy that made me and it just made my day. I'm ecstatic! It is only a few dollars, but really I don't care, I am happy nevertheless!! This is what I sold: I can still hardly believe it! It's already on its way to California to its new owner, I hope she likes it! It put me in such a great mood I decided to add a couple more listings for some…

The Shops with Less than (10) Sales guild's featured studio of the week of March 22 is Dancing Wind Designs. Sue creates hand beaded jewelry.  Beautiful hand beaded jewelry.  Go check out her items!

The ArtFire Crazy Train Rider for March 21-22 is Glass and Wire Gems. Donna creates beautiful jewelry with mostly dichroic glass as well as lampwork beads; many of the fused glass dichroics are wire wrapped with sterling silver or gold-filled wire.  Please go visit her studio and have a look!

The ArtFire Crazy Train rider for March 19 - 20 is Wearable Art Huggable Friends. Laura knits and crochets many items - mostly things for babies and children, but there are a few scarves available for adults or children alike as well.  She has the cutest little crocheted stuffed toys, cupcake hats, baby berets, and infant sweaters and jumpers and more...  Go give her a visit!

The ArtFire Crazy Train rider for the 17th & 18th is Grand Prairie Woodworks. This studio is headed up by Tim, a master builder of Mission furniture.  At his studio he offers cutting boards, wooden cooking utensils, picture frames, lamps and a few other items. I think the items look superb! Here is a small sample of what he has to offer, go give his studio a visit:

This week's Shops with less than (10) sales guild's featured studio is Liquidambar. Liquidambar is a husband and wife team, John and Kitty.  They work mostly with pottery, but Kitty also works with glass and creates ceramic jewelry.  Here are a few items from their studio:
