This week's EtsyInspired shop is Jared in Kansas, fine art nature photography. There are so many beautiful photographs in this shop, so much to be inspired by. I really love how Jared captures nature's beauty. There are picture of such simple things but with a close look, they are truly phenomenal. I love the way he uses beautiful natural light for the photos. The colors are vibrant and beautiful. And the depth of focus really makes the photos breath taking. The shop offers prints from 4x6 inches all the way to 20x30 inches and ACEOs. These would be a lovely addition to any home and also a great gift. He even has free shipping right now.

EtsyInspired #60 ~ Vivikas

>> Saturday, October 31, 2009

This week's EtsyInspired shop is Vivikas. Now, I know I say this A LOT but I love this shop! I mean, I really really love this shop. It's one of those shops where if I had tons of money, I would just buy the whole shop out and arrange everything in it in my studio. They call the items in their shop "toy art" and it truly is art. I would NOT let my kids play with these plushies, they are too cute! These are the kind that sit on a shelf and get treasured! Everything is made from felt, stuffed and then 100% hand stitched. You can see how much love goes into each one of these creations. Along with traditional plushies, they also offer ornaments, magnets, keychains, and kitty toys.
