I'm excited to share a few snapshots from my NEW studio & boutique...
I've been hard at work getting everything set up! Using a mix of my vintage finds and colorful fabrics and embellishments I'm designing a unique and inspiring boutique where you can come and "make your own" mixed media kits, shop vintage finds, buy handmade journals and mixed media artwork.
some of the unique things you'll find...vintage kimono fabric, handmade papers from Asia, Thai silks, hand spun yarn & fibers, hand painted collage papers, Balinese beads, hand crochet pieces, pompoms, yoyos, vintage embellishments, fiber jewelry and much more.
For the past 15 years, I've collected papers, fabrics, embellishments from all over the world during my travels, hunted antique and thrift stores to curate a one-of-a-kind shopping experience. There are a selection of mixed media kits that I put together every week. Don't worry if you are not in the area, I will be selling kits in my Etsy shoppe and new online digital boutique soon. If you are working on a special project and require interesting pieces, you can email me and I'll create you a specialized one-of-a-kind kit. If you are planning a visit to the Bay Area/California make sure to contact me to make an appointment to stop by. I'll be announcing my grand opening soon!! It's almost ready...
come by and enjoy a cup of tea with me....xo~Traci

My eyes lit up when I just saw these pictures and read your post. Your collection of colours, textures and bits and pieces is soooo inspiring! This alone would be a reason to visit the Bay Area again!
Good luck with your ad-venture!

Artfully,
