Spoiled for choice!!

Master glassblower Kevin Prochaska has me spoiled for choice.  I simply dont know which of his amazing crystal and 24k gold pieces I want.  There are dragons, otters and tigers oh my! Mr. Prochaska lists over 240 different crystal sculptures, ornaments, cake toppers and more.   Each piece is amazingly detailed and features master work one would be hard pressed to find elsewhere at this price point. His works start at just $45. 

One of the best and most amazing features of this artist's work is that he not only gives us the dragons and tigers, he also gives us beauty in unexpected places like the opossum, the hedgehog, the bison and the raccoon.

The featured dragon is available for just $75 direct from the artist.

Now this is what a call a business card case/wallet

It's hard to find a business card case that grabs me.  Most are just plain and unexciting.  But handmade card cases and wallets are often very interesting and exciting.  How about one made of wood?

A master at work

So I taught myself weaving earlier in the year, I suck at it.  I am ok with that. But I am able to identify a master at work when I see it.

I came across this master.  I dont know if the artist sees herself (or himself) as a master but her work is certainly amazing.
