Paintings and beads, sculpture and jewelry. Drawings and much much more... that's what today's shop has to offer. BunnyKissd on Etsy is filled with fun and colorful bits of clay, pendants, beads and more to make you go "awwww!" and give a smile.
Diana, the artist behind BunnyKissd, is filled with artistic wonder and loves to express herself with a wide variety of mediums from paper, paint, glue and scissors to polymer clay, pencils, watercolors, photography and even the occasional computer art! She's a member of a number of teams on Etsy that I'm also involved with including the Etsy Bloggers Street Team and the Queer Etsy Team.
My favorite piece in Diana's shop at the moment is the beautiful crescent moon necklace you can see pictured here in this post. I have to admit, though, it was a hard debate for me because she has some of the cutest winter ornaments with s'mores and other marshmallow and snowman themes as well and they're all very cute. And also the hungry caterpillar sculpture that made laughter bubble the minute I saw it as well!

When I first came across today's shop, I was fascinated. First, by the piece featured here in this post. And then, when I followed the link that took me into their shop, that fascination grew with the first glance at the many other amazing pieces they have for sale as well.
I love lampwork. I've been a big fan of fire since I was a wee little thing, and the fact that you can use fire to mold and shape glass into such unique and amazing pieces of art as is possible in lampwork artistry? It's just breathtaking to me and extremely inspiring.
I also love going into a shop online and feel as if I've stepped into an artist's museum exhibition.
Vonbeads Glass Gallery accomplishes this with flare and beauty both.
Each piece in their gallery is like a tiny world encapsulated in a bubble of glass and seems almost alive within their dreamy ensconced worlds beneath each bubble. Looking at this pieces is like a peek into those dreamy other dimensions.
I've spent well over an hour or more in their shop just enjoying the artwork within, and I'm sure you'll be fascinated too, so go take a look!

I was absolutely fascinated when I came across today's shop, and I have a feeling that you will be too!
I have very little experience with polymer clay other than the colorful disk-like beads that you occasionally find here and there in craft shops. It's one of the mediums that I've just never tried to experiment with.
I'll tell you what though... Madeline over at 
beadsCraftz has this down pat.
Just look at the bracelet in the picture to the right if you don't believe me. Have you ever seen anything so beautiful and intricate and just... perfect? I haven't. I can't even imagine the amount of time and effort put into making this piece and many others like it that are offered over at Madeline's shop.
Madeline is a self taught polymer clay artist that has spent a lot of time experimenting to achieve the best results possible for her craft. All of her beads are made from Premo or Sculpey clay, which are both artist grade polymer clay. The use of this clay combined with Madeline's image transferring techniques create some truly stunning results that you can clearly see in the variety of pieces she has to offer.
This is definitely one shop you don't want to miss... so go check out beadsCraftz and take a browse through Madeline's beautiful gardens. You'll be happy you did!

Yes, yes. I'm having one of those "I Want One!!!" moments. OmG am I ever.
Like knitters, I feature lampwork artists pretty regular on here, I just can't help it. I'm a fan.
That said, although all lampwork art is 
unique, sometimes you come across something that goes beyond unique into a whole 'nother level. And that's the case here.
I never would have thought of this myself. Mushrooms made in glass? But the moment I saw it, I fell in love with it. Little mushrooms captured in clear glass pendant drops. I love it. LOVE it.
Nomad Crafts Etc is ran by a family of six. Mom (Janelle), Dad (Jason), Daughter (Nevaeh), Daughter (Brittney) and two Ratters - PizzaMan and Remmy. They carry not just lampwork pendants, but also beads, sculptures, toy tops, vessels, vases and more; all lampwork all the time!

Okay, okay so I told myself when I joined Etsy to sell my stuff that I wouldn't go willy-nilly buying everything I ran across that I fell in love with.
And for the 
most part? I've kept to that promise. On the other hand, I just couldn't resist these little Christmas tree lampwork beads. They are SO adorable. I wish I could have bought all 12 she has available but I made myself show some restraint and bought a set of four.
Mindielee has a lot of cute stuff like this in her Etsy shop too! She shows some real talent and a wonderful eye for vibrant eye-catching colors that you just don't see that often turn out classy instead of cheap. She pulls it off beautifully! You should check out her shop if you have a chance. She's really friendly too! I needed to work with her in email for payment due to a PayPal server hiccup and she was great.
