I make fused glass jewelry, coasters, nightlights and business card holders. I also recycle bottles and turn them into cheese platters and bowls. I was interested in fused glass so I took a class, I liked it so much I bought a kiln. Since then I have been experimenting with my kiln and making new projects.

I have gathered recipes from family and friends and compiled them into a published cookbook. I have sold approx. 5000 copies at Secret Haven in Fruit Heights where I work part time as well as home parties. Vol. 1 was so successful that I now have a second volume. Last year I was a guest on Good Morning Utah where I was able to share and cook a recipe.

I make functional fiber art. Beautiful handpun yarns, knit and crochet items such as scarves, hats, handbags, wraps and shawls as well as bath items such as felted soaps and cotton bath puffs. I love beautiful things, but I am also an extremely practical person. I enjoy coming up with ways of taking functional objects and turning them into works of art. That’s why I refer to my work as Functional Fiber Art. These are, for the most part, beautiful works of art, but they also are able to have a purpose. It reminds me of the human race, we also are works of art with purpose. Visit her here…

Create = Be Happy…simple but true for me. I paint gourds and anything that I can. I love what I do! All my creations are one-of-a-kind originals and all pieces are signed and dated. My studio is in my home and it is filled with all those I love most. Holidays are my favorite times of the year so I paint pieces that celebrate them. Delight fills me each year when I unpack each creation as the holidays roll around. The gourds make me smile; I hope they make others smile too. Visit me here…

I’ve been stitching stuff since I was a kid- can’t seem to get my fill. I make bags, skirts, purses, aprons and felt goodies. But lately I’ve found “craft consulting/counseling” to be my niche. It is very fulfilling, especially because I’m very bossy (just ask my family). Visit me here or here…

My stuff is mostly kid/baby stuff with a few other things like tote bags and sachets. I am going to be making some pillow covers (with pillows) as well.

The first moment that we saw each other’s fabric collection, We knew that we were destine to be friends! We quickly made room in our busy mommy schedules for those essential projects. We design all of the objects that make us giddy, make our hearts sing, or just make us go “Ohhhh!” Our favorite projects include the flower bandanas, “nag” rags (dish towels), stroller covers, stuffed owls, and therapeutic rice bags. With all of the ideas floating in our heads, our creations can range from children’s aprons to recycled window cabinets! The more we create, the more we are inspired!

I enjoy upcycling , creating new uses for old items. I have created several designs for what would be trash. The Animal Fairy ornaments are approximately three to six inches high, digitally reproduced, surreal , mixed media collage, which are laminated with beaded wire hangers. The smaller fairies (not laminated) make excellent gift tags. Soda cans and discarded cardboard cutout design push pins & magnets. Soda cutout designs for a pair earrings. Cardboard boxes become eco-sensitive gift tags, blank on one side. I find inspiration in daily life as well as an assistant art teacher for 1-8 graders.

I love the process of creating with glass. I especially enjoy trying to design things–whether it’s a window, a pendant, or a vase–so that the glass “fits” the piece. I am fascinated by the subtleties and range that glass provides as an artistic medium.

I make quality and cute stuffies—in the Bazaar I’m planning on featuring my Blastoid Cats and Gorillas/Gorillies. I’m also hoping to introduce my poster line of Christian and LDS specific posters that share a religious message without calligraphy and a country blue or maroon color palette. Christian artwork doesn’t have to be stuffy or unattractive after all. ;o)
I find buyers who like unique, high quality, and well designed items are drawn to my goods and I aim to please. Visit me here…

The Leadbottom side of things is a variety of goods, most of which were originally created as gifts for my friends and family when I wanted something cooler than the stores had. With 13 nieces and nephews, they mostly revolve around children. The Leadbottom Press pieces are all designed and printed by me and range from alphabet prints to wedding invitations to gift tags and use a variety of printing methods (zinc cuts, wood type, hand cutting from linoleum blocks, photopolymer plates, etc.).

I make magnet and pin boards, magnets, notebook, hand drawn planners. I want everything I make (and buy) to be useful and help simplify my and my buyers lives. All of my products help do that, but take the humdrum dullness out of staying organized by providing something much more pretty and to look at than what you see in the office supply store.

I sell decorative pillow covers. I specialize in young and modern fabric. I also do a lot of applique, hand embroidered designs that I come up with myself and other interesting things like rffles, lace, etc. I think it is important for everyone to have access to great style, so I keep my prices low. Plus, the pillow cover really is the way to go if you want some instant freshness for your home especially for the holidays. When Christmas is over, you just fold the cover and store for next year, no need to store bulky festive pillows. Visit me here…

3. Laptop and ipod socks. These are soft cases for laptops and ipods with unique images and designs. I use rare and unique fabrics for these also.

I make t-shirts and dresses out of original vintage fabrics. All of the patterns are designed for a tight slim fit. The catch to my clothes is that the fabric I use is so original that you’ll never see anyone else with the same item of clothing. I make these clothes because I really enjoy creating things that help people express who they are. It is very fulfilling to make an item of clothing that comes to be someones favorite shirt, or even just something they love pulling out once in a while.

I am Candace. I live with my young son in downtown Salt Lake. I grew up carving drawings in my mother’s dining room table and making miniature farms in the backyard with twigs and paper animals. For two years I was a pastry chef for the Bridge Cafe; funneling all my creativity in to vegan baked goods. I recently achieved a degree in graphic design and continue to create all kinds of stuff from home; selling it online through etsy or at the Women’s Art Center. I find inspiration in the books my son and I read together or in the nature we find during walks we take outside.
As of late I have a huge fascination withhistorical fashion, and small bits of it are winding their way in to myworks as I learn and discover more. I’ve always appreciated flora and
fauna and it seems more birds find their homes among my portraits than anything else (at least for the time being). I’ve got my heart set on creating a series of endangered portraits: one of “my girls” featured with everything from whales to lichen in hopes of spreading awareness. (Crossing my fingers I don’t sound too much like a hippie. {No offense to
hippies.})
I am taking my art in to other forms rather than just the “print”. I am
hoping to sell original works created on/in thrifted books, found frames
and even jewelry. I have cards that are so random they suit any body in
any situation no matter what. Seriously. I have little mirrors inside
hand-sewn pouches. I have tiny hand-sewn creatures in boxes and some
wearing scarves. I think with the range I approach all the stuff swimming
in my head, that I’ve got a little something for everyone.

Dallas Russell was born in 1923 to retired vaudeville performers: Frank “The Flash” Russell and Natasha “Boom Boom” Valnentino…. Ok Dallas just has a wild imagination, as is evident from her fanciful, Easily Amused collection. Actually, she was born much later in Salt Lake City and was bestowed the gift of craft by her mother. Dallas wasted no time in using her artistic inheritance. She began by creating matching outfits and fashionable accessories for her and her doll collection. She finds her inspiration through color, all things adorable, Japanese cute and vintage findings. Oh, did I mention she likes silly things, especially anthropomorphized animals that wear hats and eat spaghetti! Other than making the world a more whimsical place, she is a Program Coordinator for youth at an after-school and summer program. She likes to ride her bike, watch hours of Project Runway and The Daily Show with her patient hubby Steve. So step right up and see the amazing Dallas and the world of Easily Amused!
Inspired by variety, Dallas never makes the same thing twice. She loves to sew and embroider; she dabbles in crocheting, she beads and makes jewelry. So hurry, hurry, hurry, step right up and get your ticket for the imagination contortionist and all of her wonderful oddities. Easily Amused gifts are intended for the frequently exuberant, the blatantly giddy, the often nostalgic and, of course, the easily amused. If you miss the attention to detail of yesteryear Dallas is your gal; her one of a kind creations are great to have and share.

I want to do something completely different this time. There will still be some clay, some felt and some calendars. The theme though is “Whimsimobilia” (to see truly the most boring blog on the planet check out http://whimsimobilia.blogspot.com/). The idea is to create a mini toy store of sorts made up of fun things that I am making out of the detritus of the business. Small books, table tent prayer list/pads, puppets (?), felt books, felt tissue holders, super strong clay magnets (circles & bees only), a few tie dyed aprons with a clever applique, jumping jacks covered in vintage wall paper, bubble blowers, small bags of clay beads, maybe a stick horse or two.

25 years ago I was born barefoot in the Utah valley. I started inventing things to make life easier, and drawing was the best way I found to describe my inventions. My drawings turned into all sorts of things: stories, characters, designs and games, and I started learning from other people’s drawings and pictures of all kinds.
Today picture-making is still a new and fascinating world for me. My wife and little boy make it easy for me to enjoy things and they are huge supports for me and my work. If I’m not inside making pictures, I’m probably outside sucking in the Fall air with my family.
My paper cut-outs are parades of shape and colour. Playful portraits of animals, people and monsters decorate my cards and wall-pictures, making them perfect for gifts or roommates.
