Sunshine!

We are now getting to the time of year when we have had enough of being snug inside looking out on snow drifts, grey skies and generally miserable winter weather.  Every glimpse of sunshine heralds a new gasp of joy!  The weather promises, though it does tease sometimes, to get brighter and warmer.  So what better way to celebrate and encourage the spring sunshine but by showing off items from some of our talented members?  Put on the shades and be prepared to be hot, hot, hot!!!

This will get you in the right mood!  A cheerful quilted fabric postcard called ‘You are my sunshine’ – remember the song?

Thanks to Attack of the Vintage you will find many more wonderful examples of her quilted postcards in her shop.

It’s hot out here!

This piece is done in the paper prayer format. The paper prayer was created by the Japanese to evoke health and well-being for the person for whom it was made.

Van Fleet Street Design is the place to find more ‘hot’ items

Orange Flower Folding Hat

Sometimes the sun, even at this time of year, will cause you to look for a little shade and what a pretty hat to do that with!  Look, it even comes with its very own zipper purse for storage.

One Dog Talking is the shop to visit if you like style and elegance.

Too sexy for the Beach

Now start singing… "I'm Too Sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my..." I won’t go on!  However, a girl still needs to look her best at the beach!

Laughing Otter Jewelry just knows what jewellery you ‘otter’ be wearing!!!!

Sunrise, Sunset print that really could be either time of day. Imagine sitting quietly slurping, sorry sipping a cocktail watching this sun slowly dipping into the sea.

Beth Peardon Prods has a great array of prints, cards etc in her shop.

Sunbird – you can tell the artist was really enjoying herself in the creation of this wonderful mixed media painting!

Sixsisters has an exciting way of depicting everyday subjects and yet making them so individual.  She shows a great empathy with nature in the portrayal of her art.

A large smiling sun window cling suncatcher

The sun is always smiling on the righteous they tell me.  However, who could resist this wonderful cling looking like real stained glass?

Clinging Images has a shop full of window clings of every shape and size. 

 

I could go on for ever on this happy sunny note but why don’t you search yourself and see what you can find amongst this incredibly talented group of artists on Etsy who call themselves the BBEST!
