Julia Jiannacopoulos - Uncommon Objects:

I make adornment for both the body and the home incorporating recycled and found objects. My art celebrates the glitter, funk and glamour of another era. Everything I make is one-of-a-kind for 2 reasons: I believe we have an emotional connection to recognizable objects/materials and when they are re-presented into unique items they illicit both joy and surprise.

Items for the body include; necklaces, bracelets, earrings and chokers.

Items for the home include; antique lamps w/ handmade shades, glitterati light plates, vases & frames, ruler-inspired wall hooks, and other small funk-a-rific items.

Sass Mama

more about Sass Mama:

Shelia Howe owner of SassMama Arts is an eccentric Light Being with many talents!

An Artist, Jewelry Designer, Reiki Master Teacher, Tarot card reader, Goddess and Devoted Mother.

A self taught artist of many mediums, I work with many used and found items. Revamping, recycling, reusing, revitalizing. The art falls under the categories of assemblage, collage, indie, and steampunk.
Recently, I started applying these principals to designing jewelry and now find myself addicted. I enjoy combining vintage pieces and parts with the new findings- never compromising the quality of a piece. Each design is One of a Kind, and will not be reproduced.

In addition to creating art and facilitating workshops, I am a Reiki Master Teacher offering classes and sessions. Also a gifted Tarot Reader available for personal readings, parties and corporate events.

Monroe Crochet Flower Ring- Green from muggytuesday

more about muggytuesday: MuggyTuesday is a partnership of two sisters, Margaret (aka Muggy, but only to her sister) and Sarah (aka Tuesday, to everyone but her sister), who live and craft together in Chicago, Illinois. We love our adopted hometown, and reflect that by choosing product names representing neighborhoods and streets in Chicago.
Margaret learned the traditional crafts of crochet, knitting and cross-stitch as a child and has been creating with varying levels of obsession ever since. Sarah came to appreciate these crafts later, having earlier explored interests in photography and ceramics. During our crafting sessions together, we began collaborating on pieces that combined our creative interests. We especially enjoy finding new and unexpected uses of materials and application of concepts.
We are inspired by the natural world and our everyday environment. We endeavor to make conscious choices with the materials we use for our handiwork. It’s our hope that the joy we feel when creating an item is shared by you when it arrives in your home.
