 Cherry Red Soft Winter Scarf cs0118

Product Details:  Indulge yourself with this soft cherry red thick winter scarf, this isn't your typical thin scarf. Hand crocheted with soft bulky weight acrylic yarn with a nubby texture, this carefully hand made scarf is made to keep the winter chill out.   This great scarf measures 6" x 60" not including the 7" fringe on both ends. 
Classy with a black or gray coat.  
I recomend hand washing, squeeze out excess water after rinsing, (no wringing please) wrap it up in a towel ( yeah, just like you do with your swimsuit) and then lay flat to dry.
Thanks so much for dropping by and have a great day.

 A Horse of Different Colors of Course Hand Quilted Hand Beaded ACEO aceo0110

Product Details:  A Horse of different colors was created  with thoughts of one of our favorite movies.  This hand quilted, hand beaded ACEO depicts familiar scenes all wrapped up in a 3 3/4" x 2 3/4" ACEO, a bit off from the traditional 3 1/2" x 2 1/2" ACEO's.  Art Cards, Editions and Originals are an affordable way to own a piece of original art. 

Hand beaded and hand quilted using a variety of glass seed beads, a vintage crystal( guess who this stand for!), acrylic flowers,crocheted chain,  a piece of confetti, and of course the horse of many colors hand painted acrylic button.   Made with 2 pieces of complimentary green fabric with a very low loft batting inbetween. 
A fun little piece to create and for you to enjoy.

Besides yarn and bead work, Kris also works in stained glass.

What Kris says about her shop Reflections By Lisianblue

"Each  stained glass wind chime and  hand painted ornaments are carefully designed and  hand crafted with the idea that they will be one of a kind creations,  and will not be reproduced.   The small fetish bears and chili sun catchers  are the only items that are reproduced, hand cut one at a time.  Depending on the glass even these can become a unique creation, as the  striated and mottled glass is never the same."

Some of Kris' stained glass works.

SW Geometric Hand Painted Ornament go0138

Product Details:  Turquoise and Candy Apple red mingle with emerald green and a spot of yellow while opaque white adds the details on this unique hand painted southwest design geometric ornament.  This 2 1/2" tall reclained silver lined ornament gives the tranparent and iridescent paint a certain glow.  After the original paint has been carefully cleaned off, I have hand painted it with quality durable glass paints,  Transparent red, green and yellow, with iridescent blue that is more turqoise than blue, and the details are painted with an opaque white. 
An original artistic one of a kind glass ornament makes a wonderful gift for the ornament collector or someone you know that you  just don' know quite what to give them!  Especially for the Southwest design lover.
Each ornament is nestled in it's own special hand crafted box, with like colors and theme, then surrounded with layers of bubble warp and mailed in a sturdy cardboard box to ensure it's safe arrival at it's new home.  Mailed asap (within 48hrs or less) after payment clears PayPal.  Please return to product page to complete transaction.

Hand Made Icy Fern Stained Glass Tetrahedron with Crystal Beads

Product Details:Small to larger,  clear & iridscent, new and vintage crystal beads are contained in this hand made icy fern stained glass tetrahedron pyramid. 
Use it as a paperweight,  a unique sun catcher on a window sill,  stress releiver when you gently shake the beads, turn it over & look through it and breath deep...................................
I have hand cut the 4 triangular pieces, ground and wrapped with copper foil tape and soldered it all together with silver colored solder.   Has been trough several cleanings and polished with a bit of liquid car wax.
Cleaning:  Please do NOT submerge.  Spray a little vinegar water on a soft cloth (old t-shirts work great)  and wipe clean.  Occasional (every 6 months or so) polishes with liquid car wax is great for keeping the solder shiny.
This lovely tetrahedron  measures  a bit over 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"  and comes in it's own handcrafted box shown.  If you would like a different box, such as a sold color, no problem, just let me know in message to seller through PayPal or through the shop here. 
Have a small keepsake you would like enclosed in a tetrahedron pyramid?  Contact me and we can discuss the details.  Different sizes available.
