Allyson Mellberg

Happy Friday! Here's a sampling of work in several mediums by Allyson Mellberg. I believe the prints are collaborations with her husband, Jeremy Taylor, and many of the soft sculptures were inspired by his drawings. They are a mixed-media dream team! There is a really great interview with Allyson on My Love for You is a Stampede of Horses. xo

Wreaths Gone Wild

I just added two twig wreaths to my Etsy shop that are packed to the gills with vintage and antique millinery goodness. A very kind fairy-flower mother of sorts recently gifted me an abundance of these old treasures and here they are ready to be passed on yet again- thank you, Sweet Sally! These have given me some ideas for some crazy brooches too- would you wear one? Amy Z. once told me she would wear one of my wreaths as a brooch if she could- I should have picked up on that sooner! xo

harem6

You know I love me some art dolls and peculiar mixed media! I am intrigued by the imaginings found in the collaborations of two young Romanian artists, Ildiko Muresan and Flavia Marele who call themselves, Harem6. Idliko created the collages you see below and the pair of them collaborate on the handmade dolls. I found their work thanks to Flickr. {Blog}{Etsy}. xo

Tundra Dear

I'm charmed by the storybook and woodland elements in the handmade jewelry by Tundra Dear. I especially love raw and cloudy gemstones paired with bronze or aged cast metal pieces that appear to be relics from antiquity. How sweet are her home, bird, fox and luck themes?! xo
