I was meandering about my usual haunts, clicking on links until I found myself on EpheriellDesigns.com, where there was an interview with Melbourne, Australia artist Deb.

Her Etsy shop is presently stocked with all manner of shiny and wonderful jewelry- cetainly enough to keep the magpie in all of us content.

Sneak over to the section called Vintage Art Prints. There you will find the hidden treasures of this artist.The description says it all.

Nest – Vintage Art Print

This is a beautiful print of a vintage nest illustration. It has been printed onto a vintage Oxford Dictionary page, creating a unique and beautiful artwork for your walls.
The nest contains several sweet little eggs and, if you look closely at the dictionary page, you will see a definition of the words “nest” and “nestling” on the right hand side of the page.

The print is 5×7 inch in size and comes framed with your choice of a black or white photo mat. The finished size of the print and mat is 8×10 inches. Because the dictionary page is thin and delicate, the print has been backed with archival paper which matches the cream colour of the dictionary page. This print is perfect for nature-lovers or ornithologists alike.

The last photo is an example of how the art print will look framed and IS NOT included in this listing.
? PLEASE state clearly in the notes to buyer whether you want the white or black photo mat. ?

Each print comes wrapped in a clear plastic envelope.

Available on Etsy for A Most Reasonable $12.00 + $4 Shipping to USA

Nesting. Hmmm…

I wonder, could Lesli be suffering from the emotional flu? (Her oldest just moved to start college)

{wouldn’t you know, I just missed the wonderful giveaway contest at EpherialDesigns…}

Awkward name- yes.

But oh so unique!!

This husband-and-wife team – Joanne andamp; Tony Cheng – custom engrave a white  3-inch pebble with the name of the bride and groom and their wedding date.

More often than not, buying a wedding gift on a budget relegates you to the cheap kitchen appliances or , worse yet, some variation on a vase. andlt;andlt;Yawnandgt;andgt; As if you don’t run the risk of duplicating someone else’s gift….

Definitely not my style.

I would proudly present this engraved stone, wrapped in silk, as a  symbol of the couple’s relationship. “A rock in a sea of chaos”.

And, wow!, wouldn’t this make an uncommon and witty invitation for a small wedding or elopement, wrapped in a piece of paper with directions? Tied with a raffia bow! Too Cute… Too bad its just a little too expensive for a party favor….Maybe for a centerpiece?
