“Exactly what I wanted!”

Beautiful colors and the perfect size for my wall. I was a bit worried about how the 3D figures would survive the mail, but a little adjustment before mounting perked them right up.

“brings me joy”

I love colors and flowers so I purchased this garland on a sale. It has exceeded my expectations. Almost entirely hand sown with flowers intricately done. No two are the same and each has a unique center. A wide variety of colors. I hang garlands vertically or drape along my piano top or mantel but for weeks I coiled this one in a circle in the center of my dining room table. No fresh flowers needed, but when I bought some I coiled the garland at the base. Very, very cheery.

“I fell in love with the dog on this clutch!”

The detailed and lovely work Maria did on this clutch made me fall in love with the dog she portrays, and wish I could bring it home. Her skill and imagination in doing the applique are very apparent, and I see from looking at her wall hangings that she is a very talented and extra special artist. I will be purchasing more of her special work. Thank you Maria for creating one of my very favorite things.
