  26. Martianne Stanger, on May 1, 2009 at 2:35 pm Said:

    Creative, beautiful things. Tough choice. I’d have to go with #10 though. The frame must have taken so long to make – and lovingly so – and it would bring whimsy and beauty to almsot any home and office. I love it!

    There are a lot of nice things here. I like several of them and all of you put a lot of work into your creations but I have to go with #10. I like picture frames and the colors are beautiful.

  44. Sara Thompson, on May 2, 2009 at 2:28 pm Said:

    I like #7, the retro flower curtains by Beth Todd Creatz. I can just see them in a child’s room, a kitchen, bathroom or just hanging in a doorway. Very cheerful and “Springy.” This contest is a wonderful opportunity for hand crafter’s to show their many talents. Keep up the good work.

  45. Maria Pablo, on May 2, 2009 at 8:20 pm Said:

    I love #10, KellysClayCreations. I am a professional photographer in San Diego and I was coordinating my sisters baby shower in NYC. I wanted something special & I found Kellys website. She created a clay figurine that resembled my sister and I put the figurine on top of the baby shower cake.

    On the day of the baby shower in NYC, my sister was happily surprised & very happy to the thoughtful present. She bowed down and said, “Oh, look at the mini me”. The entire room was oohing and awing and laughing. Thanks to Kelly’s creative ability and vision, my sister had a beautiful cake & a memorable memento to remember the occasion. The clay doll will be placed in the nursery.

    We are all very delighted & I’ve passed Kelly’s creative vision to all my friends.

    In addition, Kelly’s professionalism and quick response to my detailed question made it easy to work with her.

    My hats off to Kelly.

  46. Barbara Turner, on May 2, 2009 at 9:27 pm Said:

  48. Janie, on May 3, 2009 at 7:28 pm Said:

  49. Molly Gilmore, on May 4, 2009 at 12:24 pm Said:

  70. Emily Mccaghren, on May 6, 2009 at 9:00 pm Said:

    #9- shawl- romantic- something to snuggle with a favorite book- reminds me of cooler days and knitting is such a wonderful craft- each stitch- careful to keep the pattern right- just blows my mind!
    I love knits- and etsy has certainly impressed me for quality of our Georgia girls:)
    Soon- I will be able to buy more as I intend for birthday presents to come from here! BUY Handmade- and BUY AMERICAN! Those who help others helping themselves deserve all the customes they can get!
