baubles...

a gem hides in Stony Point....


This past Saturday, I attended the Seasonably Chic Holiday Affair at the ARTisan Café in Stony Point shopping center.  The shop was filled with goodies made by local artists and artisans who share the space.  It started as a six month pop-up, but it's here to stay.  I work at Anthropologie in the same mall, but didn't realize this wonderful shop was just around the corner, between Dillard's and Cinebistro (space 192A). 


 


As you can see from the pictures, there are all kinds of creative pieces from which to choose.   I brought home a knitted neck piece with a great button by Carolyn of Just in the Knit of Time.  Her husband carved the button.  




I tried to make a fair pictorial representation of the artists and artisans.  But in case I left anyone out, I will add a list of all the artists involved.  And I suggest that you check out this shop for yourselves. You may find that you become inspired as well!
