Meet our new members! October 2013 part 1

Hope you're ready for some great new member shops!  There were so many great ones that I have to split it up into 2 posts.  We certainly don't want to overwhelm our readers with so much wonderfulness at once!  As always, our members are artists, crafters, and creators from all around the Hudson Valley and I hope you'll give them a warm welcome.

Made with Love super sampler by Made With Love

First, I've got for you a member who actually joined a few months ago but sadly got left out, Made With Love.  Michele Tomasicchio creates scrumptious body lotions, potions, and butters in New Paltz.  All are made with natural ingredients and without chemicals that could cause harm.  A very welcome (if belated) hello to you!

Navy waxed canvas tote with leather by Lark Practical

Lark Practical makes some wonderful leather creations in Rhinebeck!  They have everything from bracelets, wallets, to that lovely tote you see.  All made with high quality materials that will age wonderfully as you take them through life with you.  Great to have you!

Moonbeam Blue Pendant by RGClayDesign

Roberta Green of RGClayDesign fires and assembles her work in Warwick.  She specializes in wearable art making them in clay along with fused glass and other beads.  Each creation is one of a kind and truly lovely.  Welcome to the team!

The stargazer's mirror by hArtandSoliMprints

hArtandSoliMprints is run by Vito and Claudia, who also work in Rhinebeck.  They paint and charge unique abstract paintings with healing as well as other intentions to help whoever receives one of their art works.  This truly one of a kind process has created some gorgeous artworks, if I do say so myself!  Much light and love to you, too.

Organic Romance Tea by TeaandSensibility

TeaandSensibility is possibly my favorite new member in this batch (what can I say? I adore tea!).  Jules blends her creations in Maybrook.  She offers Organic teas and all the accessories you need to enjoy it including teapots and infusers, I can almost smell it from here.  Hope you like it here!

Well, that's all I've got for this round, check back for part 2 where I'll feature 5 more awesome new member's.  Until then, I hope you'll stop by some of these shops and welcome them. Hey, they might just be your neighbor!

Enjoy!
