Metalsgirl - handmade sterling silver jewelry with funky infusion of herbs and resin for unique colors and textures.  Austin, Texas artist Laura Gibson lends her unique eye for color to the beauty and sass of sterling silver, copper, and other metals.

When I was a little girl my great grandmother made the most yummy home made pies.  When she made the crust she would cut the excess dough from the edges and roll it out, sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar, roll it up, and bake it.  When it was ready she would slice them up - she called them goodies and they were (and still are) one of my very favorite things!   Accordingly, the word goodie is now associated with all things fabulous!  So, here are a few of my "goodies" that I would love to share with you!

Looking for a gift for your best friends kids , niece, nephew...any hip kid?  Look no further!  Kathleen McTee's kiddo clothes have been a staple in my Christmas buying for years now!  The quality can't be beat and they are cool to boot!  And if that's not enough you get the joy of knowing you are supporting an artist, not some big box store!  Yeah Handmade!

www.lawlessrevowear.com  - Talk about ORIGINAL!  These bags are sooooo cool and funky and super well made!  Plus Milinda is awesome!  I have a bright red bag with a reindeer on it and I get compliments on it everywhere I go.  She's got all different sizes and even wallets.  Check 'em out!

www.kimmaguirephotography.com - are you getting engaged?  are you planning a wedding?  in need of a photographer at all?  Here you go!  Kim's work is amazing!  She has a very story-telling way of photographing an event or even just your kids playing in the park.  If you're looking for the posey-posed, everybody-line-up-and-say-cheese pictures - maybe she's not for you - but if you want REAL emotion, REAL memories of actual moments from some of the most important days of your life - she's the photographer for you!

www.bluedogrescue.com - Okay, this one is pretty personal to me.  Myself and a few other folks who think life is pointless without a dog started this rescue group back in 2000.  If you have ever wanted to volunteer, make a difference in some way - check out Blue Dog.  Maybe we can't save them all, but for the ones we do save it means absolutely everything.

www.bolsabonita.com - Ummmmm, what can I say, these are the MOST fun purses you will EVER see!  Yes you can go to the mall and get a purse that nine bajillion other people have - but seriously, why would you when you can get one with Magnum p.i. on it?  Or Mr. T? Or Burt Reynolds with an actual 3-D moustache!  It boggles my mind!  Check them out - you will find one you just have to have!  Or, if you are like me, 7 or 8 that you have to have!

www.caseywoods.com - If you are on this page you have obviously seen the super-cool, way-fantastic photos of people modeling my jewelry.  Tada!  Meet Casey!  She has an amazing eye for what will show off the focal point of the picture.  From my jewelry to penguins in Antarctica her pictures are filled with emotion and meaning.  They are Art!
