new & noted...

 personalized modern art for today's new & noted...

 StarArc creates personalized art based on each customers’ astrological birth chart




the centerpiece of each StarArc art print is the angular line-form pattern that exists in every astrological chart. Each customers’ line-form pattern and shape is unique to them.
the print is further personalized with 2 style choices, 27 color choices, 8 size choices, and a custom text inscription option.




All their prints are created on textured canvas printed with museum quality giclée printing process and mounted on 1.5 inch stretcher bars.




the simplified and contemporary geometric forms, color palette and composition  makes them modern in style, but they would work equally well in any space with a simple clean aesthetic.




the prints are available to be customized and ordered online at StarArc.com and they’re offering an introductory discount so you can order your StarArc print for as little as $168.

the company is planet friendly too..
The prints are created with environmentally friendly canvas, inks and stretcher bars. Additionally, they contribute 1% of all revenue to the 1% for the Planet cause.

definitely worth a go to for more info

have a great day all

favorite finds this week

for this weeks  favorite finds i decided to look for tiny things...all the better to fit into my packing  boxes,
pretty clever of me..don't you think?

and how clever is this;
for the nomadic writer,  the Little Nomadic Gnome. Measuring 1 x ½ ",  a tiny piece of reclaimed black leather once part of a vintage motorcycle muzzle. T. 30 sheets  of tea-stained Italian drawing paper. Hand-torn and stitched with archival linen thread,  with a  miniature authentic vintage skeleton key all in a wee wooden gnome box


a set of 2 wee bowls, also called "pinch pots" at  only 1"tall and 1 1/2"wide,   they are quite adorable


a delicate little Bavarian Bird Vase, perfect for a  flower stem or two


 tiny canvas print by tushtush, it amazes me how she adds such detail on a tiny canvas, love her work


 and for my readers who like things a bit larger...

an under the apple tree canopy bed - "Modern romantic Scandinavian design Sleep Therapy woodland fairy tale"  this beauty is all handmade to size... stunning....and it really does look like your sleeping in a fairytale.

 

 what's your preference, do you like things tiny or large? 

what do you have planned for this weekend ~  i'm in the middle of house projects, so i'll be working under layers of dust this weekend..i'll fill you in next week.

happy saturday

the portland connection...day 2

 portland visit day 2...

we headed out to visit some of portland's thrift shops...
and as usual  portland didn't disappoint ...

how perfect a vintage suitcase to carry home the vintage slide case, rolodex, lamp, coffee sack and model T headlamp.  yes, they'll be heading to the shop soon.

another delicious find for lunch,  they had great atmosphere & food...annoyingly poor choice in music
 


a little extra bonus, thursay was 1st thursday and many of the galleries held openings



there were so many talented artists, each with their own unique style...here's just a few to enjoy 







an amazing piece...all these words and phrases were sewn on paper


and here's a little video i took to wrap up the evening...enjoy!




hope your having a wonderful week too!
