Introducing you to - TerraOpheliaDesigns

Hi There.....Do you have a green thumb?

I don't that's for sure, I most recently destroyed a cactus.....not sure how but it died that is a fact.

So I am glad to hear that I am not alone, cause the shop owner of TerraOpheliaDesigns says she doesn't have a green thumb either ๐Ÿ˜€

Succulents are supposed to be easy to care for, or so they told her.

If you don't know what a succulent is.....here is what I found about it on the internet ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

They are plants that have some parts that are thicker and more fleshy. This way they can retain water in dryer places where water isn't always available.

So they told Claire, our shop owner that these beautiful, colorful little plants that live in the desert would be pretty hard to mess up.

But they were wrong.....at least what Claire's concerned.

So born out of her logic-defying ability to kill even the hardiest of desert plants, Terra Ophelia Designs is all about the beauty of nature hand-sculpted into permanently vibrant creations.

Terra is Latin for earth, and Ophelia is her desert-dwelling pet leopard gecko, who represents a gem of beauty in nature's harshest terrains. For her these both names represent the loveliness of deserts and the life that flourishes within them.

She hopes that her designs can represent a slice of that beauty for you in a form that isn't quite so short-lived as the succulents she cultivated in both live and clay form in her humid North Carolina home.

I think it's time now to show you some of her handcrafted creations she wants you all to enjoy ๐Ÿ˜Š

Introducing To You - Yaelsplace

Hi There.....Do you like cake?

I suppose almost anyone does. I do that's for sure. And this I do also has a lot to do with the shop I would like to introduce to you - Yaelsplace

This shop sells mostly handmade Wedding Cake Toppers. Yael, the shop owner, is a self taught artist. She has been experimenting with different types of arts and crafts for most of her life.

About 10 years ago she decided to put the focus on her art. But when she discovered polymer clay a few years ago she immediately knew it would become her passion. The idea came to her when her nephew turned 4 and wanted animals on his Birthday Cake. Since Cake Toppers are not common in Israel she couldn't find any at such short notice and had to make them herself. She made it from marzipan to start with, but that made her realize they might work in polymer clay too.

From that point on it was a very challenging journey with mistakes and frustration belonging to the territory. After a few years she felt her work had developed enough to open her Etsy shop.

It was a slow start and having an online shop is very challenging on so many levels. Her customers are a great source of inspiration. She loves working with brides. Hearing their new ideas and requests to create custom Wedding Toppers for them that are the perfect addition to their wedding cake.

So let me show you some examples to give you some inspiration.

Hope you like my blogpost.......Until next time.......Have a great day
