Smell this...!

I got to spend this entire past weekend at Artscape and man did it smell good! Lucky for me I was stationed right next to Jussara from Spa Therapy Works and her amazing line of artisanal soaps!

Just read this description of her newest deodorant...

Delicious whipped, sugary pink buttercream frosting on top of a fresh-from-the-oven vanilla cupcake. It's girly, feminine and if you like vanilla, you'll LOVE this! This veggie deodorant works by neutralizing odor from perspiration and by destroying microbes with its antiseptic action. It doesn't interfere with sweating which is a natural cooling process, but it combats and kills odor-causing bacteria! What a sweet treat to your pits!!This paraben-free, alcohol-free deodorant comes in a practical 2oz stick container. And best of all...IT WORKS!

BEST is the Best!

Awww shucks...

Baltimore's Best Locally Made Crafts

"Our hearts swell with B'more pride whenever we log onto The Baltimore Etsy Street Team's site, baltimore-etsy.blogspot.com. This is a compilation of all the local designers and crafters who have pages on Etsy, the popular online marketplace. The talent is awe-inspiring. Some of our faves: TheBrokenPlate takes vintage and contemporary dinnerware and gives it new life as a necklace or a ring. And vwstudios, where images on clay are created using a process that includes photography, painting and printmaking."-from Baltimore Magazine's Best of Baltimore issue 2008

We were hoping you'd notice!!!

BEST on TV!!!!!

Baltimore Etsy's Jen Menkaus waxes poetic on Fox! What a fun crazy weekend we had!

Artscape...ya gotta go!

This Friday, Saturday and Sunday I will be unveiling a new line of cards at ArTsCApE! I am so excited! The new work is inspired by vintage patterns and designs seen in old wallpaper and tile... most likely a result of renovating our 1880's mill house! Stop by and see me and my friends who are all a part of Baltimore Etsy! We will be at the corner of Mt. Royal and Charles Street. By the way, did you see our write up in the Baltimore Sun?!!! Sweet!

MegaArt!

Stop by The Metro Gallery this Thursday and check out one very big new painting, (25.5 x 11.6 feet) by artist Alison Spain. I had a chance to photograph Alison in action and am excited to see the evolution of this gigantic work!


The opening is tomorrow, Thursday the 17th @ 7pm.
The Metro Gallery is located at 1700 North Charles Street in Baltimore.

Carpe Diem!

If this doesn't inspire you to enjoy love life and live in the moment, then I don't know what will!

Flower Power!

Just got these done...thanks to the guys over at Squidfire. And just in time for the EcoFest next week! Stop by and see some of BEST's participating artists! Tanks are available for purchase on my etsy site!
