Brides to Be

Spring and Summer are popular for weddings.
Traditionally, June has been the most popular choice; which is where the term "June Bride" came from. Lately, however, July and August have been catching up with June as the most desirable month to get married.

Summer months are well liked for a number of reasons: Great weather, larger numbers of outdoor venues available, and its often easier for guests to attend during common vacation times.

Whichever month you choose, you want your day to be special.
For Brides planning your perfect day, I've added a new Wedding Section to my shop.

Pearls are always a classic for weddings and I have a nice selection to choose from as in this lovely pair of pearl earrings...


or this elegant necklace...


Also, I've added something new this season; colorful crystal hearts in popular wedding colors.

If you're looking for something special for your bridesmaids, make it easy on yourself with this wedding necklace set. It can be personalized for your wedding colors.


Each handmade jewelry piece comes ready for giving with it's own gift box and ribbon.

Do you have a special color combination you'd like to match? Send me a message at my Etsy shop and we'll create something for your wedding day.

Thanks for stopping by!

ArtistiKat Has Grown Up

Well, sort of.

My business and jewelry cards have a new "grown up" look.

I've retired my beloved "ArtistiKat" kitty. She's being replaced with a more stylized, simple design.

Over the next few months the ArtistiKat will be slowly changing over to a more grown up K Davis Studios name.

Here are some before and after pics of the old design verses the new.

Hope you like them.

The New K Davis Studios Design and logo.

The old ArtistiKat design.

My Etsy Shop and ArtFire Shop will look the same, but you will see a gradual transition to the K Davis Studios name in the future.

Hope you like the new logo.

Thanks for stopping by.

WOW Wednesday Gifts

Welcome to WOW Wednesday!

The day before Thanksgiving; time to spend with loved ones and give thanks for making it through another year. I know I'm thankful for the many blessings we've had along the way.

The day after Thanksgiving also starts off the very hectic shopping season with Black Friday in the brick and mortar shops and Cyber Monday on-line.

Why not do yourself a favor this year and save yourself the hassle of dealing with the crowds and take a peek at the talented artists on-line. Your gift will most certainly be prepared with care, and will be much more unique than the mass produced items you'll find in the mall.

First on the list is this charming hand blown Glass Angel from AJ Jewelry Designs.
Each little angel is a one of a kind piece of art.
I love the way her skirt flows out around her. Lovely!

Glowing Sun Goddess Earrings by Girl Loves Glitter.
The stones are a beautiful clear white topaz. The gold you see is actual 23k yellow gold set under the stones. Gives it such a luminous effect. Definitely a keeper!

For the bath/ spa lover, you can't go wrong with these incredibly unique Amethyst Soaps by AmethystSoap.
When I first saw these I thought "what a lovely piece of amethyst!" I was blown away when I realized they were soaps. Certain to make your giftie smile.

For the book lover, here's a cute little Book Ornament by Pease Blossom Studio.
There are actual pages in this book ornament that would be perfect for writing a special note to your special someone.

Shop handmade this year; you'll be glad you did. You can also feel good knowing that you've supported a handmade artist.

WOW Wednesday/ Thursday.

Wow! I'm a day late... I guess WOW Wednesday became WOW Thursday for this week only.

I blame it on my inability to make a holiday header for my ArtistiKat and ArtFire shops that I'm satisfied with. I keep tweaking and tweaking but just haven't gotten "it" yet.

Speaking of holidays, the Christmas holidays are almost upon us. I know I'm not prepared; how about you?
Thought it might be helpful for the next few Wednesdays to focus on some gift ideas.

Its a safe bet that buying handmade will WOW that special someone on your list since it was made with care and attention and you certainly won't see it in bulk at the department stores.

So, here we go:

Silver Pearl definitely gets WOW points for her unique design. I have been drooling over these ever since she listed them. So clever, and definitely unique. She's got them in other gemstones as well.

For the owl lover, the most adorable little Santa Baby Owlet by WoolCrazy. Who could resist that sweet face? I love to scope out her shop, every little owl seems to have its own personality.

Just had to stop and look when I saw this tree by Gary "Wiz" Burns. Perfect for the tree lover, art lover, or anyone who likes a unique piece of craftsmanship.

Love this bowl by Makye77! So awesomely striking; it caught my eye in an instant. It's a safe bet that it will do the same for your giftie (is that a word?).

Hope you like this week's WOWs.
To snag these lovelies, just click on any of the photos to take you right to their shop.

Remember, if you see something that you think is a Wow, or would love to see your item here, just let me know.

Have fun!
