I love the catalogs, too, which are great to use for art journals and collage. I have only bought one candle from Anthropologie-the rest is just dreams.....<br />*Sherri*Sherrihttp://www.floribelle.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556829785358900382.post-29586948158220713432010-01-20T22:15:11.677+00:002010-01-20T22:15:11.677+00:00Hi Lisa!

Art has most definitely healed and uplifted me in such a profound way particularly as a single mum, and I love hearing stories of people who have re-discovered their creativity and acted on it!<br /><br />Here's to creativity for all, and if you know anyone that may like to apply for the grant - do send them over :)<br /><br />Your blog is lovely and your work so reasonably priced!!!!!!

Even if I could afford those prices, I'm damned if I'd pay them!

Items made in India can be exquisite, but when you imagine an Indian sweatshop and the workers who probably get paid practically nothing, it takes the charm off. And it happens all over the world, I'm not singling out India.<br /><br />I've never been in an Antropologie store. Don't have one here in our little town, but I know exactly what you are talking about. I agree with you - Etsy has some amazing bargains! I'm constantly in awe and love to shop on Etsy!

Perhaps their products are not all made in India...It always gets me when things made, and designed, in India or other low-cost labour countries sell their wares for an exhorbitant price. I am on the Dottie Angel challenge for 365 days anyway - give me a good flea market rummage anyday.Angehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02255310309447767848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556829785358900382.post-4978141767157866152010-01-19T22:57:07.453+00:002010-01-19T22:57:07.453+00:00lovely piece of writing.

I wonder if the creators of these beautiful goods are being paid inflated prices too. How much more fun (if time consuming) to collect loved bits or create your own.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18410318976755292700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7556829785358900382.post-14333971067288619802010-01-19T22:22:40.579+00:002010-01-19T22:22:40.579+00:00What a wonderful sense of wit and humour you have!...What a wonderful sense of wit and humour you have!
