Treasures to Come at Hidden House Artists' Sale 2011

Being a decorative artist is usually a solitary profession. Thank goodness for the old movies on TCM....

...Rolling Stones CDs....

....and my Audible audio book subscription.....



....to keep me company as I'm creating. Having an online shop on Etsy is a godsend, but sometimes you need to share and "exhibit" and mingle with flesh and blood people. Even better if those people are those you've known for years, and you add in wine and appetizers! For 12 years a group of artist friends and I have had an artsy gift sale in a private home in NW Portland that started as Keeper's Cottage and now has evolved into Hidden House.


 This year it is November 18th-20th and we've all been working hard to offer wonderful, hand-made and vintage treasures for us to give as gifts to those we love. Here are some new things from Velvet Leaf you'll see there- hope to see you! "Like" us on facebook to see what else is in store....
