You'll Be Glad You Found Her!



Kacey from Found Studio uses the two things that she loves: Repurposing FOUND materials and painting to create her one of a kind eclectic paintings and prints.

She incorporates scrap vintage and new fabric along with book pages into her work. Found Studio uses the highest quality, archival and non-toxic acrylic paints and gel mediums she can get my hands on. Every layer has a coat of gel medium that seals the collage-work in a permanent way, making them durable and water/fade resistant.

Come see Kacey and her finds at Merry Mart on Sunday, December 2nd!

Block Party Press, Lot's of Pun this Holiday!

A love for puns and nature inspire Tamara from Block Party Press is a self-taught artist who had her "peanut butter in the chocolate" moment when she combined stamp carving, polymer clay and paint to create unique jewelry and accessories.

Nothing says "Olive You" like a martini olive with heart!


All of her pieces are handmade from start to finish. Block Party Press features all original designs that are carved into  stamps. Then she hand paints each piece and lovingly scratch away the paint to create her signature finish! Block Party Press also creates illustrations and paintings from recycled magazines and product packaging.
