unique LA - spring 2012

oh snap studios

those of you that know me are familiar with my love for all things crafty.  i try to get up to LA for the big shows as often as possible.  many times i end up having reserve duty or no one that wants to come with me.  this past weekend i am happy to say i had two lovely ladies join me for unique LA!  we spent the afternoon enjoying good company, people watching, lots of free samples, and a fun DIY project with the queen of DIY, Jenni of I Spy DIY.  i love her blog and she's such an inspiration for creative souls.

i bought a few prints like this one to frame

baobab tree - human tree robot

wood ties by wood thumb (all made from reclaimed redwood trees)

awesome smelling soap and a great cause

there really was too much goodness to share.  you'll just have to join me for a future one or check out a similar show where you are!  you may be amazed at the talent you find and even get a little inspired yourself...
