So, here's one to have some fun with....because it is tucked inside a little white box that just asks to "Open Me" It is a beautiful little ring created by Chantelle Tracy and you will find it somewhere inside SEASONS. Also you will find in SEASONS great Halloween decorations...so cute. Love, love the metal witches!!! You'll find more of Chantelle's art just across the street at Ebb Tide Gallery.

One of your favorite things is this woven sculpture by Sherry Mayfarth. She is our Joyful Basket lady and this is woven from cane and will look lovely hanging in your home. But, first find it somewhere hanging where the Wild Birds would like to visit.

Don't you just love this little hand cross stitched bookmark by Stacey Webber...("love", get it) Use it for your favorite books or as a gift with a wonderful book to someone special. Look for this bookmark at the Tides...a great place to go before you read your book...a warm, sunny deck just calling your name!

Let's welcome a new contributing artist to the blog. Craig Novinski is a talented potter and fine artist. Look for this piece of pottery at Bella Kitchen Essentials. While at Bella, be sure to sign up for their Sushi Class. Sounds delicious. Now, back to Craig, and to find more of his art head on downtown to Ebb Tide Gallery, where he shows his work.

This is a great art card, created by Dori Wheeler and yes, that is origami in the center of the piece. Be quick, be fast on this one...find it at Panera Bread. And find more of Dori's art at Ebb Tide Gallery.

These shoes are make for walking...so walk on over to Indigo Moon in UPTOWN...for great shoes, clothes and a piece of FREE art.
"Everyone looks at the world though their own unique window...just like you!"

Where ever your footsteps take you this weekend,
go with great joy and kindness to one another!!

We'd like to give a BIG WELCOME to Indigo Plum in UPTOWN. If you are looking for good for your feet, comfortable, sturdy shoes for men, for women....well you just got to go to Indigo Plum. Also check out their great clothing as well.
Never know where you are going to find those great collectible Historic Photos of Gig Harbor.

Here's another of those collectible historic photos of by-gone Gig Harbor. Got to read the info on the back of this one. Yes, you are correct, the photo shows the Rosedale Store....wonder where you will find this one and wonder what else you will find there.

All these historic photos are celebrating the Grand Opening of the Harbor History Museum on Sept, 18.....FREE to the public. BE THERE!!!!!
Whether you are looking for a cute sun dress to cool off, other great fashions and more.....Be sure to check out McBeckland's Ladies Boutique on Harborview.
"No better exercise for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up."
The beautiful painting is from artist Rebecca Westeren and from her Gallery For Art Sake, in the Finholm District. Lots of reasons to stop in McBeckland's. See you there!!!

Out for a walk? Stop in the place that is friendly to wild birds (get it!!!) and there, hanging in the sunlight is a beautiful and shining piece of art glass, just perfect for that sunny spot in your window. Judy Ugalde is another wonderful participating artist from Ebb Tide Gallery.
So, if you miss her glass at the place that it is now hanging...walk on over to Ebb Tide Gallery and see more of her beautiful glass.
If you do find this little apple hanging in the "special place", say a little thank you to the retailer for participating in the FeelGoodFreeArtProject, won't you?

FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK!!!!!

Where are you every Wednesday afternoon???

You could be at UPTOWN watching, admiring and learning.
Come and watch and learn how the artists do it. Come and watch and pick up your pencil, pen, drawing material and you can do it too.
It's called Drawing You In and is presented by the artists of the Peninsula Art League every Wednesday in UPTOWN thru Sept. 22; from 1 - 3:30 pm.
Artists are drawing from a live model....just bring your drawing materials and you can draw them, too.
Come, walk around and admire that people can see something and acually put it down on paper....amazing to me!!!!
