color is the connection

Tucked away in her Tel Aviv studio, Leah Lerner designs and crafts her beautiful leather handbags. 

  


elegant clutches and pouches...

...in a wonderful array of colors, some embellished with her original screen printed designs.

I love these metallics...

...and her large totes will handle just about everything!


You can see more of Leah's colorful bags in her etsy shop.
Go crazy!


And across the ocean from that sunny studio, to an apartment in Queens, New York, is another artist who loves color...



Gwen Meyerson's colorful cityscapes and figurative paintings truly capture the activity of the city and the people in it.

 In Gwen's etsy shop, you'll find original art as well as prints and notecards, all alive with color!

Scenes from around the US, Gwen works in several mediums,


but always, her focus is places and people... all in glorious color! You can purchase your own masterpiece here!

Spotlight on Dual Chocolate


Eslin of dualchocolate on etsy describes her work as "natural vegan handcrafted crochet jewelry accessories and toys." 




A few fun facts about Eslin, she grew up in Costa Rica, and has a Fine Arts background. And she's been on etsy since 2005! Since the old days!  



Not such a fun fact, she was adversely affected by hurricane Sandy and has only recently gotten her shop back up and running...



dualchocolate uses only the highest quality natural fibers

What child wouldn't delight in one of these?


And for those of you with mothers... well, Mother's Day is right around the corner...


and something from dualchocolate is an elegant choice!





hey, gift certificates are available!
