My studio will be on vacation from December 20th 2009 to January 7th 2010. Items can be purchased to reserve them as your own, but I will only be able to ship starting January 7th. For US customers that means the package will arrive around January 15th. So please do shop handmade and make someone happy... just be aware shipping will be delayed until the first week of January. Thank you for your continuous support!
Happy Holidays and a Very Happy New Year Everybody!
Yay! Vacation! Yay! Vacation! Yay! Vacation!
Yup, quite happy about it as you can tell :)
The only sad part is that I won't get to be with all the cool ArtFire friends I've made over these past couple months. But! I will be back January 7th for a fun-filled 2010! :)
Check the forums for new undiscovered studios, as well as for maybe-daily features. Although I am sure you will have plenty on your hands with all the cooking, and eating, and partying going on!
So enjoy your celebrations and be safe!
My best wishes for a fabulous 2010!
Love,
mv

My 2009 favorite Polyvore set
Thanks to Brass Buns, I have recently discovered Polyvore. Oh what fun! And so addictive!
I've only invested a few days so far, so I only have four sets built. Well, the year is coming to an end and I need to pick a favorite, right? :)
I think the set I like the most (so far) is the Capri Sunset Fantasy in Artfire Tones one. There's something about it that just makes me click on it every time I see the thumbnail!
Let's see if I can figure out the Polyvore embedding....
Wooo! It worked! But why is it showing only 5 items? Let me fix that manually...
Enjoy, and let me know what you think! (Click the checkboxes below to vote: first one for Cool, second one for Funny, third one for Interesting) :) :)

New article, yay! Easy Holiday napkin rings and ornaments.
My newest article is up! I made some cute napkin rings for Thanksgiving, so I've written a quick and easy HowTo expanded to cover all occasions, as well as ideas for Christmas ornaments, kids' bracelets, and other fun kids' crafts with ribbon and beads.
I am actually pondering making some Christmas ornaments with 45 beads for a larger diameter, and then creating spokes with silver plated wire or red and green string. It should be fun!
Check out the article and let me know what you think: How to make fun napkin rings for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other occasion. It was very fun to make the samples and to write the article! :)
The samples came out pretty cute!
Over and Out for now...

We have a winner!
Oh what fun it has been! The voting for the Favorite November Undiscovered Studios has just closed, and we have a winner! With so many wonderful studios awaiting to be discovered, it was very hard to choose a favorite. In fact, I think I favorited pretty much the whole list myself!!
62 fabulous studios were added / submitted to this ArtFire thread during the month of November. 24 studios had either had their first sale, or had been randomly featured on the daily Undiscovered Studio Thread And Blog by the end of the month. So what to do for the 38 studios that had not been featured yet? Let's have a poll for the top favorite Undiscovered Studios! A poll where everybody WINS! :)
With 57 votes at the end of the poll, at least 57 kind people have visited these studios and appreciated their beauty. 4 studios have even had their first sale during the poll! :) My heart fills with happiness to see such great participation in a purely RAK poll, with no giveaways nor prizes. Aren't ArtFire artisans the greatest?
I personally have had so much fun, I think this should be a monthly event. What do you think? :)
Of course, the next one will be better! We have all learned a lot during this poll. The next one will start the time-lapse at 0, to really see how cool it looks when people vote. It really looks like an MP3 player with all the bars going up and down as people vote for their favorites. It should probably be longer too, like a week. And maybe have a shorter list :) 38 WAS probably a bit too much for most people to go through.
So if you have ideas for the next polls, let me know! You can comment here, or you can send me an email too! All feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Hahahahaha. Are you wondering yet WHEN I am going to tell you who the winner was? I think everybody won, but I'll tell you in a bit who had the most votes :)
I would also want to post a video of the poll time-lapse from 17 votes to 57 votes. It will take a while to create and align all the frames, but check back in a few days for a cool "See how your votes count" animation. For now, here is the one created half-way through the poll:
Pretty cool, huh?
Yes, it does look like an MP3 player :)
So since I will probably remove the poll in a few days, here are the winners, to be saved here for posterity:

November Favorite Undiscovered Studios Poll Archive
This is an archive of the Undiscovered Studios Poll for the month of November 2009. Everybody was a winner! :)
Hi!
This is an opportunity to make next week's features less random, while at the same time being able to show your appreciation for the beauty to be found around ArtFire!
The list below was taken from this forum post (click), and was last updated December 1st.
If studios have their first sale during the poll, congratulations! You can still vote for them. The features are reserved for studios with zero sales on the morning of the feature :-) This is why you can vote for more than one studio. You can still show your appreciation for your favorite yet also help a studio without a sale.
Have fun, tell your friends, and let's see how this goes! :) Looking forward to the final results, the evening of December 6th!
Thank you for voting!
Love,
mv

Vote for your favorite undiscovered studios!
Hi!
This is an opportunity to make next week's features less random, while at the same time being able to show your appreciation for the beauty to be found around ArtFire!
The list below was taken from this forum post (click), and was last updated December 1st.
If studios have their first sale during the poll, congratulations! You can still vote for them. The features are reserved for studios with zero sales on the morning of the feature :-) This is why you can vote for more than one studio. You can still show your appreciation for your favorite yet also help a studio without a sale.
Have fun, tell your friends, and let's see how this goes! :) Looking forward to the final results, the evening of December 6th!
Thank you for voting!
Love,
mv
