OvidiOart combines Friendly Plastic with Artful paintings

Tuesday, September 14th, 2010
Another email I would like to share today:

Dear Linda Peterson,

I've been reading your blog for a few months now and I really love your finds.

I'm writing because I think my work would interest your readers.  Here's a link to my favorite item.  http://www.etsy.com/listing/51508191/art-necklace.
I started making my art ornaments and necklaces when my mural business slowed down.  I play around with friendly plastic, prints of my original paintings, wire, beads, gold leaf and even paint on the friendly plastic.  I get lots of compliments when I wear my necklaces!  I am having so much fun with this that I signed up for 2 craft shows in the fall and I have an etsy store.
Thanks for your blog and for supporting independent artist like me!
Kari

 Take a moment to peruse her store!  Thank you Kari for contacting us and sharing your new love of Friendly Plastic!
