I love finding the perfect handmade thing for someone special.  These are a few of the gorgeous things I found this year.  Big thank yous to Omar, Jacqueline, Bethany, Denise & Paul and Tom for creating these great pieces.

My youngest sister and nieces got custom initial rings from maldonadojoyas.etsy.com.  He was lovely to work with and the rings are awesome.

My sister-in-law got this bowl from MorrisPottery for her birthday (in December).  She is devoted to her horses and I knew she would love it.

My geeky sister and equally geeky best friend each got Pixel People pattern by weelittlestitches.  One each Serenity and Princess Bride.

Andy got this beautiful beautiful glass shark from sanctuaryglass.  Did I say beautiful?  He wants to hang it in the window at his office, but then I never get to see it.

And finally, my daddy, the architect, got a blueprint tie from Cyberoptix Tie Labs.  He hates to wear a tie, but on those occasions when you really just need to wear one, I like for him to have something fun.
