Doan know about y'all but I doan buy too much from the innerwebs: Etsy, Ebay or their clones. For one thang? I'se afeared of paypal--have heard numerous horror stories of fraud from/ on paypal.
But sometimes I does buy thangs from blogger-folk. Yes, I knows some bloggers is also on the shopper/ buyer sites. But when ya can buy directly from the blogger, I'se happier.
Here is my newest order!
Annie Beard, aka, Edifice Rex, lives in Alabama--so first thang, she is a Southern lass. Next, Annie grows a garden an' that squares jes' right wif' me. On top of that, she is a lass among the lads--yup, she works construction. AN' fer another thang, she is buildin' her own abode--gotta luv it! (Check out her garden gate!)
But if that ain't enough talent, looky what a marvelous potter Annie is--so I ordered up two pieces what came last week. They's oven, an' micro, an dishwasher safe. I still ain't put them away in a cabinet cause they's jes' too purty an' I wanna look at 'em. Doan ya love that lovely brick/ terra cotta glaze on the casserole dish?
And the farm blue pie plate? Well, I done put that to use --good use: Chicken Pot Pie. Uncle pronounced it "plum fittin'."
See Annie's Pottery heah (Click). Oh, an did ya notice ANOTHER blogger's work on the wall in the background of the first photo? Shure ya did! It's one of Chickory's famous baby chick paintings. Find her work heah (click).
What treasures has any of y'all found to buy from your blogger travels? I'd love to know whose art/crafts ya' recommend.
