Wednesday Welcome: KMTStudio44

Each week I'm using Etsy's Pounce feature in order to discover new items "from undiscovered shops waiting for their first sale" as the Etsy site states. This week's welcome is extended to KMTStudio44 in Berks County, Pennsylvania. Here is a peek at the wonderful images Karin produces by using postage stamps to create larger works of art (the stamps, after all, are already works of art!). I'm partial to the first one I've shown here; I was born in Washington, DC and grew up nearby in Bethesda, MD. Now my husband and I are settled in Northern Virginia and we can take the kids and enjoy an occasional day trip into our capital city.

Wednesday Welcome: First Class Mail Art

Each week I'm using Etsy's Pounce feature in order to discover new items "from undiscovered shops waiting for their first sale" as the Etsy site states. This week's welcome is extended to First Class Mail Art. The mail art pins in this shop are made with stamps from many countries and include a wide variety of images. Who knew a postage stamp could be turned into such a nice piece of jewelry?!
