In my daily search and countless hours spent looking for fabulous handmade finds I often see these fun little jars filled with what I thought was grass. It is actually moss and is pretty much self-sufficient. You just mist it with water ever now and then. I love how magical they look and how this cute little jar brings the outdoors in. What a great housewarming gift this would make. I can imagine this in a kitchen window sill catching all the light from the morning sun or on your desk at work. This particular one is only $8.50 and has a tiny red ladybug inside. The "Grass" is Greener.jpg)

Let me start by saying that I am blown away by the beads this woman makes. They are so detailed, cute, and full of personality. She currently has two shops-her original shop and one for the beads that didn't quite make the cut but are still fabulous and lower priced. I chose one from this shop-a hard choice I must say. Blueberry the Cow was my winner. She is just "pinch your cheeks" adorable! If you can believe it she is only $5! She would be awesome on a necklace or bracelet. Maybe you aren't a jewelry maker-no biggie-find a bead you can't live without and I can make it into a custom necklace for you. If you have time check out both of her shops and be amazed at what this woman does- mini glass sculpture at its best.
