The holiday season is on its way, and I'm creating a list of my own picks for great holiday gifts for giving - each Friday I feature a creation by a local Rhode Island artist that is bound to suit someone on your list! We might be the tiniest state, but we've got a whole lot of talent!
Joanna of Joy in My Studio creates absolutely gorgeous hand-painted silk scarves and silk ties. The ties are a great gift for the men in your life. Here's how she creates them:"This one of a kind design was created using layers of custom-blended, professional dyes and hot soy wax, an all-natural material that is removed completely after steaming. The tie has been painted entirely freehand, making this a very unique work of wearable art." - Joanna
Joanna recently started making custom his and her sets - a silk tie for him, and coordinated scarf for her. Check out some photos on her flickr page, and contact her at joanna@joyinmystudio.com to place your custom order! Browse her full Etsy Shop too see all of her hand-painted designs - it's organized by color!
You can also check out Joanna's beautiful creations in person this weekend at CRAFTOPIA: Holiday Edition, Sunday from 10-5 at Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. I'll be there to check out the handmade goodies, delicious treats, and awesome music. Hope to see you there!
