I did my latest treasury challenge, and love reading all the other treasuries depicting stories of an vintage photo named "The Salesman" by Deb of StoriedEye Etsy shop. <br />
<br />
This is my treasury inspired by her print!<br />

When I went back to the nonteam challenge blog to see the winner of this challenge, Deb had shared her experience as a judge for this challenge and had the perfect ending story for "the salesman" print. <br />
<br />
I had to share this wonderful post from Etsy Treasury NonTeam Winner for challenge #111 ~ so wonderful!<br />

<br />
Well, I’ve been reading the words, “judging this was really hard,” or some variation thereon, every week for many many weeks now, never quite grasping the gravity of that statement. This team is AMAZING. These treasuries were OUTSTANDING. To narrow it down, even to fifty, was a challenge beyond words. After that, it was agonizing (in a good way). You are one stupendous lot of storytellers, wits, artists, vintage connoisseurs, and visionaries. I had so much fun — and Mindy, a thousand thanks for this opportunity to play and reciprocate, and for your good advice along the way. Thanks too to Sarah and the entire nonteam crew. I’ve had the smallest inkling this week of the commitment and elbow grease they demonstrate/invest every week, and I’m humbled.<br />
<br />
Before I announce the winner, I have one last story about the salesman to add to the colorful mix you’ve gifted me with:<br />
<br />
About two days into the challenge, I received a convo from Carol at<a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/platopooch" style="color: #2d8cbe; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">www.etsy.com/shop/platopooch</a>. We don’t know each other and have never corresponded in the past. She wrote, “Wow. This is strange. I saw this photo this morning and my mouth flew open with an, ‘Oh my god!’. I am pretty sure this is a photo of my grandfather, Edgar Allen Yelton. I have photos taken by him, mainly in Cripple Creek, CO in the late 1800's.”<br />
<br />
Needless to say, my mouth flew open in turn. I dug out the original photo--purchased for $3.00 at a flea market (where I get most of the vintage images I draw from in my collage work)--and sure enough, the name “Edgar A. Yelton” was written in elegant script along the base of the mat. Here is a copy of the original photo... <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://ny-image0.etsy.com/001/0/8559712/icm_fullxfull.23205708_5477wt2ix9k4s44004kk.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="color: #2d8cbe; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration: initial;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://ny-image0.etsy.com/001/0/8559712/icm_fullxfull.23205708_5477wt2ix9k4s44004kk.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0980392) 1px 1px 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(238, 238, 238); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0980392) 1px 1px 5px; padding: 5px; position: relative;" width="218" /></a></div><br />
So it looks like our handsome rake, who’s inspired countless tales of wanderlust, adultery, tenderness, longing, and debauchery this week, has made his long, winding way back where he belongs. I sent Carol and her family the photo this morning.<br />
<br />
Who says you can’t go home again?<br />
<br />
But now it’s time to pass the baton, and though I was charmed and amazed by so so many of these treasuries, this one, “The Time Traveler's Disguise,” by The Silk Moon, just hit home for me:<a href="http://www.etsy.com/treasury/NjMwOTE1M3wyNzIzNjUzMzE0/the-time-travelers-disgui.." style="color: #2d8cbe; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">www.etsy.com/treasury/NjMwOTE1M3wyNzIzNjUzMzE0/the-time-travelers-disgui..</a>.<br />
<br />
Congratulations, Natalie, and thanks for this gorgeous, inventive tale of intrigue and adventure. Enjoy your own journey!<br />
<br />
Thanks, everyone.<br />

Christine Ha @ Master Chef Season 3<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Have you watched this season's MasterChef? I am a fan of this show... my husband and I love to cook, and watching cooking shows on TV is something we really enjoy. This season, I am throughly inspired and humbled by a very special contestant, Christine Ha. She is a masterful chef, and happens to be blind.<br />
<br />
Watching Christine cook, I find bravery and an enlightened heart to do good things, to remain kind, and to stay positive no matter what happens. She may be blind, her world seems as colorful as anyone's, if not more. She is a fine example of showing how much is possible when you put your heart into something. <br />

As time pass, dress is not only confined to its basic function. It becomes a way to show fashion attitudes and improve the image of their figure. Put it simply, not everyone has perfect body shape and has no good control of weight but clothes they choose can make them look slimmer or heavier. Here are 7 tips for you to dress and make a slimmer impression on others.</div><h3 style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 20px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 20px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">1.

Clothing colors provide great variety of choice for you to build your shape image.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 22px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><em style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"><a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Health/opposite-loneliness-yale-daily-news-essay-marina-keegan/story?id=16459140" id="increase" style="display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" title="increase"></a></span></span></em></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">We don't have a word for the opposite of loneliness, but if we did, I could say that's what I want in life. What I'm grateful and thankful to have found at Yale, and what I'm scared of losing when we wake up tomorrow and leave this place.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">It's not quite love and it's not quite community; it's just this feeling that there are people, an abundance of people, who are in this together. Who are on your team. When the check is paid and you stay at the table. When it's four a.m. and no one goes to bed. That night with the guitar. That night we can't remember. That time we did, we went, we saw, we laughed, we felt. The hats.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">Yale is full of tiny circles we pull around ourselves. A cappella groups, sports teams, houses, societies, clubs. These tiny groups that make us feel loved and safe and part of something even on our loneliest nights when we stumble home to our computers -- partner-less, tired, awake. We won't have those next year. We won't live on the same block as all our friends. We won't have a bunch of group-texts.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">This scares me. More than finding the right job or city or spouse -- I'm scared of losing this web we're in. This elusive, indefinable, opposite of loneliness. This feeling I feel right now.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">But let us get one thing straight: the best years of our lives are not behind us. They're part of us and they are set for repetition as we grow up and move to New York and away from New York and wish we did or didn't live in New York. I plan on having parties when I'm 30. I plan on having fun when I'm old. Any notion of THE BEST years comes from clichéd "should haves..." "if I'd..." "wish I'd..."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">Of course, there are things we wished we did: our readings, that boy across the hall. We're our own hardest critics and it's easy to let ourselves down. Sleeping too late. Procrastinating. Cutting corners. More than once I've looked back on my High School self and thought: how did I do that? How did I work so hard? Our private insecurities follow us and will always follow us.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">But the thing is, we're all like that. Nobody wakes up when they want to. Nobody did all of their reading (except maybe the crazy people who win the prizes…) We have these impossibly high standards and we'll probably never live up to our perfect fantasies of our future selves. But I feel like that's okay.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">We're so young. We're so young. We're twenty-two years old. We have so much time. There's this sentiment I sometimes sense, creeping in our collective conscious as we lay alone after a party, or pack up our books when we give in and go out – that it is somehow too late. That others are somehow ahead. More accomplished, more specialized. More on the path to somehow saving the world, somehow creating or inventing or improving. That it's too late now to BEGIN a beginning and we must settle for continuance, for commencement.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">When we came to Yale, there was this sense of possibility. This immense and indefinable potential energy – and it's easy to feel like that's slipped away. We never had to choose and suddenly we've had to. Some of us have focused ourselves. Some of us know exactly what we want and are on the path to get it; already going to med school, working at the perfect NGO, doing research. To you I say both congratulations and you suck.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">For most of us, however, we're somewhat lost in this sea of liberal arts. Not quite sure what road we're on and whether we should have taken it. If only I had majored in biology…if only I'd gotten involved in journalism as a freshman…if only I'd thought to apply for this or for that…</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">What we have to remember is that we can still do anything. We can change our minds. We can start over. Get a post-bac or try writing for the first time. The notion that it's too late to do anything is comical. It's hilarious. We're graduating college. We're so young. We can't, we MUST not lose this sense of possibility because in the end, it's all we have.</span></div>

Dazedly and confusedly, I began trudging to SSS, probably the point on campus farthest away. Remarkably, it wasn't until I arrived at the door that I questioned how and why exactly my friends were partying in Yale's administrative building. Of course, they weren't. But it was cold and my ID somehow worked so I went inside SSS to pull out my phone. It was quiet, the old wood creaking and the snow barely visible outside the stained glass. And I sat down. And I looked up. At this giant room I was in. At this place where thousands of people had sat before me. And alone, at night, in the middle of a New Haven storm, I felt so remarkably, unbelievably safe.</span></div>

How I feel right now. Here. With all of you. In love, impressed, humbled, scared. And we don't have to lose that.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">We're in this together, 2012.

It's the first time I have taken an open challenge, showcasing my work to 52 or more professional jewelry makers. It's a little nerve racking and exciting for me because I'm self taught. Besides admitting in my mind I could be an artist more then a crafter, this challenge makes me realize my style of work and perhaps even opened-up my artistic perspective in jewelry making.<br />
<br />
This challenge consists of picking one color family and a given color palette to make accessories for the blog. Here's the link to the challenge info:<a href="http://treasures-found.blogspot.com/p/take-challenge.html" target="_blank"> http://treasures-found.blogspot.com/p/take-challenge.html</a><br />
<br />
For myself, I chose "pink". I'm not really a pink person, my favorite color is blue or teal, and most my bead collection I own are in hue of blues :D. So I picked Pink to challenge myself. I received an email with the palette challenge with my chosen color pink, and the theme to inspire the piece. I was smiling when I saw my theme :D<br />

<br />
Perhaps Erin from Tesori Trovati Jewelry (organizer of this challenge) found out my hometown, and gave me this theme - Singapore Brights. In any case, as a proud native of Singapore this made me smile and I really want to do this challenge proud. <br />
<br />
Alright without further ado, here's what I made :D<br />
Sing Singapore! Roar Lion City!<br />

I honestly had the hardest time thinking how I could represent Singapore in Pink! (T_T"). I stressed out a little until I found these awesome brass metal lion heads.... they look so cool and too fierce not to use. It became clear that I needed to celebrate Singapore's iconic symbol, the Merlion. The Merlion is a lion head attached to the tail of a fish and serves as the mascot for Singapore. Here's a picture of the majestic creature of Singapore!<br />

Under the skyline, I thought I must use blue to highlight the city, and all the greenery my beautiful country has. Not forgetting my challenge color Pink, I decided to use pink sequins to add the shimmer and sparkle the city is famous for! With the theme palette Singapore brights, I've gathered the following beads for my piece -<br />

I am so happy to be able to create jewelry that both my customers and their friends find beauty in. Here's the nice email she wrote:<br />

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #202020; font-size: 13px;">My coworker came to the office the other day wearing the most beautiful bracelet from your Wisconsin shop. Is there any way to contact the designer or buy one through you? It was a gorgeous beaded piece with a butterfly on it. Please let me know. It was truly stunning.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #202020; font-size: 13px;"><br />

There, I surprised Mark with a handmade mustache identical to what Magnum has for giggles. Ever since then I started making mustache on sticks and now into necklaces. <br />
<br />
I want to thank Hesley Harps for blogging about the hot pink mustache she got from the studio this summer. I thought I would return the favor and lead some fans to her page. (She's very pretty and cool...also an actress!!) Check it out ---> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 3px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 3px; font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><a href="http://hellogiggles.com/moustaches-a-love-story" style="color: #333399; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://hellogiggles.com/moustaches-a-love-story</a></span><br />

Here's some pictures of the mustache pieces, and I hope they make you smile. Custom orders available in variety of colors to pick from ---> see all my wool colors below. <br />

But they said when you are happy - time flies; and when you can't remember what happened at a party - it had to be fun --> (>_<) so yay.<br />
<br />
I have been working hard on creating jewelry using all sorts of medium and materials. My latest goal is to find success on my Etsy shop. I hope in time to come, I am able to feature many great work online and bring more fabulous artists to our customers. I appreciate your constant support to our studio, and will continue to bring our passion for art and music to the table. Hopefully through our little effort, everyone gets to see many other hardworking artists and their work. <br />
<br />
Since my active participation on Etsy, I have found many wondrous work. Here's some of them - incase you needed help looking for a special Christmas present (:<br />

Khamphian's designs will be highlighted on the runway <u>this Saturday</u> at the <b>Secret Garden Fashion Show</b>!! </span></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #2a2a2a; line-height: 115%;">Khamphian Vang is first and foremost an artist. Experimenting with a variety of art forms has led to her medium of choice, fabric. Her love of fabric started at an early age while watching her grandmother and mother sew <i>paj ntaub,</i> or flower cloth<i>, </i>which is a traditional Hmong textile art form. She loves the process of draping and manipulating the fabric. She works very organically, getting her inspiration from how the fabric behaves. Her background is in Theatre Arts & Costume Design where she learned to design with a purpose. Khamphian believes fashion is about personal style and individualism – “Each of us is a character. The clothes we wear reflect who we are and the life we lead.” </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: #2a2a2a; line-height: 115%;">Khamphian’s design vision focuses on comfort and ease without sacrificing style. She designs clothing based on how real women dress for their real, moving lives. “Fashion is our journey in clothes; it takes us through one stage of life to the next.” She designs for the woman that is versatile and embraces the duality of fashion and style, feminine/masculine, vintage/modern, soft/structured, varying textures and prints. In her Spring 2011 collection, she brings these ideals to life in bright and patterned pieces inspired by one of her favorite artists, Frida Kahlo:</span></span><br />

As you can see in the photos we have posted, her work is different and one of a kind, her specialty is apparel and wearable art. Jeanne lives and works in Wisconsin Rapids, WI, and her work will be showcased <b><i>on the runway</i></b> at the Secret Garden Fashion Show.<br />
<br />
A little background on this artist: Jeanne received a B.S. in Textiles and Design from UW-Madison, in addition to creating her own wearable art, she has taught many fiber art workshops over the years including workshops on weaving, art fiber doll construction and creating wearable art. <br />
<br />
As with our other featured artists, Jeanne does not limit herself to apparel and wearable art, she also makes very cool dolls! If you like what you see here, head over to her Etsy page to see more of her work: <a href="http://www.plummerlake.etsy.com/" target="_blank">WWW.PLUMMERLAKE.ETSY.COM</a> . She described her design style as "whimsical, colorful, eclectic; retro; deconstruction of clothing and reconstruction into new designs... I experiment with EVERYTHING when it comes to fiber arts!"<br />
<br />
What else makes Jeanne's wearable art so wonderful? Her pieces are re-purposed or up-cycled clothing and cloth, so not only are you wearing something beautiful, but you are also doing Mother Earth a favor by keeping the fibers out of a landfill! We are very excited to be able to share Jeanne's art with you all now and at the Secret Garden Fashion Show!!! Check out some examples below:<br />

<br />
As many of you know, we are working very hard to promote the Secret Garden Fashion Show on Saturday, May 28. We are very excited for this event, as it is going to be the grand opening of our new location (N2740 Hwy QQ, Waupaca 54981).<br />
<br />
The inspiration for the day is "Alice in Wonderland." Ever since childhood, I have been in love with the mystery of Wonderland. When I was young, I spent many hours pretending I was Alice and dreamed up many adventures to have in Wonderland with the White Rabbit (my grandmother, who was awesome enough to play along every day for years). I am thrilled to be a part of making Wonderland come to life right at Triptophonic Studios Memorial Day weekend! As many of you know, my friend Angela is so very creative, and I know together with her, Triptophonic is going to be decked out and you won't know you are in Waupaca anymore.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">The purpose of this show (and Triptophonic Studios' mission) is to promote independent artists and designers from around the world. In my two previous blog posts, I highlighted <a href="http://triptophonic.blogspot.com/2011/04/evangelione-handmade.html">Evangelione Handmade</a> and <a href="http://triptophonic.blogspot.com/2011/04/minifanfan-to-fashion-week.html">Minifanfan</a>, both very talented artists from Malaysia who will have their art on display at Triptophonic Studios.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">We will also be showcasing artwork at the show from Durra Hanna. Look for my blog post about her artwork next week. And of course we have more then just three artists to write about!! - SIX Weeks of endless features of all the artists and fashion designers we are going to have at <i><b>"The Secret Garden Fashion Show - Memorial Day Weekend Saturday May 28th!!" </b></i></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
