Neptune Glassworks {lighting}

 

In my line of work you come across so many amazingly talented people.  I met Uri several years ago at the flea market in Pasadena, when we got to talking I convinced him to make me some custom lights for my master bathroom, which I was remodeling at the time.  They are dreamy and my all time favorite pieces in there!  Just last night I was looking for some interesting lighting for a client and remembered how amazing he is as an artist and that he had started his own company - Neptune Glassworks. 

While searching his site I thought it might be a great source to share here.. the lighting is some of the most beautiful and delicate I have ever seen, all the while it has that little industrial edge that I love.  What a gift to be able to create like this!

Pattern Play {Artwork by Julie Abijanac}

 

Julie Abijanac's pieces are a wonderful mix of organic pattern that I adore.  What an amazing statement these would make in any space.  I love the soft lines and depth, they would make amazing fabrics, don't you think?

Horse art....

 

As I am sure you know I have a weakness for artwork with horses.  I saw these new pieces from Lisa at Kiki and Polly on line I was thinking how cute they would be in a job... love them.  But I was thinking also that there must be more horse art lovers out there like me.  So here are a few of my favorites.  I like to share!
