Good Artisan's; Great Art

I've hinted on this blog about the (allegedly) insane woman from Texas slandering good artisan's all because she was called on point for selling other artists' beads as her own. She continues this mad process and if you read her words, any sane person can see what's really up. And since she was kind enough to list everyone in one place, I thought I'd pass it along for what it truly is.... Fantastically talents artists who I'm sure could use a little love!

I know some of these folks personally and many more through internet. And while I have not dealt with all personally, they ones I have, have enough talent in their pinky to make someone green with envy. Check them out and give them some love!
