Mankato Arts Emporium

Original Artwork painted on cardboard , so many ways to recycle… so little time.

I loved making this piece. Handmade cross-stitched art framed with a vintage recycled frame. It’s been loved in my home for years, perhaps it’s your turn to enjoy….

These are a big hit! Made from recycled materials, and cactus from local Mankato greenhouses….. buy local is how we shop also….

It’s early December and I’m snacking on walnuts when the perfect shell is in my hands.

Needless to say I went right to the craft table and created this little beauty.

The fun of picking a perfect tree, bringing it home, and adding trimmings captured in a walnut…..

Often I am asked for replacement dollhouse furnishings customized for the customer with patterns and colors, or sometimes simple plain sets too.

Anyone can buy replacement parts online these days, however not handmade one of a kind sets…
