Tammy has several very special shop sections, the first I'll mention is Precious metal art.  You'll find very lovely cast metal flowers,  all carefully hand painted for a one of a kind look, like the red poppy shown.  Not only will you find the usual earrings and necklaces that you might expect, there is a pretty selection of floral hair pins.  Need a gift for Mom, but she doesn't like jewelry? You will find beautiful flower bookmarks i Tammy's shop as well.  And don't forget to check out the SALE section, with many great handmade creations from which to choose.

I think my favorite section is Tammy's original art.  She has talent for hand painted  components too.  Look at this beautiful wild flower bead she created for this bracelet, a true one of a kind creation!
