Michigan Artist Peacása

We were first attracted to the Petoskey artist Peacása by her whimsical greeting cards. Then we found out she also does pottery and jewelry. Her real name is Deanna Hergt Willmott and her artwork is adorable.

Voilà Boutique in Grosse Pointe Farms

Oo la la! There is a trendy new boutique in Grosse Pointe Farms run by two charming, chatty little French ladies, Carol and Pascale. Voilà Boutique is a cute little shop on Mack filled with unique clothes, bibelots, accessories and decorative bric-à-brac. With an eye for flair and joie de vivre, branches act as racks for their hanging items. Magnifique!

Robin Satterthwaite Jewelry

The artist Robin Satterthwaite loves dancing and tries to convey the movement and grace of dance in the jewelry that she hand makes. She lives in Douglas where she creates her bijoux, but you will find her whimsical pieces all over the United States. Her company, Robin Goodfellow Designs, which she owns with business partner Julie Lefler, is located in Saugatuck. Good Goods in Saugatuck features Robin's beautiful designs. They would like us all to "wear the dance of the jewelry"!

Outrageous Art by Kimberly Arden

Do we love to wear our art? Especially when it's from Michigan! Kimberly Arden, professional artist in Temperance, makes some beautiful jewelry pieces and also teaches how to create them using polymer clay at the Monroe Community College Whitman Center in her town. Her memory wire bracelets are cool, too. We met her at the Ann Arbor Art Fair, but she'll be at Birmingham's Art in the Park Sept 25-26.
