Amy Arnold {Wisconsin} is an artist whose medium is wool, whose method is sewing, whose madness is Peepwool. ‘The peepwool are an expression of my inner world and my experiences as a mother-among other identities-and reflect my experiences of intimacy, separateness, bewilderment, frustration, wonder, and joy. Yet the peepwool clearly have identities and agendas all their own.’

The idea behind Rainbow box | flickr, came from playing card suits -
spades, hearts, diamonds and clubs.
Peggy’s {Taipei, Taiwan} creations show a good sense of humour and great personality.

Tokyo Bunnie runs an art blog and a design company Bored Inc. comprising of a mother and daughter design team. For nine years, they have been “behind the scenes” creating art for manufacturers and the entertainment industry. Their bags are ultra-cute and photographed in a similar whimsical style.

Amy from Inspire Co. started a swap back in March for Club Little House - a gift-exchange program where members make little things for each other’s dollhouses. If you love miniatures and dollhouses, you’ll love her blog | flickr for the project with amazing links

(see Grazhina’s blog and Ulla’s Doll houses and miniatures for example).

** The Crust Station House has been delayed, but is nearing completion, more soon!
