Moonlight Festival 6.24.11

Mini Fairies!

I shared a vending space with my amazing friend Carri. This is my side...

Butterfly wings!

...This is Carri's side. Her jewelry is gorgeous. Right now she's giving my husband the stare of death. What did he say?! Lol

MarshFingers!! :)

Getting ready for the Forests & Fairies theme!

My friend Ashley, rocking the butterfly wing!

Carri whined that I didn't love her until I gave her a wing too. Of course I love her!

What ARE MarshFellows?!

MarshFellows are creatures created from polymer clay. They come in a never ending variety and serve not only as gifts but can also be used as cake toppers or unique favors for birthdays, showers, weddings and even bachelorette parties.


All MarshFellows are crafted by hand. That means each and every 'Fellow is unique and no two are exactly alike. Which means you get a one-of-a-kind MarshFellow every time.


I started making these little guys as a hobby back in 2009. Just as a way to pass the time, be creative and have fun. As usual it started with friends and family and then trickled down to friends of friends and so on.


Now it's 2011 and I'm only getting started.





Super Bee!

As an artist I love change and inspiration, as a woman I love getting what I want. And the two combined can result in some pretty awesome pieces.
 Ever since I've been pregnant I've been obsessed with bumble bee art. I think it's so upbeat and adorable. So while in the stages of planning the nursery, I decided to treat myself to something super cute...and thus Super Bee was born!

Lily Love Photography



I have to give credit where it is most definitely due.
I love making MarshFellows and I have faith in my little creations, knowing that each one will find the perfect home. But I can't even dream of that happening without Kristen Ashford.



Kristen is the talented and creative eye behind Lily Love Photography and ranked one the best of the top photographers and photography studios here in Clarksville, TN.




When I have finished MarshFellows, the first thing I do is get in touch with Kristen. I usually meet with her at Mag's Coffee shop downtown.


She comes bearing a smile and her enormous camera bag over one shoulder, while at the same time guiding her daughter, Abi, to a table where she can color or play with her sticker-book.


Now, you should take care to remember that.


Kristen has the responsibility of minding her energetic four-year-old in a usually crowded coffee shop, while arranging and shooting pictures.


But to see her work, you'd think she had all the attention and focus in the world.




Every photograph she has ever taken for me has been perfect. She takes care to remember the tiny details and I am always more than satisfied with the finished product.


Of course, this isn't the normal way in which Kristen works. But that's the point, she goes above and beyond the duty of a photographer and always presents beautiful results.


To contact Kristen or to see more of her work follow the links below:
