Thursday Etsy Feature - Midnightcoiler

A little while ago, I joined an Etsy team who are dedicated to promote each other by featuring the members in treasuries. So not only do I get featured in more treasuries, it makes it easier to find artists to blog about. Today, I want to introduce you to Lynn, from Midnightcoiler. She makes hand-carved gourds, basketry, pottery, nature crafts and organically grown & gathered naturals, and is also one of the team's administrators.

Designer Egg Gourds
Gourd Puzzle Box


Lynn has a passion for making art using materials that are gathered and grown from nature. She has actually started a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the use of gathered natural fibers in basketry and art. She grows her own gourds and they are all one of a kind. She has even won over 100 awards at various art and gourd shows. Go Lynn! So please check out her shop for some unique pieces of art.
