Dean Designs

So, how many people out there still haven’t gotten anything for your Valentine? Unfortunately, I don’t know that this week’s artist can get items shipped to you by Sunday, but better late than never for the perfect gift, no? Now, the perfect gift part - that I can help you with.

Tracie Dean, like many of our artists, got her start because she wanted something she couldn’t find. So, what’s an artsy person to do when you want a product that’s not out there? You make your own. So, when Tracie couldn’t find a cell phone and purse charm that she liked, she decided to do just that – she made her own.

Tracie created Purskeys, a completely handmade line of purse and cell phone charms, as well as bracelets and earrings. Her creations range from whimsical to funky to completely girlie. I love them! Tracie has a shop on Etsy, www.deancustomdesigns.etsy.com where you can see and purchase any products that strike your fancy. Just be sure that if you would like any changes made to the order that you let Tracie know before you finalize your order. So, all you late shoppers, get on Etsy and get that perfect gift!
