January Artomat Little Inspirations series

In January 2020, I sent off another series of hand painted ornaments to Artomat.


Each wooden round is cut from either maple or oak wood.


Every ornament has an original watercolor flower, 

a vintage stamp (usually international), 



and an inspiring word or phrase



because these are from my Little Inspirations series:  floral fun + an inspiring word.

I hope you enjoy these little delights.
