Ok, to officially open my new store at Etsy I am having a promotion and having a draw for an embroidery. I am giving away one of these three items you see here (the winner chooses). PLease visit the store at GreenBirdDreaming or click on any of the pictures. The pictures will bring you to the product page of that item and to get to the main store there is a little word ’shop’ beside the avatar under the words ‘GreenBirdDreaming’
so back to the promotion, please visit my store and have a noodle and then in your comment please tell me one thing you like about it and one thing you think could be improved. Maybe the pictures don’t strike you, maybe the product descriptions need outlining. Whatever!
For those unfamiliar with Etsy it is a worldwide online store for handmade crafts, supplies for handmade crafts and vintage items. there is everything here, from soaps to jewellery, from strange pictures of cats to king size beds. Its the best online shopping anywhere!

thanks emma! how are your shoes? the red tree painting on your website is really amazing

well first of all i love all your work. very very unique and very very beautiful. it is obvious wow much time and heart you put into your art, which is inspiring. your stuff is rather mystical to me, and so i’m kind of thinking changing some of your pictures would be helpful. I really like the ones above where you can see the outside in the background. would there be anyway to replicate that in your other photos? very nice giveaway!

thanks hannah! yes, It just depends on whether I have taken them to be mounted before I put them on the site. They do look better when I can take pictures of them mounted. I guess I should be patient, i generally want to post them as soon as I can!

I would pick the yellow face thingy - it’s so cool and your photos are beautiful as are the embroidery. I don’t have anything to complain about. Keep rockin!

I very fond of the “Falling star” and “Singing into the blue”. Some artists are very good at portraying - faces, landscapes etc. Very boring. But these small pieces of art reflects someones inside. Something happpened in someones mind and it became “Singing into the Blue”. Mia-

Your artwork is like suspended magic….every time I see something you’ve created I feel inspired! Congratulations on your beautiful artwork and the launch of your etsy store.
Wishing you success upon success always!

really beautiful embroideries! Maybe with the bigger ones have photos that give a clearer idea of the size and presentation.

Hi Clio..
I LOVE the falling star!
I find it delicate, sweet, mystical, pure, “simple”.. like The Life itself.
It´s great to your art pieces Clio :), the care and the heart and the spirit, the peaceful & deep feeling that you put on them.. the feeling of creating things with a different meaning for every person.
One of my suggestions to you, is that you should share with us the meaning of this beautiful pieces of ART.. what do they mean for you?
I also like because when I saw it… I reminded me of my son; the night before I came back to Palmarejo he asked me to go out to the backyard, and he was watching over the sky… and said in a very sirius way for being a 2 years old: “Mom, I want a star”, I asked him why, and he replied…. “because it´s beautiful”.
Much love Clio, and congratulations for your Etsy Shop!

Hi, lovely to hear from you. I LOVE your pieces, they are adorable. The shop is fabulous, I could browse it forever. The images are very tasty. I really like the way some of the items have a ‘function’ such as the ‘lucky’ bird … very appealing.
It’s difficult to find anything negative but if I’m forced to … looking at the measurements the items are bigger than they seem, maybe having something familiar in the background of one of the images to give it some visual perspective of size might be useful.

Love your stuff. I really like the star in the email. Banna
