We're now living and working in Okinawa, Japan and ready to get Flotsam Flips back up and running! Okinawa has 296 miles of well-littered coastline, so we've got plenty of fodder and inspiration for our pieces.

We're in Okinawa, Japan now!! And quite settled so it's time to get the shop up and moving again.

Happier with my second attempt at gourd and pine needle pot. Managed to clean up the stitches a bit and work a decent silhouette. Rather labor intensive craft. Though I usually turn flotsam into art, jewelry and other things, I like this particular craft for its bowl and basketry combination. Also, it strikes me as potentially very Coastal North Carolina-ish... I suppose because there are gourds and pine needles everywhere!
My shop is Flotsam Flips on Etsy. Also visit my website: flotsamflips.weebly.com @ Cape Carteret, North Carolina
