Art:

Mike Kungl is one of our favorite artists around. Mike Kungl works with Disney along with many other companies such as the Chuck Jones Gallery and Stan Lee of Marvel Comics. After completing art and design school M Kungl applied his graphic design education to achieve a successful career in advertising. Spending nearly two decades creating award winning logos, package design and illustration for companies such as Panasonic, Johnson & Johnson, Toshiba and Nissan Motors, Kungl then focused on fine art full time and within two years of heading off on his own was selected to create the official artwork for Miami Beach’s 25th annual Art Deco Weekend.

FortuneKeeper is a Brooklyn, NY based company that has created a unique niche for themselves through their beautiful necklaces (with or without a Swarovski Crystal), bracelets, key chains (with or without a Swarovski Crystal), ornaments, and zipper pulls. Have you ever opened your fortune cookie and wanted to keep it? Now you can! No more sticking them in your pocket, taping them to your computer monitor, under a magnet on the fridge or crumpled in your wallet ~ now you’re able to wear them (or maybe it’s a quote, prayer or inspirational message ~ anything that has special meaning to you) and keep them close. On one side a beautiful piece of jewelry shows while on the other it’s clear and visible to read; along with being able to change out the fortune or handwritten message/poetry whatever easily! It’s fantastic. FortuneKeepers’ motto is: Read It ~ Keep It ~ Believe It!

Children’s Slippers:

CHOOZE is a children’s brand featuring footwear, apparel, and accessories designed to inspire creative confidence in kids of all ages. You have to read Sharon’s story (the designer and creator of CHOOZE) on how CHOOZE began: here ~ it makes me smile everytime I think of CHOOZE and/or look at their social media! Their children’s slippers ($25.95 – $29.95) are adorable and you’ll wish they made them in your size!

The mission at CHOOZE: the profits from their products give families in poverty the power of choice. As a Good Returns company, they invest annual profits in anti-poverty programs. These programs provide training, support, education, and loans to women so they can start their own businesses and lift themselves out of extreme poverty. Loans are paid back at the end of the year & they start the cycle over. More powerful than a donation, it’s a sustainable way to have a positive impact by giving a hand-up rather than a hand-out. When kids (big and little) wear CHOOZE shoes, they are helping other kids live better lives. The steps you take create a difference in the world.

Stocking Stuffers:

Sensu artist brushes are the ultimate tools for digital artists. They deliver an authentic painting experience on your tablet or smartphone. Over the years, we’ve developed a lot of artist brushes and have learned tons from some of the best brush makers in the world—careful craftsmen who understand the subtle properties of hair taper, flexibility, and strength. We’ve applied this knowledge to the creation of these unique tools. This design uses advanced hair technology that creates a spring and responsiveness that feels like real painting. The Buddy stylus is the latest addition to our product offering and is meant to go on your favorite pen or pencil to turn them into a stylus. You can go digital and sketch on your touchscreen with Buddy or analog in your notebook using your pen or pencil.

Buddy Stylus ($4.99):
