Holiday Kits!

Don't get fooled by cheap box store art kits full of dry markers, platic filler and cheap quality -

Come and see our many hand selected holiday kits for the creative people in your family.

A new look

We've made a few nice changes for the Holidays.

We moved the cash register area into the corner,

to give even more room to show off the Christmas tree and all the Local art we have on display.

It's Quite lovely.

Canvas rack

I was trying to decide how to make the canvas rack that we have able to hold more canvas...
maybe even make it look nice...

After too much struggle, I remembered the phrase "you can't make a silk purse out of  a sow's ear",
and decided to put it out of it's misery. :)

Everything we have fits much more smoothly in this rack.
Ok  I'll admit the Really big stuff isn't in the rack, (and there is more canvas on the way), but we will always find room for more product!

The Gift show is lovely!

All of us at Artists Mediums want to thank all the talented customers and friends of the store who have brought thier artwork in to make our gift show so beautiful!

I don't have room here to list all these talented folks, for we have over 70 pieces of art on our walls, and are showing the creativity of over 50 artists in this store, but I would like to mention a few of you, since I am going to show pictures of your art.

Here's a small sampling:

from handmade scarves and tote bags,(Thanks to Dawn O'Connell, Martha Ohliger, and Lynn Powers.)

and wooden ornaments and puzzles, (Thanks to Harvey Bartlett)

and Snowflakes of Vermont wooden ornaments (Thanks to Betsy Sylvester) We even have outdoor quality "leaf cast" cement sculptures

made by the high school students of Christ Covenant School in Marshfield Vermont, and 85% of those proceeds go directly back to that school's art program!

We even have some beautifully decorated small picture frames.

(Thanks to Sharon Diner and Season Hubley)

Come an see this amazing selection!

We also have many small traditional watercolor, oil and acrylic paintings. Buy one of a kind gifts for your friends and families during the holiday season, with the joy of knowing the money is staying local!

(Remember, we only take a 15% commission, so the artist takes home 85% of their asking price.)

Williston Craft Shop Hop!

October 22, 23 and 24, 2009

Thursday 10 – 8, Friday 10 – 8 and Saturday 10 – 5

At Artists' Mediums, Bead Crazy, Island Scrapbook and Northeast Fiber Arts.

Purchase a Craft Hop Passport for $15 (10% of proceeds go to the Williston Community Food Shelf) and on October 22, 23 and 24th, you can visit each of the shops at your leisure (do it all in 1 day or break it up over several). As you hop between Bead Crazy, Island Scrapbook, Artists’ Mediums and Northeast Fiber Arts in Williston, you will learn a variety of techniques while making a set of beautiful note, greeting, or holiday gift cards.

You’ll learn to make lustrous silk paper from hand-dyed tussah silk at Northeast Fiber Arts; relief carving for stamping techniques and 3-D paper pop ups at Artists’ Mediums; use the “Cricut” machine for dye cutting, embossing with “Sizzix” at Island Scrapbook, and make earrings to embellish your cards at Bead Crazy! So grab a friend or two and make it an extended “craft weekend” in Williston.

Materials at each shop sold separately. Purchasing the Passport allows you to participate in the workshops at each store, be eligible for prize drawings and special coupons at each store, donate to the Williston Community Food Shelf, and, if you visit all four shops, enter the drawing for the gorgeous grand prize basket worth over $100.00!
