The Art of Re-Enchanting...

As many of you already know, we specialize in polymer clay, with a focus on dark yet whimsical home decor, such as artistic apothecary bottles and MoNsTeR bOxes. But what you may not know is that most of our items are crafted from re-enchanted glass, wood and other materials.


Starbucks fans will recognize these bottles.
What is Re-Enchanted?
The Definition of Re-Enchanted goes something like this...
To Enchant—
en-chant [en-chant]
-verb (used with object)
1. To subject to magical influence; bewitch: fairy tales about witches who enchant handsome princes and beautiful maidens.
2. To delight to a high degree: Her gaiety and wit have enchanted us all.
3. To impart a magic quality or effect to.

Re—
re [ree]
-prefix (used in this case with a verb)
To re-do: Can I have a do over?
To do again
To reuse, and this case to Recycle.



Chambord anyone?

In short, we re-enchant the mundane and render it magical!
At Ametista you can choose from our ever expanding selection of artistic offerings
OR you can have us custom design a piece just for you!

Help us name this MoNsTeR bOx...

Here's recently captured MoNsTer bOx who refuses to tell us it's name...stubborn little bugger. So we must give it a new one and we need your help. Please leave us a comment with your name suggestion(s) ...we welcome any ideas you may have here.

We greatly appreciate your efforts in the endeavor.

UPDATE - As of 8/29/09 we have, via our Facebook and Flickr friends, the following submissions...
  • Dorothy's Revenge
  • Beetlejuice
  • Zebra Crossing
  • Wicked West
  • Deep Blue Sea
  • Mime-in-a-Box
  • Wicked
  • Ebony & Ivory
All very tempting! The hard part will be to pick just one, so tell us what you think. Which one would you pick?
