THe MiGHtY RoaR MoNsTeR bOx

THe MiGHtY RoaR MoNsTeR bOx, originally uploaded by ametistagirl.

Whilst on safari, on the isle, a hunting we did go,
to catch the MiGHtY MoNsTer bOx, the fiercest that we know.

We hid beneath the tangled vines within the lions den
and waited there till it's return to capture it and then...

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the Lion slept that night
and as he did, from whence we hid, we gave him such a fright.

The net was thrown, the lion caught, he let out such roar.
The loudest thing we'd ever heard...it shook the jungle floor!

And so we have here, just for you, a box most proud and strong, to keep your lovely little treasures right where they belong.

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!

A Crafty Clay Shoppe Customer Creation...

Look what Roz Loftus of Rozzies Sparklies has created using molds from The Clay Shoppe by Ametista!   She is a talented Precious Metal Clay artisan from the UK who, aside from being a fabulous customer of ours, is someone who wishes she could be a singer, architect and travel writer when she grows up...(and secretly hopes she will never grow up) and we respect that.

We eagerly look forward to seeing more work from Roz!  We invite you to view more amazing work created by our loyal customers.  To view the fabulousness click here.  

Are you a Clay Shoppe customer?  Want to have your work featured here?  Let us know by leaving a comment at the end of this post and we will contact you.
