Paisley(s) of the Week! Crochet Pattern and ACEO

Last week I was on vacation and so I was unable to post a Paisley of the Week! for you all.  This week, to make up for it, you get a two-fer!  I have two excellent artists to highlight.

First is this fun and very cool Paisley Magic Crochet Pattern I found in Allescaro by Ch1306 's Etsy shop.  I haven't done any crochet in ages but this is very appealing both because it's a small project that can be finished quickly and it's portable.  Once  you crochet these paisleys in your fave colors you can applique them to all sorts of things like quilts or handbags.  Be sure to check out the whole Etsy shop for unique and adorable Amigurumi, dolls and patterns.

Next is this lovely ACEO titled Paisley-Blue by ArtByBeata.  ACEOs are a favorite art form of mine, they're like baseball cards only way more interesting.  They are an excellent way to start an art collection without breaking your budget.  Beata has many ACEOs and plenty of great artwork in her shop.  Be sure to take a look.
