Today's Featured Seller - 3Dots!


Oh boy am I late on this one! I asked over the weekend for sellers to show me their stores for a feature and I'm just now getting to it. Bad me. ;)

But, once again, when I asked I had pages upon pages of stores to choose from. It's so tough sometimes! But, this store, 3Dots really stood out to me. Maybe it's because I love Inukshuks, I don't know. But there is definately something special about this seller and her shop.

I tried something a little different this time too. I sent a series of questions for her to answer. I thought it might be kind of neat to try it that way instead of all of you slogging through my horrendous thoughts and ramblings.

So, without further ado, here is 3Dots!

Tell me a little bit about you, your art and your store

Hi! My name is Lucie and i'm a 26 years. I live in Québec which is a francophone province in Canada. I'm really into modern Art and contemporary design. I studied Arts in college which helped me find my own style. I think all this is reflected in my shop. You can find one of a kind, simple and contemporary wood jewelry.


What is your favourite piece and why?

My favorite piece is hard to choose but I think it's this one, the "Tall Inukshuk" not only because it seems to be the most hearted in my shop, but because I just love so much the overall look of it. I love the wood pieces shapes and the way they are disposed. It just gets a lot of comments.






What inspires you?

As I said below, i'm really inspired by modern Art and contemporary design. I love linear and geometric shapes, i'm just attracted by them. Nature is also a great source of inspiration, I love the fact that i'm working with a natural material.



If the world could only know one thing about you, what would you want that to be?


If the world could know only one thing about me, I would love them to know that making these pieces is extremely fullfilling for me. I'm really passionate about what I do and being able to show it through Etsy is such a great thing!


What did you have for breakfast?

This morning, I had Special K red berries for breakfast as almost every morning... I just can't get enough...

What is the strangest pet you've ever had?

I actually own the strangest pet. It's my cat. You migth think a cat isn't really strange but believe me, mine is. He's the ugliest you've ever seen for sure, he loves to eat salad, strawberries, watermelon and BBQ chips but no chicken or things cats usually love. He also likes to play like a dog. When we throw something away, he brings it back and wants to play again... What a weird cat !!




Ok, I just have to jump in here in defense of kitty. She is not ugly! I think she's beautiful. Don't you? ;)


If you were a colour, what colour would you be?

If I was a colour, I would like to be turquoise. I don't really know why but I think this color is refreshing and eye catching. I love turquoise!
I've picked a couple of my favourite pieces from 3Dot's shop.
Bubble Trouble




And a gorgous bracelet!



Well, I certainly hope you enjoy 3Dot's shop. I think she has absolutely stunning work! Be sure to drop by and spread some Etsy love. Just click on her banner (NOT my design!) to go there.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

This is a nice feature. Like the way you got in detailed with the store owner. I hope if I ever end up in your pile of stores to chose from you do my feature the same way...
