I hired Inky Fingers Calligraphy to make bridesmaids proposal cards for me along with doing…read moreCalligraphy on the envelopes the cards would come in. Margot hand painted manatee designs for each card(to go with the under the sea themed party I through). Each of my friends loved their cards. This made me want to use her again later when I saw she did calligraphy letters to Santa that she would mail out. I purchased 4 letters to mail to the children in my life. It was a fun surprise for them. She even created an extra personalized note for one of the kids I told her celebrated both Hannukah and Christmas.

I've attended 2 of Margot's classes, Modern Calligraphy at Safety Harbor's Cafe Vino Tinto &…read moreWatercolor Painting at Largo Coastal Market..& both were a great experience & so fun! Margot's insanely talented & if I was still planning a wedding or having to send out formal invites...I'd hire her for her talented hand in a second! Additionally, I've had Margot help me w a graduation gift, an engraved bottle. I knew she was great at it bc shes engraved her own tumblers that I saw in-person & she at one point would engrave perfume bottles during holiday times within the department stores, usually the higher end ones. I hope to catch some more classes w my sister, mom & girlfriends in the future!

Apparently many moons ago, this guy decided to randomly paint a sun-kissed orange on a building in…read moredowntown Dunedin. Everyone wanted to know who did it, and as the mystery grew, the local papers got in on the action demanding the mystery muralist make himself known. Soon after, businesses along Main Street began putting signs up that read, "put an orange here!" And that's how the story of the seemingly random oranges around Dunedin began. We just moved here about a month ago, and one of the first questions I had was, "What is the freaking deal with the oranges? Is one person responsible or are there just a lot of talented artists living here? Can I get one? How much are they? Who do I call?" So many questions! In my neighborhood, I noticed some folks had the same orange on signs in their yards. I didn't know what they represented, so I started sniffing around on the NextDoor app, where I got the answers to all my questions. The man behind the oranges is Steven Spathelf, a local painter, artist and muralist. I immediately looked him up on FB, sent him a message and a few weeks later--BOOM. I've got my very own orange, which happens to be the 379th in the city. Steven is super laid back, and easy to work with. Will work around your schedule and do any size job, no matter how ambitious it is. His portfolio is crazy, and goes far beyond the simple oranges he splatters all over the city. Beach scenes, palm trees, rustic countrysides, whales, dolphins, automobiles, you freaking name it. For some examples: http://spatssplats.com/gallery.php My cuz lives over in Safety Harbor, where the Spanish introduced grapefruits to the state of Florida. After he saw my orange, he is seriously considering having a grapefruit put somewhere on his house.
