We stopped in this cool shoppe today after lunch in Dade City. We thought it was an antique store…read moreand were delighted to see that not only did they sell really unique vintage and antique items but they're mainly an art gallery and offers a custom framing service! I've been searching for a good one and wallah! I'm going back next week with a few canvas paintings I need framed and excited to finally get them framed! If you haven't been here, be sure to check it out!

Dade City is now on the map for art! Sooooo impressed w/ what I saw & heard upon my visit. Months…read moreago (during the height of Covid), as I walked past this art gallery, I was greeted by the friendly owner. A lover of art (& someone who is appreciative of friendly people), I knew then I would have to return. Today was my lucky day. This gorgeous 3,000 sq ft gallery is owned by Russ & Lee Taylor-- a husband & wife team. Lee, a painter, spent many years as a local public school art teacher. Lee's medium is mixed media. Currently, 25 artists have pieces on display here & available for purchase. All but two artists reside in Florida. A few creations belong to one of my favorite artists (Lloyd Johnson of the Tampa area); they are sold here. Every piece in this gallery is handselected by the Taylor's. This gallery is perfect for anyone interested in abstract paintings, ceramics, jewelry, landscapes, leather, metalworks, mixed media, photography, sculptures, @ items of decor to brighten any home. The name of the business relates to the deep faith these business owners possess. The psalm painted within the gallery is "Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands." According to Lee, "As artists we make things with our hands, but more importantly, everything is truly out of our hands because it's in God's hands." A contributing artist here does not need to be Christian-- all (faith or no faith) are welcome for selection providing the art s/he creates offers positivity. This business is not merely a gallery. ART CLASSES are held weekdays & Saturdays for every level of artist (or future artist). There are also periodic art shows-- check out the gallery's Facebook page for more information. One dream of this lovely couple is to introduce art to the local community-- a goal they work toward six days weekly (closed Sundays). I love galleries, especially ones like this that showcase local artists from within our state. This beautiful, immaculate gallery is filled w/ breathtaking pieces that range in price from $10 upward. The space exudes incredibly positive vives-- such a welcoming physical space coupled with an exceptionally nice owner. I can't wait to return!

After a family vacation in Clearwater Beach, FL the photographer I hired to do a family photo shoot…read morerecommended My Favorite Art Place for my canvas collage that I wanted. Jess was great to work with and set me up with a gorgeous collage with 9 total pieces. Fast forward a few months, one of the couples in the photos break-up, my son and his long time girlfriend. So, I reached out to order a new pic in the collage. To my surprise Jess mentioned that they may be able to edit this person out of the photos. We opted to replace one of the shots with my son's Golden Retriever. The work that Jess and her team did was nothing short of a miracle! I had no idea that this was even possible. I re-ordered 4 more canvas photos and have a revised family collage! If they can do this, they can do ANYTHING! See pics below

I really enjoyed my visit to the Pioneer Museum & Village. It was definitely set back in time, &…read moremany of the buildings were actual buildings from back in the day. We visited the main building which had many examples of artifacts that reflect what time was like in FL back in time. My favorites were seeing the Victorian Doll Houses and seeing how detailed the homes were. I also loved seeing the dolls and the types of clothes they would be wearing by decade. My favorite was walking through the back. It was a nice sized village that had a church, school, train station, home, grove, garage, tool shed, barn, etc. There was a number of activities, actual people dressed back in time, animals, etc. There is a lot to see here. They often have special events throughout the year. If you like their Facebook, their events will pop up. Their next event has to do with their popular homemade sugar cane. That event will be Jan. 9. This place is fun, pretty, & educational at the same time.

I went in thinking a tarot card reading was three cards but was pleasantly surprised that it was a lot more! You have an opportunity to take a picture of all the cards featured in your reading at the end. Jasmine really knows her stuff and is able to walk through all the cards with ease. The store itself has many cool nooks to explore and tons to shop for. If you are allergic to cats, you absolutely will want to take allergy meds. There are two cats and one sheds a lot. Highly recommend if you are looking for a spot for tarot readings and crystals.
