SPECIAL REQUESTS:
I am happy to accommodate special requests such as layaway, custom orders, international shipping etc. - just let me know!

ABOUT MY CREATION PROCESS
Currently, I favor the lumpy, bumpy, solid, handmade, heavy and heartfelt end result over the "precise" items I must create for my larger corporate clients. (Although that's fun too!)

IYSTA™
In case you were wondering... the name "Iysta" was inspired by my son's pronounciation of "hay esta" -his first foray into Spanish. He learned it from his "abuelita" (grandma) who would repeat it to him as he was looking for different toys. It means "there it is" and it's all the inspiration I need!
