5 out of 5 starsWe are very pleased with our purchase from color story designs. We are always on the look out for unique art and were immediately drawn the Amy’s work. We have never seen anything like it and when it arrived it was even more impressive. We were looking for a pop of color in our kitchen that tied into the other colors we have. The art was a great addition. We would definitely buy her art again.

5 out of 5 starsSuch a well made, unique piece of wall art!
This green color(s) is even more beautiful in person.
Also ordered several other of these pieces, one each in vibrant pinks, very chic black, and a similar brown combo much like this green one.
Customer service was great, and shipping was fast.
Just to note, shipping was very fast as all pieces I ordered were already completed. I do have confidence that even the 'made to order' pieces will be ready & shipped in a timely fashion.
They add an easy to do, unique look to any wall space.
Very happy with purchase.
Highly recommend this shop! -

About colorstorydesigns
handmade designs... created from recycled magazines!
colorstory designs began as a way for myself, Amy Gibson, and my best friend, Andrea Read, to be creative and have fun together. We met at an architecture firm in Seattle, WA in 2007, and began our small green design business shortly thereafter. At the end of 2010, Andrea needed to pursue a new job in Kansas City area where she works with a small organization that fights poverty throughout the world. Even though I've continued colorstory designs on my own, the original concept was created by both of us, and she is still my best friend and a huge part of my life!
Everything I make is made from recycled magazines- and I try to find the most colorful parts of the magazines to create one-of-a-kind pieces of art for you! My work includes picture frames, jewelry, wine charms, magnets, mirrors and shadowboxes. Everything is created by me in Tulsa, OK- where I live with my supportive husband Jason and young son Ben. I hope you enjoy looking through my etsy shop and please recycle- it's important!
