BESTeam Weekly Feature - Our Home to Yours

Come check out this week's BESTeam featured site Our Home to Yours owned by Debbie and Amanda from North Carolina.

Debbi is a professional mother (the best job on earth) with bio kids, foster kids, and a newly adopted kid.  Art is her stress reliever and favorite hobby. She is excited to be running an Etsy shop with her daughter Amanda.

Amanda is a working mom with a toddler. She has a Masters in Graphic Design with Fine Arts as her background. She makes all of the avatars and banners for Our Home to Yours.

For  anyone that likes original and one of a kind items, you can find them at Our Home to Yours. When Amanda and Debbi create something, they almost never re-make it. Why? They like to try new things all the time, so if you saw something in the shop that is now sold, let them know and they will re-make it just for you, if they can. 

You will never see a piece of Our Home to Yours jewelry sold and re-listed. Debbi doesn't draw a design first, and rarely buys in bulk. She just piles her beads in front of her, and let's the jewelry design themselves. She feels that if you wanted to look like everyone else, you would be shopping at Wal-mart. 



Updated Vintage Blue Hat with Flower





A pretty steel blue vintage hat refurbished with new trim and flower. The inside measurement is approximately 22" in diameter. I removed the tattered netting and flower, and replaced it with new fabric and a great handmade flower by youaremysunshine here on etsy.



A long silver chain necklace with a deep sapphire blue pendant, the perfect accent for any outfit. The chain measures 22 inches long and the pendant is one inch around. The necklace features a layered look with a double chain.

The pendant boasts a delicate silver spray of foliage against the sapphire blue of the gem. A nice feminine touch to the boldness of the chain.



Looking for the perfect accessory for that new summer outfit? Try this turquoise and lilac and gold beaded necklace highlighted with a bold crystal accented dragonfly. This handmade necklace measures 19" from end to end, and the dragonfly is 1 3/4" long. It's just the perfect length, not too short and not too long. Made with a gold lobster claw, this necklace will not last long, so grab it now!



This is a too cute handmade flip flop. A two tone flower tops off the multi-hued straps of these sandals, great for a day at the beach, or just kicking around town. This is a size xs and measures approximately 9" from toe to heel.


These are only a few of the wonderful items available. Please check out the rest of this beautiful collection at Our Home to Yours Etsy Shop and also take the time to view the Our Home to Yours blog.
