The beadwork is exquisite! It is so time-consuming and not at all easy to do the handwork on them. I have the utmost respect for the people doing this. There were so many beautiful examples of this work, I am in awe. Beads are so hard to work with on the tiny work, I have done some and it has taken me longer than I would have ever guessed. It was beadwork on one of my daughter's dresses and that is a lot easier than on pillows or other home goods.
That was interesting in the Feng Shui! And you are right! Even the ones in the States are black. I have to wonder why they would do dishes of this color? I am a big fan of blue and white for the same reason. Plus it is just pretty! :)
I love those lamps up on top. Really pretty. There is so much I love about this post. All sorts of lovely things. Glad I don't have to pay for them! It totally amazed me to know how much effort people put into making their post. The challenge started and pointed out our differences in the beginning, but, then, it really started showing how many things our cultures share. When the day is done, it shows off how human we all are and how we basically all care about our families and others. I love the experience of it all. I appreciate the love and support given to #MarketFriday! Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a piece of your world, and I have to say, people are interested in is seeing it. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Thank you very much for your support and time and dedication in reading and giving so much thought on all the posts. It was quite a learning experience walking around these beautiful objects. I could never imagine myself capable of doing pottery, making handicrafts and artistic work. It just shows that human beings are capable of creative and wonderful invention. I just hope that the creativity side will overcome the negative emotional impulses so that the world could be in harmony.
There is much work to be done and time is running too fast these days!
Wishing you a very nice day.
Thank you and I agree! Time is flying!
