I love, love, love the work of Ester Ramirez. Please go visit her booth at Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago this weekend, and buy some sweet stuff! Ester makes incredibly detailed, colorful paper goods, all made by hand with tiny intricate cut out patterns. They are brilliant and beautiful. She has a wonderful blog and etsy store as well. There is a link to Essi’s stuff on this page, to the right, under friends and wonderfuls.

Ester’s stuff sometimes reminds me of the brilliant paintings of Beatriz Milhazes, my most favorite painter!
