Unique Los Angeles - Creative * Fun * Bargains

Yesterday I attended Unique Los Angeles - what an amazing event.  If you're in the Los Angeles area - the show will run today from 11am-7pm. 

Hands down my favorite booth was Nicole Cote Studios - custom metalware - which translates to mind-blowing jewelry that is energetically uplifting and beautiful. 

Nicole cuts most of her pieces - which include silver, metal and wood from all over the world.  Of all the jewelry booths -this one is by far superior.  The jewelry combinations are unique and quietly beautiful. 

We also loved Catia Chien's art prints.  She was sold out of her originals (which is a good thing) and talked to us about her process for commission work.  Catia takes a word or story and will create a customized piece of art. 

I loved going through Spike Designs re-purposed leather bags, cuffs and purses - everything is made from recycled leather jackets, pants, etc.  It's so soft and she uses stamps to embellish many of her pieces. 

Jake & Micah - for super lucky pets! is a cat's fantasy - there's sushi toys stuffed with catnip and handmade breakaway collars with jingle bells. 

Clothing, tea, art prints, hats, jelly - you name it and it's probably here. 

There's an eco-friendly section as well as a "Rockin' Babies and Cool Kids" section. 

Even if you don't live in Los Angeles, you can connect via the web to most of the vendors. 

If you're looking for a unique and fun gift for someone, then Unique Los Angeles is the place. 

I'd love to hear your comments and discoveries.
