I love handmade! I've been known to spend an obscene amount of time exploring Etsy and when I go to the gift show in NY, I love meeting with the many designers and artists and hearing their stories and perusing the pieces they've created. Caroline Colom Vasquez and her husband, Jose Vasquez-Corbalan are two amazingly talented artists. They've been working together since they met in Austin, Texas. Caroline is from Mystic, CT and Jose is from Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was "love at first sight." While dating, they'd discuss their passion for their craft, hers - ceramic and his- wood. Their dream was to run a business someday. They settled in Austin and made this dream a reality. Paloma's Nest was founded in 2007 and is named after their first daughter (Paloma which means "dove" in Spanish). Together they create heirloom pieces that will be cherished for years to come! We have two items from them- both white ceramic bowls. One is hand stamped with "I love you" with a gold edge and the other is stamped with "I carry your heart" with a silver edge, inspired by the beautiful E.E. Cummings poem (below). They both come in a lovely little box sitting in a straw nest. These are perfect gifts for the special person in your life or a friend, mother or daughter.
[i carry your heart with me(i carry it in]
i carry your heart with me(i carry it inmy heart)i am never without it(anywherei go you go,my dear;and whatever is doneby only me is your doing,my darling) i fearno fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i wantno world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meantand whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows(here is the root of the root and the bud of the budand the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which growshigher than soul can hope or mind can hide)and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
