At-choo – Los Angeles, California
Once upon a time, in a land where the summers smelled like tomatoes and caterpillars came out of their sleeping bags to become monarch butterflies, Elaine Seamans, the creator of At-Choo, sprouted.
Nature mystified her, animals gave her comfort and creating made her feel alive. But, alas, what to do for a living? Her dream was to do everything she loved and so she did. Although in varying amounts and not all at the same time. She became an elf of the arts & crafts variety.
With a couple of degrees in design in hand, Elaine created At-Choo. One of the goals of At-Choo is to inspire hope, love and all good things that make us feel better. Including laughter.

Perry Holbrook – Asheville, North Carolina
Handmade in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, these little boxes are both art and function. Self-taught in woodworking, metal-smithing, and glass, the craftsman, Perry Holbrook, uses his talents to blend those materials into a small piece of art that is truly unique. Educated as an engineer, after being “downsized” for the last time, Perry has been a full-time studio craftsman since 2002. Whether hand-carved out of a single piece of maple, welded together out of steel, turned on a lathe, assembled using traditional wood joints, or formed copper, Perry also makes a colorful glass tile, with a formed air bubble, to serve as the box top, blending the design together. Collected by many, these little treasures are designed to hold your special possessions.
