Aloha from Most Anything Hawaii

Simple and classy comes to mind when I think of Lisa and Catrin's beautiful jewelry and clutch purses of Most Anything Hawaii. Catrin who is one part of this dynamic duo just started making clutch bags about six months ago when she was waiting for her work visa.


While her husband was at work she began creating all day. Catrin has always been creative in different ways...embroidery, sewing, painting porcelain, and flower arrangements. She is also a florist.




Catrin would say that God inspires her... she usually prays and ask God to lead her as she is creating. She explains that when she forgets to, usually it doesn't turn out very good. Catrin knows her creativity comes from the Lord. He is also the one who gives her meaning and joy in life... along with her husband, who is a great encourager.



She also loves gardening, baking and cooking. Catrin is very fortunate to live in Hawaii, but grew up in Sweden. She has always loved nature and that is what influences her work. Since she lives in Hawaii, she will stroll on the the beach with her husband. They usually find driftwood and shells to use for her work.




Catrin and Lisa are generously offering these lovely pair of earrings to one of my readers. Just post a comment of what inspires you for a chance to win these lovely earrings. The winner will be announced next Tuesday.

I LOVE those clutches! I've had my eye on several for a while now... just wondering if I'm going to get them for me or as gifts... ;)

I draw my inspiration from anywhere and everywhere. Nature, magazines, blogs, photographs, events, songs, moments... inspiration is everywhere.

I would not say that I am very creative, but watching my toddler at play, I think everyone is probably born with a very creative nature. I love all of the pieces in the shop, particularly the Bamboo Forest- Hawaiian Earrings. Thank you for this giveaway! ~cee~

What inspires me? Seeing the men and women of the armed services (my sweet husband included) who sacrifice and work hard every day and get paid very little for what they do. I am in awe of their dedication to their country and ideals. Thank you I love this giveaway. Carolyn McIntyre, Samandcarolyn1@aol.com
