Guys, I'm so excited to share this completely unique gift idea with you. It's perfect for any foodie, gardener or nature lover. Or nab one for yourself!
These gorgeous bowls were created by a long-time friend of Vegan Coach, Janie Gulick. (You might recognize Janie from our forums. She's our Moderator Extraordinnaire and friend to all.)
Janie is a master artist who specializes in concrete, oil, acrylic, watercolor and printmaking.
We've known Janie for years now, and she is a creative, kind, fun-loving and beautiful artistic soul.
When I saw these leaf bowls on her Facebook wall I knew instantly that this is something my fellow foodies would love, too!
Let's take a peek...
Each bowl is unique and one of a kind! Leaves were collected from Janie's garden. Bowls were then hand-formed by pressing concrete onto the leaves. Each one is hand-colored using concrete stains, and sealed.
The bowls can be displayed inside as well as outside. It is recommended to either turn the bowl upside down or move inside during freezing weather.
No two are alike, just as no two leaves in nature are alike. Each one is signed by the artist.
...including descriptions, measurements, shipping info, photos and pricing!
If you're interested or have any questions, please fill out the Contact Form at the bottom of the page. You must include your email and phone number so Janie can return your inquiry.
Please note: Shipping is through USPS. The pricing is noted below. Outside of Continental U.S. will incur an additional shipping fee.
Please use this form to express your interest in one (or more!) of these beautiful and unique bowls.
How gorgeous are these creations? I'm drooling over here, People!
Hope you'll consider supporting this artist extraordinnaire!

Q: "How long will my leaf bowl take to arrive?"
A: The bowls I have on hand can be shipped the next day. It will take 2-3 days to arrive in the U.S.
Q: "Is each bowl truly one-of-a-kind?"
A: Yes, because just as in nature, every leaf is unique. Even if I were to make a bowl from the same leaf, the completed bowl will be different from any other because of how I stain them.
That said, I have the bowls ready-made and on-hand that you can buy right away. If you're willing to wait, I can make one just for you. It would take 7-10 days to create.
Q: "Are these available year-round?"
A: Yes. Although weather can be a factor. It must be above 50 degrees F and not raining. ;)
