Artist Spotlight: Sylvia Marie

Since 1500 BC Mosaics have been a huge part of art and culture. Nowdays it's more used for home decor and art. We have the pleasure of working with artist Sylvia Marie from Whittier, CA. She makes beautiful Mosaic tables, desks, birdhouses, and other miscellaneous pieces...she refers to them as "hidden treasures". She finds the items at garage sales, vintage stores, and sometimes makes them herself. After finding the perfect piece, she makes her Mosaic masterpiece! The Mosaics themselves take about 3 days, then they take 1 week to cure.


Each creation has added treasures to make them a stand out piece, while still being functional!


Sylvia also does great hats! She purchases the plain hats and adorns them with beautiful flowers made of ribbon and other neat trims!

Stop by Hapa and check out her great work!
