We have finally began to realize that dream! At Harbor Acres we make beautiful Goats Milk Soap, Lotion, Beard Balms, Soaking Salts, Candles, Wax Melts and more. We strive for quality over quantity and make all our products in small batches.

 Karen and Deb Wolf love beachcombing for sea glass, rocks and other objects of interest to repurpose and incorporate into pieces of art for the garden. From driftwood and glass wind chimes to mosaics on driftwood and rock, each piece is infused with color and light. Karen also paints antique wood chairs, turning them into "Happy Chairs." Fun and fanciful, each chair is an original, one-of-a-kind creation. Located in Freeland, Karen and Deb will be happy to create a custom piece for you! "Every piece of art we create is filled with light, a little whimsy, and a little Whidbey." garden art with glass and mosaics, small wooden signs, and wind chimes with sea glass, and beads

   This year spread the holiday cheer with the gift of mandala themed hand painted stones, wall art, fine art prints, jewelry and wooden ornaments! Most stones, even the pendants and earrings, are locally sourced and handpicked by the artist herself with a vision in mind. Dot by dot that vision comes to life, requiring meticulous paint placement to achieve symmetry and balance that results in unique creations. Once the mandalas become masterpieces, a resin based sealer is used on all stone and wooden pieces for you and your loved ones to enjoy for years to come! So whether it be on your mantle, around your neck or on your Christmas tree, there's a mandala meant for you.

My hand-crafted ceramics are a snapshot of the peace and quiet found on Whidbey Island. Each piece captures natural forms and patterns, affording a moment to pick up tranquility and put down the stresses of modern life. For me, ceramics have become a way to get back in touch with a feeling of inner calm and natural order. I found my way to clay this year, falling in love with the material’s infinite recyclability and reusability. I hope my work imparts a feeling of awe and wonder onto you.

  Almost three years ago, I started making earrings with the purpose of creating a business. Now I sell my designs with seasonal collection releases. This fall I created “Autumn Feelings” which features mushrooms as my main inspiration. For the in-person markets I attend, such as the monthly Greenbank Farm Flea Market, the new South Whidbey Flea, the Whidbey Women and Art Show, and more, I also include handmade postcards as well as a new addition, houseplants. I am passionate about reducing waste as a small business, so upcycling has become my main creative challenge. My inspiration for pretty much everything is nature and the precious animals in our lives.

For over 23 years, Pamela has been working with upcycled textiles.  Her treasure hunts for the perfect textiles take her to a variety of thrift stores.  She brings her happy finds home, washes and dries them, then cuts them apart to be perfectly paired with other colors to create eye- catching designs in straight scarves, reversable infinity scarves, hats, headbands and cowls.  She has been featured in Sacramento Magazine and on Good Day Sacramento, but her studio nowadays is on Whidbey Island.

We do tea, we do glass!

Specifically, we create teas with no chemical flavorings, either natural or artificial, added. We use as many organic ingredients as we can source when we make them. Our personal pride & joy: chocolate mint tea! We have caffeinated, herbal, and low-medium caffeine offerings.

We also create fused glass items, from tree ornaments to fairy houses to suncatchers. Have a geeky person to shop for? We'll have some ornaments for them.
