Novica Review and Giveaway

When Novica contacted me and asked me if I would like to review one of their products, I jumped at the chance.  If you haven't heard of Novica, you should know that Novica is a very special company.  They work with National Geographic to give talented artists and artisans around the world a global platform to express their artistic talents.  They create a bridge between you the purchaser and the many talented artisans around the globe.  Novica provides access to unique and hard to find items at great values.  They have thousands of top fair trade corporate gifts, accessories, jewelry and home decor items on their website.

After enjoying every second of exploring their website, I chose a gorgeous owl created by an artist in Mexico.  The ordering process was very easy and delivery was very quick (less than ten days) considering it was coming all the way from Mexico.  Look at how beautiful the presentation is.

I was very excited when I got home yesterday and found this waiting for me.

It was wrapped extremely well.  I love that about Novica.

I have ordered from Novica before.  Here is a gorgeous vase I ordered from Novica.

Here is my one of a kind, hand-created, owl.  It's truly a masterpiece.
Each piece of art comes with a story about the artist and the piece.

The hand-carved details are just beautiful.

Here is an up-close view of the back.

The artist even signed it.

I love my new owl.  He's a perfect addition to my family room decor.
I am so lucky to have something so special in my home.

Novica is not limited to home decor.

They have gorgeous hand-made jewelry...

and beautiful hand bags.

They even sell hand-crafted mirrors.
They also sell Women's Clothing from Central America, Blue Dresses, Short Skirts, Double Hammocks, Margarita Glasses and Unique Table Lamps!!
