We make art on wood with unique designs. Most of our items are made of light wood and all items are painted and drawn by hand with lovely color combinations. No two items alike; each one has its own unique and different design.
Green Tip
If you paint use water based paint (aka acrylic paint). It's better for our environment!
Be organized, not messy. It makes crafting easier!

Our shop offers custom designed frames using unique bling magnets, personalized clipboards and jewelry and trinket boxes. We use scrapbook paper, tulle, jewels, ribbon and design many of our own papers. These gifts are perfect for school teachers, young girls and any woman that you know that you want to give a unique gift to. We can also custom design any one of our items to match colors or personalities. We offer the most fabulous paper covered projects on the web.
Mod Podge Tip
Using Mod Podge (which we do in all our items) can be very tricky. Many times the paper is wrinkled and gets bubbles. Here's a trick to using this product. Put the Mod Podge thickly on both the paper and the item it is going on. Start putting the paper down at the top and slowly lowering and pressing it at the same time. Use a rolling pin (or any a brayer if you have one) to roll over the paper to push out any air bubbles.

sandandart.com is a website which offers amazing sand art bottles from Petra Jordan featuring camels, mountains and other desert inspired designs. Petra is an ancient city in Jordan and is where these artists obtain the beautifully colored sand they use in their sand art.
Sand Art Tip
When making sand art, arrange the granules of sand slowly. The most important thing is to compact the sand and not allow air between the granules which can spoil the shape by any slight shaking of the bottle.

Woodworking Tip
When cutting intricate fretwork pieces on your scroll saw there is always a fuzz left on the back of the piece. I find using jeweler type files works best to remove those "fuzzies".

Need a tag for your gift? Need favor tags for your party or shower? I would love to help! Browse my shop or request a custom order.
Paper Craft Tip
Clean solid glue off your work table with just a kleenex. Rub the area vigorously and the glue sticks to the kleenex almost instantly. Do this often to prevent getting sticky glue all over your papers and embellishments.

Claire and Lydia started Armiga Gifts in January 2010 from their love of inspirational and creative gifts, that are often hard to find on the high street. Their site features the work of a number of talented Cambridge-area artisans. You'll find original paintings, art photography, jewelry, ceramics and a variety of other hand-made lovelies in their online shop. They also offer Pandora-style silver plated beads and jewelry. Gift boxes and gift wrapping available.
Crafting Tip
1) Avoid using perfume on the area that you are going to wear silver plated jewellery as this can taint the plating. So can direct sunlight so avoid leaving your lovely jewellery in direct sun rays.
3) Finish off your home made candles with a good polish using an old pair of tights.
