Petticoat Review: TJ Cervantes Art

Looking for a hand-crafted detail to add to your wedding decor or a unique gift for your spouse?  Then look no further!  TJ Cervantes Art is the brain child of retired art teacher, Terry Cervantes.  Lending to some very creative pieces, Terry's background in pottery, drawing, and painting are the key players in this lovely shop.  All pieces are made on a pottery wheel, hand molded, and then fired and glazed in her studio.  These innovative designs are a lovely mix of functionality and style, making TJ Cervantes Art the perfect stomping ground for the artistically-inclined.

The FP Staff was lucky enough to receive one of the shop's lovely jewelry bowls in the mail.  Check out our pictures of the fabulous item:
