Emily Ozier Artwork

We've noticed a lot of you are reaching our site and blog while searching for Emily Ozier artwork and paintings! We are currently working on an "Artist Spotlight" blog post/article for all of our local artists...and Emily will hopefully be one of them. We'll ask the artists a lot of questions and basically just get to know them better.
In the meantime, we thought we would post some questions and answers about the EMYO artwork that we carry and some general guidelines for buying original art at our store.

Find more at http://shopbellavita.com/emyo


How many EMYO paintings do you have in your store right now?
Normally, we have 3-6 at any given time. If you catch us after a trunk show, we may have 10 or more. As of today(5/27), we have 6 in stock.

Where can I see them?
We don't have pictures posted on our site yet. We are working on an efficient and easy way to post and maintain all of our products online. Try looking through older postings on this blog and you'll find some pictures....however they are likely not in stock anymore. Don't hesitate to call and ask us to email the pictures of what we currently have. We do it all the time.
Phone: 901-850-0892

What sizes do you carry?
They vary and the sizes in stock are completely at the artists discretion.
Common sizes are:
30x30
36x36
48x48

What are the prices?
They vary as well! Prices normally range from $700-$2900 depending upon subject matter.

Can I take them for a "test drive"?
Yes. We allow artwork to go out "on approval" for 24 hours(subject to change). Ask us for more details.

Have a great week!

Fun Links - 05/20/2009

Don't dare click any of these links unless you want to lose an hour or two of your life! While scouring the internet and trying to keep up with the design world, we come across some cool and incredibly useful stuff that we thought we would pass along to ya.

Anthrolpologie Hardware
One of us here has already decided to order one of these as a funky addition to an otherwise drab kitchen pantry door. Although, you can also find authentic/rustic/vintage door knobs on Ebay as well.


Wedding Paper Divas
We do have plenty of stationary here at the store, but sometimes you need something customized for special occasions such as engagement announcements, rehearsal dinners and more. The colors and designs available here are awesome and so un-cheesy like many of the other stationary sites and custom cards your "crazy Aunt" was going to make for you.

Happy Mother's Day!

If you received a gift from us for Mother's Day, we hope you LOVE it! But, we do understand that sometimes you get a gift that's NOT what you wanted(aarrgh, what was he thinking!!) , not your "style", or not your size(love it, but he knows I dont were Xtra Small!
The day after a holiday is very busy here at Bella Vita with all of the returns/exchanges, so we'd like re-iterate our "exchange" policy that we adopted in March and is posted at the counter and on your receipt:

We accept exchanges only within 30 days of the original purchase date. 

If you have any questions about a gift you received, please email(customercare@shopbellavita.com) or give us a call(850-0892)

Thanks!

We'd like to thank everyone that braved the weather and flu scare for coming to our trunk show Thursday night! It was exciting to see so many fresh, new products in the store and to have our local artists there as well. For those of you who missed it, we snapped some pictures and they are posted below.

Left to right: Megan McNeely(of Bella Vita), Paige Abernathy(Vintage Gypsy), Stephanie Singley(of Bella Vita), Melissa Lewis(Off the Wall), Emily Ozier(EMYO art)











FYI...
1) We still have 10+ EMYo paintings in the store in all shapes, sizes and prices. One of them is 7ft x 6ft. You can't miss it!

2) The coffee tables and islands from Off the Wall are gorgeous...even more so in person.

3) Vintage Gypsy jewelry has a new display and will make wonderful Mother's day gifts.
