We have a “little” something for everyone here at B3 — even the kids! We’re fortunate to have Four Eyes Handmade, creations by Beth Cummings, in the Blue Buddha Artisan Market.
Her designs reflect her love of Chicago and other fun geeky items for the rugrat bunch. She also designs throw pillows and iron-on patches. In fact, her Ctrl Alt Del pillows were featured on the set of “Two and a Half Men” in 2011.
Stop by the Blue Buddha Boutique Artisan Market (1127 W. Granville, Chicago) to check out Four Eyes Handmade’s items, or visit her Etsy shop online.
You asked, and we listened! We are re-launching our tee spring campaign!
Do you love chainmaille so much you just want to shout it from a mountain top? We know the feeling!
While we can’t give you a mountain, we can provide you with this rockin’ tee shirt (in three different styles) that will let everyone know that you are a proud mailler.
This classic design will be the first is a series of Blue Buddha Teespring campaigns.
This is a limited edition tee – grab yours before it’s too late
Cat Painter (yes, that IS her real name — how great is that?), toils away in her Chicago studio, designing and creating tools for every day life.
Cat says, “I am always looking for the right tool for the job and when I can’t find it I often start sketching – from wishing I could find a reusable market bag that was compact, washable, roomy, and strong, to solving my husband’s problem of itchy, ill-fitting aprons. Since opening my Etsy shop in 2013, ideas have also come from shoppers and customers — whether it’s adding pockets to aprons or expanding table linens beyond Chicago (coming soon).”
Those Chicago table linens are one of the highlights of the Blue Buddha Artisan Market display. Walking by our retail storefront windows, you can’t miss the city’s blue stripe and red stars on table runners, napkins and aprons.

The Mini Oval Bracelet is delightfully slinky and delicate. Even better? It’s reversible!

The finished piece is just a half inch wide, but it is wonderfully intricate in look and feel. Vote for your favorite color combo today.
