I have never left a testimonial before, but as soon as I opened my package today I knew I had to. My box was filled with joyful tiny shrines and other treasures, plus a few surprises, all thoughtfully packed with an invoice with real writing by real humans! My friend was on the phone as I went through everything and she was laughing at how happy I sounded. I will be sure to spread the word about your wonderfulness! You made my day- thank you!

Not to be confused with the other Vegas, although Las Vegas, NM has quite a reputation as movie and TV locations....but enough about me. When I discovered Retro Cafe Art, my headache cleared up,the sun came out, my phone immediately recharged, and all the laundry, garbage, and cat litter cleaned up. The coffee tastes better and the air is cleaner. I have found my Happy Place.

I love love your site. I've been looking for shrines for ages and other web sites charge way to much to ship to P.R., so it was a pleasant surprise to see your shipping rates are more than reasonable. And your products are AMAZING! I got my goodies faster than I expected. I will be recommending your site to my students and of course you can expect me to be shopping again.

I get so giddy when I see you've made NEW thing, and especially new stencils!! I really like your new series of hearts. And the NEW Stand-up Evergreen Trees, with holes! What fun! I am seeing these "holey" trees, single or a few lined up on a mantle, with tiny candles behind them and the flickering lights shining through the tiny holes! oooh. aaah. Keep up the good-- and very original--work!

Your artwork is beautiful and inspiring, Kristin. I ordered some of the antique China doll heads from you and they arrived today very promptly. They are beautiful! Even better than shown and I am very, very pleased. It was definitely worth getting your preparation service added. The necks are nicely cut and smooth, ready for work. If I ever use them for anything, that is. They're so beautiful and I'm just enjoying looking at them for now. Thanks so much!
