TEXAS ARTISAN By Rick Clapp
T
he moment you walk into Texas Artisan, you will understand how this neighborhood of a gem has become a Houston destination store. You will be anesthetized by the tantalizing scents and smells of the season. The atmosphere and incredible array of gifts and home décor is where your shopping experience begins. This unique “Little Shop Around the Corner” is solely owned and operated by the marketing, sales, and interior design guru, Terrie Ward. “My goal is to provide our customers with the ultimate shopping experience whether for themselves, a friend, a loved one, or a client,” Terrie explained during a recent visit. Texas Artisan offers a plethora of gifts, original art, and one-ofa-kind home décor items. Texas Artisan boasts works from three accomplished Texas artists: Robin Collins, Mollie Podoll, and Susan Parker. These artists are happy to provide you with a nice piece of art for your home, office, or yacht. Texas Artisan is both corporately and socially responsible. “We donate to charities and non-profits for fundraising purposes, whenever possible. We have decided to become a donation partner with American Heart Association. Texas Artisan will be hosting an upcoming Go Red and Green Event benefitting the American Heart Association on November 18th from 4:00 to 8:00 PM. Everyone is encouraged to attend - just some of the fun activities include live music by Kelly Williams, live art, sip and shop, face painting, and the event has partnered with Amy Doherty and Robinette Company & Catering. Check Facebook or call the store for details. It’s our way of giving back,” stated Ward.
