bit of a heads up!!!

once we get thru the madness of xmas and the holidays and new years eve....  we're planning on shutting down the shop for the first two weeks of january for a little refreshening....  the shop needs a fresh coat of paint, we'll be slightly expanding the space and re arranging a few thangs....  we should be open again come Thursday January 19th. 

until then, all sorts of lovely stuff to create, a few sales along the way (we'll need the room) and unique holiday
presents are here!!

with today's snow, everything that left here had a crisp white feel... here's a couple of pics...

Today it snowed!!! Joseph Fuda, creator of the spinograph lent me his contraption!!!
