Captain John Smith 2008

Fall / Winter News, 2009
 
Welcome Fall!  Welcome Winter!

The changing of the seasons brings so much fun and anticipation.  The leaves are already showing some of their color and caramel apples appear at our favorite markets.  Before we know it glowing pumpkins will dance on our doorsteps and then the smells of Thanksgiving will be gracing our homes.  AND shortly after that, Santa will make his rounds down the chimney with something special.  (I hope!)
 
Don’t forget to join us this October 16th and 17th and December 4th and 5th for our Annual Open Houses.  Bring your specially marked postcard with you and receive 10% off your entire purchase!  Look for them arriving in your mailboxes soon.
 
This year we have invited two new artists to join us – Wendy and Heather of Two Flakes.  Wendy and Heather use Swarovski crystals to create beautiful snowflakes, words expressions, candy canes and swags for the holidays.  All their creations are one-of-a-kind and simply breathtaking.  We hope you’ll take this opportunity to stop in and “catch” one of their snowflakes for the winter season.
 
We are proud to announce that “Captain John Smith”, to your right, was chosen for the 2009 Early American Life Magazine’s Holiday Edition.  That makes us one of their Traditional Craftsman of the year for 4 years in a row.  We are featured this year as well and we think it is the best photograph to date.  The magazine should be on sale now at large booksellers.  Look for us on page 62.
 
On a last note, we still have a few collectible Gingerbread House and Painted Canvas Design items from the Estate Sale that we will be showing at the Open Houses.  This is your opportunity to snap up something you missed from the past!
 
We look forward to seeing you soon.
 
Joanne
