So Many New Works from So Many Hands...


Wow what a wonderfully blessed busy day it was in the shop today!!! Lots of new faces and many many of our favs popped in today!
We had tots shopping for Mama for Mothers Day and school kids shopping for Teacher Appreciation Week gifts, always a lot of fun when kids are in the shop!!!

Had the added blessing of cuddling a lil one while Grandma paid for her purchases...ahhh nothing like the smell of a baby is there????

Below I am sharing a smattering of pictures of new items that have just arrived within the last couple days.....and some...well... they are already sold!!!
Like I said we are soooo blessed!!! Take a peek below...


More amazing dolls from Works of Our Hands....


This is the Herb lady.... another wonderful doll from Cindy and Gail...


Above and below more beautifully detailed handcrafted wool pillows
from Cindy and Gail...



This angel is absolutely beautiful!
Her clothing was made from vintage items and she has such a dainty and delicate feel....
and she flew off to her new home today......

The neat prim bench below was made by Darrell,
pillows on it are from Faye, Cindy and Gail...


Sampler by Tammy, grungy dolls by June...

This vignette below sits on a neat handcrafted bench from Terry C. too...

The pictures I took below just don't do this new cabinet justice!
Jenn created this one in-house and its wonderful, from the style, size and shape to the details on the door to the vintage handle, just awesome.
Jenn makes the most beautiful furniture! No wonder she is always swamped with special commissioned orders!!!! Her craftsmanship shows!



This lil prim hen, chicks and eggs are all from Tammy, and the handcrafted walnut market basket comes from the Reed family....awesome....

Since everyone's favorite local florist closed we have been picking up more floral orders, including prom flowers, bridal flowers, cemetery arrangements as well as others.
We recently bought out a truckload of flowers and probably have at least a dozen of any type of color flower you could imagine. We are getting ready to do some remodeling to make more room for the addition of an expanded floral dept and you will see many changes real soon!


Neat lil cabinet with re-purposed shutter door front made by Darrell,
nice size piece, could suit many purposes.

This sweet lil doll/pet bed made by Terry C. and mini quilts
and pillows by Kathy and Tammy are sooo sweet!
They would make a great addition to anyone's home!

Large handwoven hamper from the Reed family,
with one of Junes grungy bunnies on top
nestled next to some tissue wrapped posies...


The picture below is one of a few framed vintage advertisements
created and framed by Tina. This one features Victrola's!

Better stop in soon for your Mothers Day gifts.
As always we gift wrap free, and offer gift certificates everyday!
