Christmas
Snowmen and gingerbread in traditional, tea dyed primitive and contemporary sparkle colors are 3 distinctly different collections all rolled up into one. All our snowmen are original design; fresh, different and unique. They are very well stuffed; folks at the show picked them up and were wowed by their bulk. All snowmen stand on their own. No leaning here. Diverse and unique we are proud to present these pieces to you.
The Sparkletown Collection consists of Mr. Sparkle, Moe, Happy the penguin and Frank, Fred, Frannie and Fergie Frog. These pieces are bright with white bodies and black, red and bright green accents. New, this year, the Sparkletown collection has led the pack as consistent best sellers . They are fat, full, funny and fresh. Sparkletown characters appeal to not only young, contemporary customers but the old guard as well.
The Almost Primitive Collection has been designed for stores whose customers prefer the cozy, warm , primitive look. These characters are all tea dyed and while not authentic “primitive” pieces they do fit in with such décor. Muff, Puff, Fats, Mr. Snow Jangles and a number of smaller pieces make up this collection.
And of course, The Traditional Collection pleases just about everybody. Warm ivory, deep red and forest green accent Freezie, Breezie, Anaisa, Rosie and the gang. Take a look, you’ll have a tough time deciding which way to go. Or try them all.
Harvest Halloween
Distinct metal candle holders, crude cut antique look wood, plush scarecrows and unique paper mache designs make up the Harvest Hollow collection.
Over the 16 years, we’ve been in retail, we’ve discovered that Halloween is a great holiday, you just have to know how to merchandise it. Our products are warm, harvest oriented and popular. No bloody hands or headstones here, just well made harvest touches with class and pizzazz.
Raggedy Anns
In 1977, I suddenly became a single mom of 2 kids under 3. Money was a problem. Needless to say, I didn’t go out nights. So, to keep sane and to supplement a quite meager income, I began to design and make dolls. I sold my dolls to boutiques in what was then known as Old Town, Chicago.
Years went by. Life changed, but my love for doll making has remained. So, dorky, I know, but I still wake up thinking of my newest Raggedy creation.
The Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls in my collection are all my original design. All are easily posable with weighted bottoms and wired arms They are dressed in the traditional country reds and blues that have been eternally popular in this genre of dolls.
