 This is a new concept that we are going to try.  Over the years, we have had many requests for a class or workshop geared at helping folks complete a project (or two) that they have either been struggling with or just need a little extra boost of confidence or inspiration.  We have enough space to accommodate about 4 people with projects and working area not to exceed about 4 feet.  Might be a little difficult with a large dollhouse, but a roombox or other project will have more than enough working space.  Our goal is to help you complete that long-standing project and with other people in the workshop who knows what additional ideas might come to mind.  We figure it will be a relaxing day of comraderie and sharing.  I may not be able to remain with you the entire time, but as time allows I'll be in the workroom to help with any areas or things that need help (or moral support).  Our Finish it Fridays program will be held on one Friday a month, but we will require registration with a $5 fee.  The fee will be your committment to attend.  Every Finish it Friday you register and attend will make you eligible to win a gift certificate drawn from all names entered in the Finish it Fridays participation box.   Our first Finish it Friday will be held on June 7, 2013.  Tentative plans are for the First Friday of each month, but we'll let you know as soon as we confirm the dates.

 Just a reminder that we have a wonderful collection of fairy garden items as well as garden kits including a variety of basics to get you started on your fairy garden project.  Some of the items are handcrafted and others are resin molds that will withstand moderate weathering with a little pre-treatment.  A series of delightful little fairies, tables and chairs, and assorted garden fixtures are among the assortment.  Stop by soon to collect your pieces and bring a little bit of whimsy into your home, patio or yard.  Remember, that fairy doors are still hugely popular and one-inch (1:12) scale dollhouse doors are perfect for creating that magical entrance to the land of dreams and wishes.
