When strolling through the store the other day, camera in hand, I noted that there are several items that the dealers have recently added to their spaces that would be perfect additions to cozy up the home for fall.  Take, for example, the lovely print (directly above) of a wooded path, the green and cream cabinet next to it, the floral prints with tones of orange and yellow, green glass juice glasses, and – of course – a barn owl to greet your guests as they enter your home.

The store is looking beautiful and feels so cozy.  To add to the coziness, we serve hot cider on the weekends.  Stop on by to while away some time and see all of the new things that are coming in daily.  Plenty of holiday linens to adorn your table, too!

The House of Santa is filled to the rafters with Christmas decor.  Because there is so much to offer, we opened up a separate building behind our main building to showcase everything for sale.  If you have any questions as to where to find The House of Santa, our staff will be happy to guide you to the North Pole, well, out back at least.

More On The House Of Santa

P1010074

Remember waking up on Christmas morning with the excitement and anticipation of what Santa left for you under the Christmas tree?  Well, if that wasn’t enough to endure as a child, the feeling has been similar for us at the shop as we waited with great patience as Danny set up his Christmas shop out in the back of our store.  All of the us who work at the store have been soooo excited for the Christmas store, “The House Of Santa”, to open.  And it has been worth the wait! 

There are several rooms that are filled to the brim with all kinds of Christmas decor – and something for every style – mod, vintage, kitcsh, old world and whimsy.

We are super excited to announce that The House Of Santa is open!  What is The House Of Santa?  Well, it is 2500 square feet of nothing but Christmas items for sale.  For over a month, Danny (one of our dealers) and his crew worked on decorating the back building and filling it with nothing but Christmas decor.  Danny has collected items all year long to fill this space.  There are new items as well as vintage ones – tons of ornaments, blow molds, wreaths of all sizes, garlands, Santa figurines, stockings – just to name a few. 

The hours for The House Of Santa are Wednesday – Sunday, 11 AM till 6 PM.  Stop on by for a cup of cocoa and a treat.  You may even find yourself humming a little Christmas diddy, too.

 

More pictures will be posted soon, however it is so much better in person!  :)

Holiday Scents For Your Home

P1010137

P1010138

With the holidays just right around the corner, we are stocking up on our Bridgewater Candles and filling the shelves with scents such as Dear Santa (my favorite), Apple Pie, Caramel Apples, Vanilla Cinnamon…just to name a few.  The candles are available in a large or small jar.  Their natural Soy Blend allows for a clean burn with a burn time of 140-160 hours for the large jar and 65-85 hours for the small jar. 

 

With the purchase of each candle, a donation is made to feed a child for a day.  Because of Bridgewater’s generosity in sponsoring children in need, we are proud to be carrying their beautiful candles – and our customers love them, too.

 

Also available are reed diffusers, sachets, melting wafers and votive candles.   These make wonderful gifts for that special friend, teacher or neighbor.

If ever something old can take you on a trip down memory lane, it would be a toy doll or stuffed animal.  As children, most of us had a favorite stuffed toy or dolly that we took with us every where we went.  When customers walk into Elisabeth’s doll corner, there are comments that are often made about remembering such a doll or toy that are for sale inside a case, or two.

 

Elisabeth offers a variety of antique composition dolls, Story Book dolls, porcelain dolls, Steiff animals, and miniature doll furniture for sale.  On top of her cases are larger items – from antique doll strollers, children’s chairs and baby cribs.  She brings new items in weekly, so there is always something new to take a look at and purchase.

 

She also does doll restorations for customers who would like to bring back a loved piece to its original condition.  Elisabeth does amazing work and will schedule a consultation for those who would like to bring in their dolls for her to either look at for repair or give an appraisal on.  Her contact information is shown on her business card in the second photo.  There is even a private corner now in the store for Elisabeth to meet with customers and you will be surrounded by all of her amazing dolls that are offered for sale.
