March 2013

What's new?
     We had a great time at the Atlanta and New York gift shows and found some new additions we think you'll really enjoy.
 
Concord Gentlemen's Accessories - We found a little something for the guys....Concord Lane walking sticks and umbrellas.  These handcrafted accessories "enhance everyday life with useful objects that delight the senses."  They offer practical, beautiful gifts that speak true appreciation and care for their recipient.
 
Why not add to the romance of a candlelit dinner with 
a beautiful lighter?  We found the best looking refillable utility lighter - ever!  Does your lady steal your grill lighter to light her bath time candles? She won't have to anymore -These little beauties make a great addition for the candle lover or the person who has everything.   Josh - Sonic Pod
 
Sonic Pods - Have you ever purchased sound equipment in a jewelry store?  Now you can!  To the right is our friend Josh, instead of reading about these great little gadgets, it would be much more fun for him to show you
.

Metal Boutique initials and monograms
We met a really neat family in Atlanta with a new business we wanted to share.  They used to produce stands for propane tanks.  When the propane business slowed and the contracts dried up, a dinner conversation led to experimentation, and they ended up with unique personalized gifts.  We have them in three different styles, come by and see.

party napkins and shakers
We've elaborated on the greeting cards and gift bags you've come to love.  The party napkins are for a standard cocktail napkin holder (like our Mariposa gifts) and, along with the shakers,  make great conversation starters at any event.  They also make a great card when tied to the top of your package - perfect when you want to share the sentiment of a greeting card in a practical way.
 
Floating Circus Wall Clocks
Some of you may remember our wonderful fairy tale and vintage toy inspired clocks for kids.  We found them in New York and had to have them back.  So, they're here, completing our kids' corner with the swinging pendulums of Alice's Tea Party and Old Smokey. 
 
Salisbury Home Collection
We have partnered with Salisbury for many years, a family business in Maryland, with hand crafted sterling silver and pewter gifts.  In New York we got to see their new polished aluminum tableware.  These statement pieces are, "inspired by the American way of life, created with craft and care, designed to add warmth, style and elegance to your everyday."   
 
Sweet Shop USA
"These are a few of my favorite things..."  Where else can you find chocolate and diamonds at the same counter?  Mount Pleasant, Texas is the home of these delectable little goodies.  Each truffle is hand rolled, hand dipped, hand decorated and hand packaged to ensure the quality and care that are worthy of your gift giving.

 

 
Coming Soon...

"He has perfected the technique of creating models from natural elements and, after models are made, manipulating these 'copies of nature' into beautiful jewelry. Using bronze, sterling silver or gold and natural stones and pearls, Michael's designs have become well known for their remarkable craftsmanship and beauty."  He is proud that his wife and three children all participate in the business.

Feature Product
-LizTech-
We announced on our facebook that we had found her...and here she is:
LizTech
We consider her the long lost daughter of Grandmother's Buttons and Ayala Bar.  
She encompasses the antique romance of vintage remnants  to make modern, wearable art. 
Handmade with love...
Jill Elizabeth started in the jewelry business in 1985 redesigning costume pieces.  She now designs and creates this beautiful, original fashion  jewelry in her studio in East Stroudsburg, PA.  Her inspiration from  the American Southwest, Egyptian and Indian mythology can be seen in her pieces and their names.
