This coming Saturday, December 11th, we'll be hosting Wishnests, a line of home décor and house blessings made in the USA. Alise Sheehan is the creator and designer of this unique line of gifts and house blessings called Wishnests. Her nature inspired, original designs are hand sculpted then cast in lead free pewter and combined with various materials including semi-precious stones. The powerful symbolism in Alise Sheehan's designs make them warm and welcoming holiday gifts.
Alise's designs are sold at over 600 stores in the U.S., including Nordstrom and Coldwater Creek. Representative Lisa Davis will be joining us this Saturday with a beautiful array of Alise's nature-inspired designs, which can be viewed on their website: www.alisesheehan.com
SHOP, DINE & DONATE IN DOWNTOWN NAPA! Every Thursday night between 5-8PM, 20% of our proceeds will go to the Napa Food Bank. The next two Thursday evenings, local artist Cathie Witters will be personalizing her ornaments for customers. Cathie's beautifully hand-painted ornaments and holiday decorations (picture at right) are popular with our customers and are considered to be collectibles by many. If you're out and about in downtown Napa on Thursday nights in support of local businesses and nonprofits, please join us for a glass of wine or hot cider and holiday treats!
Artisan Jennifer Utsch (she's such a light and SO much fun!) will be joining us with her inspiring and colorful affirmation bells. Many of you will recognize Jen's bells (pictured at left), which are extremely popular in our store year 'round. We have a huge selection available at both stores, and Jen will be bringing her "add-ons" and a few other products as well.
Jendala brings a smile in it's uniqueness, forming words and shapes from recycled metal. Jen's "soulful" art will uplift the spirit and encourage positive thoughts. Her products also include photo frames, mobiles, flags, jewelry holders, key holders, and necklaces.
These inspiring reminders are handcrafted in Northern California from salvaged and reclaimed materials. The metal is cut and powder coated, then assembled with select beads and bells purchased from sustainable workshops in India and Indonesia.
For pictures and more information, please visit Jen's website: www.jendala.com
We hope to see you soon and wish you all a playful and joyful holiday season!
