Jim Shore has added Monthly Angels
to his wonderful Heartwood Creek
Collection for 2009.

If you need a lovely gift for an August
Birthday, this just might be the right one! 
 Each of his lovely angels carries a basket
of the flowers for that specific month
and wears a lovely carved skirt that also
features the flower.  To complete
her celebration of the birthday month, she
wears a lovely birthstone crystal necklace

These angels are affordably priced at $20.

This handsome fairy is here to remind us
to "Take Time to Smell the Roses".

Mark Roberts has designed him with rich,
jewel tone fabrics, elegant gold beaded trim,
and delicate silk roses.

The Rose Garden Fairy can be used
all year and makes a splendid gift for
that gardener.

The increasing popularity of poker,
especially Texan hold'em, has
created quite a frenzy worldwide.

If you have someone on your
gift list who is into card games,
this would be a wonderful gift!

This high quality stone resin
card box contains two card decks
and would it certainly dress up
the card table.

Don't forget those bridge players
on your list as well.........
 

Department 56 has added an absolutely
charming and entertaining house to The
Original Snow Village for 2009.

The Dancing Lights House is bedecked
with LED lights on the eaves, windows
and front trees - just charming! 

As if that wasn't enough, just push
that button and watch a synchronized
light show to the music of Deck the
Halls!  When the music sequence
has finished, the lights remain
steady burning.

Don't want to start collecting, but just
want a wonderful lighted house to help celebrate the holidays, this is for you!
 

New Baby?

These sparkling themed mini trees
are making an encore visit to
Fiddlesticks this year.

Themed for baby boy, baby girl,
or our furry friends (dogs and cats,
that is....), these metal trees are
12 inches tall and decorated with
glittery metal and resin themed
mini ornaments.

These mini trees are not just
for Christmas - they make delightful
decorations in a baby's room or
in your den to celebrate that
furry friend.

Happy Birthday

Birthdays are such special days -
what a wonderful way to celebrate
with this decorative Glass Fusion
plate!  All Glass Fusion plates are
food safe so they can be used
for the birthday cake or just as
a birthday decoration.

Bring it out for each special
birthday and add to the excitement
of that special person's day.

Back to School

Bethany is excited with anticipation of
the start of a new school year.

Cradling her beloved kitty, she is off
to the first day of school with her books
and certainly an apple for the teacher!

Bethany can grace your mantle and
encourage enthusiasm for your children
as they anticipate their first day!

Veggies and Fruits

Kitchens have become a new location
for decorating within our homes and
the lovely veggie and fruit creations
by Patience Brewster can certainly
be used as this decorating medium.

Her collection is not just for
Christmas - we have a customer
who planted a bare branch in a pot
and decorated it with these lovely
ornaments - how creative!

A few of these wonderful creations
are also available in Patience's
mini ornament collection (ideal
for smaller spaces!).

Show your Devotion

Show him your love by wearing  this
elegant, reasonably priced lovely work
of art, by artist Kim Lawrence.

This Devotion pendant is silver plated
and coated to prevent tarnishing.  It
hangs gracefully from a fluid snake chain.

If you desire to give this lovely pendant
as a gift, it is presented in a very
handsome black, satin lined gift box.

Remembrance Plaques

Sandra Magsamen will no longer be
represented by Department 56, so
this would be a good time to stock
up on her wonderful remembrance
plaques.

Whether for a special occasion, "over
the hill" birthday, or "just because",
these plaques are lovely way to tell
that special someone just how
much they mean to you!
