Hi Welcome to my shop! Happy 2025 Season!
I am happy to announce this is my 40th Business Anniversary!!!!
I hope you enjoy seeing old favorites and that my NEW designs become NEW favorites!
If you have visited before, Welcome back, if you have just discovered me,I hope you find things that you love.
It has been my joy to design and hand make each piece. Ornaments have a special place in my heart. Many people have found it is a great reason to collect. When you take out that special place you keep them, the memories flood back.
Please pass my shop on to your friends. If you have any suggestions for future designs please let me know, I love to hear from you.
I really don’t know where this last year has gone! I have designed a number of new ornaments. Some are additions to existing Collections and others are new figures of their own.
You will notice that some of my ornament figures have gone up in cost by a few dollars and others have gone down. Like the rest of the world I have been effected by supply costs,but I’m doing my best to make pieces affordable.Please note how “very” detailed my ornaments are and have only become more so.


I am also interested in doing wholesale orders! All questions welcome!
2025 Marks My 40th Year in Business

On a late Spring day in 1985, I had an appointment with the buyer of the Museum of American Folk Art. It was located on 53rd Street in Mid-Town Manhattan.

I drove into NYC with my two year old daughter, her 11 year old big brother and my always supportive mother and a cardboard carton of things I had made in the hopes of getting an order of “something” to be sold in the lovely museum shop.
She selected 1 of this and 2 of that and then she took out my Snowman with a Pipe ornament (I called him “ Bing”, she then said,” Oh you are going to hate me by October!”
I air I didn’t think so and she ordered 12 dozen ornaments!
And so it began…
Market Square” Made in America” trade show in Valley Forge,Pa. The International Gift Show at the Javits Convention Center in New York City…wonderful shops all over the country and amazingly wonderful, giving women who helped me, advised me and mentored me.
The gift industry, as everything else has changed many times over but my love of what I do and the blessing to be able to do it has endured. So here we go into the 41st with an amazing joy that this has been a part of my life!
Merry Christmas!
