Final Days of 12 Days of Christmas Event!

You are running out of time!!  Time for holiday shopping and time remaining in our shops 12 Days of Christmas Event!!  You really don’t want to miss out on all these great sales!  Did I mention what all is on sale?  NO?  Well, I guess you will just have to come in to see for yourself!  But I have a huge list of specials in most of our booths to hand you as you walk in the door!  And I have hot cider, snacks and drawings for all kinds of free stuff!!!  You don’t want to miss out on that!

I wanted to share a few items with you that are on remarkable sales – check these out!  Then come back later – hopefully I will get Paige at Hodgepodge to come up to the shop and share with us a Few of HER favorite things!

Love this banjo!  And the price is amazing!!

 

This old world looking Santa is in Vintage Mary and he was a great price to start with – but with her 12 Days of Christmas sale – WOW – perfect for anyone that collects Santas!

 

Charlotte Nelms has marked several of her paintings at a special price – this one just happens to be my favorite.  Thistles!  Love them!  

Another amazing piece by Gail Meyer.  Already an unbelievable price for Gail’s work – but then the 12 Days sales discount! Perfect for any budget!!

Expecting a larger crowd then normal this year?  Need more table space?  This drop leaf table is an amazing deal at $50 from Busy Bees!!!!  I know I want it – don’t you?

Also from Busy Bees, this last set of ornaments bunched up and pretty!  $5 for the entire grouping! 

 

Ellen Markham makes these amazing characters all from recycled wool pieces!  They are all hand made by Ellen herself. You have got to see the quality of these to believe it!  The photos just don’t show you how great these collectible items really are! (Mom – you will love these! Especially her sweet angel!)

Well – that’s all for now!  Better get brewing that apple cider so everyone can have a cup when they stop by ARTifacts today!

Crystal’s Favorite Things!

Here you go!  Enjoy!

See you downtown!

A Few of my Favorite Things - REPOST

We are running out of time – I really think each year we have less and less time between Thanksgiving and Christmas!  Don’t you? I mean, I KNOW there are about the same number of days, but sometimes it just seems like we have less each year. 

I keep having friends ask me, “What do you have up in your shop that you would give as a gift for someone who (INSERT WHAT EVER HERE!)”.  I have only been stumped once.  And they were much more specific…ok, I have to share, because it is just too funny!

Kendall: Thanks for calling ARTifacts, this is Kendall.
Customer:  Yeah, I really need to find a special gift for a family member.  Do you have any wood or metal trouts?
Kendall:  Wood….or….metal….trouts….that is a good one.  Nope, sorry – can’t help you at all!!

True story.  They wanted a wood or metal TROUT.

Anywhoo – here are the answers to everyone that has ever asked me that question (minus the trout lady – wish I could have helped her!!)

 

YOu can go to the photo gallery for a complete description of these items on my list of a Few of my favorite things!!

What are you favorites at ARTifacts? I will share photos, just tell me!

See you downtown!

December 2010 Issue of Clarksville Family Magazine

For many months now, we have done an article with Clarksville Family Magazine featuring a family art project.   This months feature will be our last project because of time restrictions, but here is our last article for all to see!!

We had a great time with this project!  I have a thing for wooden spools.  Who knows why since I don’t really know how to sew (just as my best friend who has spent countless hours trying to help me seam rip all my errors!!).  So, I have been collecting them when I see them – not knowing what to do with them but knowing there must be 100s of ideas out there.

Here are our Christmas ornament projects all made with wooden spools.  Get the magazine at a local stand to see the whole article, but here are all the photos from our day of crafting fun (even when the kids got bored and the Mom’s kept going!!
