Oh My Gosh, Look at the New Things

Yep, that's right we have Putka Pods, and lots of them, come on in to get your bag for only $3.99 each. You can't even begin to decorate for fall without these.

Below you will find the most adorable fairies around. My dear friend Denise has been hard at it again. Her new little jar fairies are just so sweet. Sure to melt any heart. And the story on the back of the jar will delight whoever recieves it. Talk again about Maine Made.......well here they are. Can't wait to see all the other ones that are being made.
And the last thing I have for you today is, the cutest little lamp made out of reproduced wasp traps. They are soooooo beautiful all lit up. They look great in all these fall displays.


Hope you all got your coupon for 40% off on the last newsletter. I think this month we got 38 of them back. That isn't to bad, I am glad that some of you are taking advantage of the savings. If you haven't signed up yet for the newsletter you can do so @ www.shopsilkweeds.com so that you will be able to get the next newsletter with money savings coupons on it.

It's Friday

Just got done making about 100 pounds of fudge, all kinds like Raspberry Cream, Raspberry Chocolate, Heath Bar, Snickers, Chocolate Mint, Peanut Butter, PB/Chocolate, PB Explosion, Ameretto, and so many more. Yesterday it was about 60 more pounds of Penuchi and Divinity. So it has been a busy couple of days. Last night I watched The Oprah Effect and I decided that I just need to get my fudge in the hands of an Oprah Producer, that is all I have to do. Now if you all have any ideas of how to do that just leave me a comment here and maybe between all of us we can come up with an idea to get the fudge to them and we can become part of the Oprah Effect. I couldn't take pictures of the fudge today becasue it has to set up so I will enlighten you with a picture of the fudge board this week sometime. Maybe even tomorrow if I get to work early enough.
But here are a few pictures of some hand work done by Connie, a wonderful lady that lives down the road from the store. She brings us a new piece or two almost weekly. She does absolutely wonderful work and we are beginning to get a following of people who request her pieces. Thanks goodness for Connie. We love her and her work.
Just in time for fall, Pumpkins

My favorite flowers
She even quilted this wall hanging
