Mirror Mirror



Copper-framed Mirror  $175
 
We're not saying you'll be the fairest of them all but this wonderful copper clad framed mirror will make your home fairer by far.  A small 18 inches square this mirror would be perfect in a small entry, an accent piece in a grouping, or even as a series of several hung together.  The copper molds into every curve of the frame and the frame has a handsome deep profile.  We think this mirror will temper the witch and find the Snow White in all of us.  A "must-see" in the shop!


Also, up next on our blog - your invitation to our upcoming artists reception on March 12.  Save the date!

Kissing Frogs

Prices vary  $10 - $100



We love frogs!  We picture them as useful works of art.  They don't have to just hold beautiful stems, we see them holding pens and pencils on a cluttered desk or maybe just a simple pencil holder and paper weight by the phone.  They have a lots of uses that we haven't even thought of yet.  These charming "princes" are all vintage frogs we kissed at our favorite flea markets.  Something about them spoke to us even when they were in a pond with other frogs.  We just saw a prince in each one of them.  Drop by Winnow and kiss one of these for yourself - or for that lonely princess who needs a prince charming.  She will love you for it.  
Please note: these are one-of-a-kind and we cannot guarantee what we will have in the shop at any one time....but we will have something you'll like!

It's A Berry Good Thing


Raspberry $12    Strawberry $20    Plum $24

Aren't these just the best!?!?  These amazing little porcelain berry baskets will simply make you smile.  We love to find everyday useful objects that have been made into something wonderful, and our berry baskets are a perfect example.  The small raspberry tub is just the right size for serving this season's fresh raspberries or blueberries on your lunch or breakfast table.  The midsize open weave basket is a white porcelain relica of the green plastic basket that comes with your favorite strawberries, so recycle the plastic and use a permanent and beautiful container that will work for both storing and serving.  The large basket with open corners is ideal for plums, cherries, and all of the smaller stone fruits that are just starting to come into season - very cool!  These are year round delights and will be a hit on any table.  Each traditional basket detail is copied in clean white porcelain.  Come in and take a flat or two home.  It's a Berry Good Thing! (sorry Martha!)

Divine Romance



handmade cards from Salmonberry Studio  $6
LOVE is in the air - everywhere!  It's that time when chocolates, roses, candy, and champagne say just about everything romantic that you want them to say - but if you want to say a little bit more, express your love on our Salmonberry block print cards.  What a perfect way to say "Be Mine" or "I Love You".  Write out your feelings on a couple of these and tuck one under the pillow or in that perfect spot where he or she will find it and be surpised.   We also have lots of little "I Love You" gifts all over the shop that would go perfectly with one of the cards - maybe  a pair of our angel candle wings or perhaps one of our white porcelain feathers will tickle their fancy - and we all like our fancy tickled! No matter what, you'll want to say..."Be My Valentine!"
