Such an accomplishment!

Happy Sunday

My new charms have been selling fast...

Christie and I had the pleasure to be invited by Julian and Ray to their Christmas Holiday Party last night. So much fun meeting all these wonderful antique dealers, owners and collectors. The food, incredible! Diet? I don't think so.....

Two soldering classes have been set for February, so excited....a shadow box class and a crown class. Details on Classes blog


The decorations are up.....



I can't get rid of these 2 guys. Alan's and Raffaele's elementary school projects. They always show up at Christmas time.

On my way to the workshop to clean and organize.
Ciao for now
Rita

  3. Rita, it was such a pleasure having you and Christie at our home last night for our Christmas gathering! And your wonderful gift you made for us, will be treasured for many many years to come. It is our first offical Tallulah's Antique Closet item. It is such a warm and welcome gift. And now that the stess is over, of making sure all the decorations where in thier place at the house, we will be able to sit back and enjoy your bottle of wine you gave us in the garden and enjoy the evening. Thank you soooo very much again. Love Raymond and Julian

  4. Hi Rita,
    I love your beautiful new charms. You have got to be the busiest artist I know. You are always whipping up gorgeous things. I have been doing a little bit of creating lately. Nothing grand, just a few little gifts for family and friends.
    Your holiday decor is so pretty, and of course my favorites are the cute little snowmen made by your guys.
    I hope you have a wonderful week.
    hugs

  6. Ciao Rita! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your work is lovely! Your upcoming classes sound so fun. I did enter you in the draw. Enjoy the holidays!

    Now I'm going to leave your blog open so that I can enjoy the Italian music, (my parents are from Abruzzi and Puglia).
