Another Successful Show


The Spring Cottage Life Show was, again, a great success. Saturday was the most crowded and extremely busy for us in the booth. The canoe dip sets and pates were the hit of the show. They are the perfect cottage purchase and many were buying just for themselves. We sold out both Friday and Saturday. Looking forward to the fall show in November. Many thanks to Judy for her help over the years. I will miss her at future shows. She was wonderful to have in the booth with me through those long show hours.

Spring Cottage Life Show



This year Ardith One will have booth # TP 22 in the Trading Post. We are looking forward to seeing a lot of customers. We will have the most popular item at the fall show, the canoe pates by Daniel Maxwell, at the booth again. We sold out in the fall so don't be disappointed and leave it to the end of the show. We will have boxes there if you are giving the "canoe" as a gift. The show hours are Friday, 12 noon till 9, Saturday, 10 till 6 and Sunday, 10 till 5. Come by and say "Hello". It's always nice to see our customers at the show.

New Potter

We have just received our first shipment of pottery by Maggie Murdoch. Maggie was mainly known for her mosiac work but is now producing pieces that don't represent any particular flora or fauna but certainly have that botanical feel to them. She is using many combinations of production (wheel-thrown, slab, coil and carving), glazes (cool blue/grey, acid green and coral) and methods of application(dipping, pouring, spraying and brush) to produce this unique work. We are very excited to have her pottery in our store. It's definitely different from anything else we have.
