This has been a very busy Autumn, as the leaves fall I have been assembling and selling new pieces that reflect the colors of the season. 
Different events have been Oktoberfest related:

Oktoberfest at Hunter Mountain

We had a fabulous showing at the Oktoberfest at Hunter mountain in the Catskills. The first day the weather was a bit chilly being extremly windy and blowing everything away but we managed to still have a great time and Sunday's weather was picture perfect. The German music in the backround along with the beer, sausages and beautiful foliage was an ideal background for a wonderful festival. Will post some pictures soon

A fun time was had by all at Hunter Mountain's Celtic Festival on Aug. 21st & 22nd.
We all had the luck of the Irish until Sunday when the wind, rain & temperature felt more like a November Nor'easter than the end of summer. Thanks to everyone who stopped by my booth.

Join me this Saturday, August 28 between 11 to 5pm in Haines Falls, NY for the 2010 Mountaintop Historical Society Open House. Come see some new designs.
