I heard the snow is coming

Talk about rainy days and Mondays...

how about rainy days and Monday...Tuesday...Wednesday...

Oh boy, enough all ready. 

Yesterday everyone shopping was talking about the snow that was coming. It did not hit us...not even a flake, but it was cold and damp. It has basically been cold and rainy for a week.  Ugh.  I guess it has me in the mood to get going for winter vignettes.  Hence, the cute snowy penguins...all dressed in birch bark...

LOVE !!

With there sugared beaks....they are so sassy.

they seem to be all amiss about all the people walking around the shop today....

one little girl even called them seagulls...the nerve !!

I found these metal numbers !! They look great on the tree !!

I hope you enjoyed my first glimpse of winter. It is going to be a fabulous Holiday season. I am doing an event in a couple of weeks, which will take me a way from the shop for 4 days during my transition week to flip the entire shop from Fall / harvest / Halloween over to Christmas.  It is really throwing me off...but, you must adapt to the time table and move forward...

That is why I am starting so early.
