STAVING OFF THE WINTER CHILL

The winter chill is upon us and for those of us who enjoy the snow and cold it is great.  For others who only embrace the negatives of Winter such as snow storms, shoveling cars and driveways, bad road conditions and more, it is probably a drudge.  We’ve decided to try and  find a way to turn around those negative views with a wonderful array of items from gifted indie artisans and vintage dealers.  The assortment we have discovered are sure to bend the most stubborn minds.
