New Clock Designs from Paper Wings Studio

We just received a fresh shipment of clocks from Paper Wings Studio. We have restocked most of the sold-out designs and have added a bunch of new designs. Check out some of them below and in our online shop.

These handcrafted whimsical clocks are created at Paper Wings Studio, an artist in Vancouver, Washington. He creates these wonderful, fantastical images and uses them in clocks, plaques and more. These look great on a desk, chest or bookshelf. Use one in the kitchen, in your office or hanging in the bathroom ... to keep you on time! Super gift for Fathers' Day (which is Sunday, June 15th) or for graduation. Bring one to the next housewarming party or open house, as a thank you for dinner or BBQ, or just because...

We sell these clocks for $36.95 (battery included). They can hang on the wall or you can purchase a nifty little clock stand for $1.95.

Silver Solder Jewelry Handmade by Susan

These silver soldered pendants and charms are Handmade by Susan right here in Los Gatos. The pendants are just right for wearing on a necklace, using as a bookmark, linking on a charm bracelet, or just for hanging from a handbag, bottle or backpack. Small ones can be made into earrings, while larger ones make great ornaments.

The pendants are made from glass and lead-free silver solder. Susan works with a number of glass sizes and shapes, and would be happy to customize one for you. In fact, with Mothers' Day coming up (Sunday May 12th) you may want Susan to make one for you using a special saying or photo! Please contact us for more information.

Paper weights, bookmarks and magnets are also available. She has used photos, symbols and various types of artwork in crafting these pendants.  We have a large selection available in our shop in Los Gatos and some are available online. 

These Handmade by Susan pieces are priced from $12.95 to $19.95, with special one-of-a-kind pieces priced from $24.95 to $39.95. These all come with a length of ribbon or cord and either a gift box or an organza bag.

Goodie Bags and Paper Straws

It seems like we always have a need for little bags for goodies, popcorn or snacks ... and paper straws bring back loads of memories of milk shakes and ice cream sodas at the fountain in Woolworth's. We have them both! But don't stop at popcorn and sodas. Try using these paper gems in crafts, as gift bags, as part of table decorations, or just to jazz things up at a picnic.

Colorful Paper Bags in stripes, dots and chevrons (5"x7") $7.95 for a package of 24

Paper Straws in stripes, dots and hearts (7 3/4") $6.95 for a package of 25

Use these with baker's twine, washi tape, pretty ribbons, paper flowers and colorful paper ... and we have all that stuff too!

Great for picnics, tailgates, BBQs ... anytime you want to have fun!

Try making some flags or hearts to put on the straws

We pulled these ideas off the internet

Great Spring colors!

To top it all off, these bags and straws are made in the good old USA! Just another product we keep local.

Metal Letter Magnets

These metal letters are just a whirl of color. They are handmade locally of a thick gauge metal. Each letter is painted and has a magnet on the back, so these can be used as magnets or standalone letters. Use them in craft projects, to mark metal storage bins, to hold up photos on the fridge, or to spell out love messages. Typical size is about 1-1/2 inches tall. Colorful. Practical. Fun!

Metal Letter Magnets • $4.95 each
