    Hey you creaive blogger you!!

    Sorry to say, contest for crystals is over, and i had not thought about selling them,
    but, good news!

    I will gladly sell some to you.
    Anyone else want some??

    How about 3/$1.00. (plus shipping).
    Maybe $5.00 minimum so it is worth going to PO?? Or is that more than you want?
    What do you think??

    Blessings

    Hey Joan,
    The owls are gnarly, old, old andirons, they are resting on the urns, inside cool metal rings...
    I thought the owls would be perfect for a Fall show!
