Taking a little break…

 

We will be taking a little break and will be closed from 12/28 – 12/31. (Shaina’s Mixed bag WILL meet, as scheduled, on Monday 12/26 at 7:30pm.)

 

Thank you and happy holidays to all of our customers. This year has truly been a pleasure, and we look forward to continued good times with you in 2012.

The very last shopping day to Christmas has arrived. Stop by TCL today for your last chance to put a little handmade goodness under the tree! In addition to what we’ve featured in this series, we have a fabulous selection of other gifts and stocking stuffers. Happy handmade holidays to all!


 

Made right in nearby Englewood by Tom, Bodhi bath products will make you swoon. These soaps, shea butters, lip balms, and shaving kits are made with all natural ingredients and essential oils. They are perfect for sensitive skin, and the Sweet Feet gift set even comes with a pair of soft bamboo socks. Stop by and pamper yourself or someone else with these gorgeous products.

Everyone knows about Crybaby Quilts baby items, but did you know that Corey also makes these fabulous reversible coasters, pouches, and toiletry bags? The pouches can be used for pencils, cosmetics, toothbrushes, or lunch utensils, and like the coasters, are made from BPA-free laminated cotton. Put a little color into your day with one of these babies!

Your kids might not know what LPs are, but YOU do… There may not be many turntables around anymore, but who says orphaned records should go to waste? Our friend Hope has turned her stash of records into these awesome bowls. We’re in love.

These ceramic vases by Jennifer are not only budget-friendly, but they cheer up a room during those dark winter months. Her mugs are equally festive, but you’ll have to come in quickly for one of those — they don’t stick around long in the shop!
