Christmas update . . . Pacific Galleries









What resonates in your heart for Christmas?  For me, it's always

been anything ANGEL!  When joining the "Blue Birds"

(pre-"Campfire Girl") as a child, I was elated when

the troop selected my idea of "Angels" as our

troop name . . . Blue Bird Angels!









I've also always had a thing for anything "candle" . . . and

frequently drew candles on my home-made

Christmas cards to family & friends.








These tiny village houses and little gnomes filled my

heart with wonder . . . I loved staring at

the tree for hours--still do!!!







The all-out elegance of the season is reflected (quite literally)

in the mirrored-mosaics on this hand-carved

deer . . . GIANT champagne bottle

needs no explanation,

right?  Of course

it's empty!







The silver horn is a Boy Scouts Bugle.  The antler, meat-carving

set on the left has sterling cuffs; the carved-bone set on the

right is made to look like elk-hooves!!!!!!!

The heavy, standing crucifix is so

unique . . . enamelware

over cast iron!








There are hanging metal baskets for your porch greenery,

as well as wicker baskets that work very 

well for small, live trees--or

 fill with pinecones for

the fireplace.








Le Poulet is only one of several gorgeous

taxidermy birds in my booth.

Perfect *winter* decor

for months to

come!!







Imagine snuggling by the fire in this gorgeous,

antique wing chair--I love the

exaggerated lines!!







A gift for that someone who has absolutely EVERYTHING?

How about this vintage "Ride RUDY" mercantile

amusement ride????  Please come visit my

booth--Madison Park 14--at Pacific

Galleries in Seattle.  I'll keep

adding  even  MORE

holiday decor . . .

Pre-Holiday at Pacific Galleries







Yes, the holidays are fast approaching . . . but we're holding out

just a *bit* longer with autumnal influences

in our booth at Pacific Galleries

in Seattle, WA!!!






Taxidermy birds--including a Tibetan pheasant, two chickens,

a European chukar, and a stunning set of ring-neck 

fighting pheasants--are fabulous for 

fall-into-winter decorating!








We created the unique, industrial pendant light above--a modern

crystal chandelier inside creates a stunning juxtaposition

of rustic/industrial and elegance!!!








How many times have you seen a SIX FOOT TALL

French drying rack?!  This would make an

incredible *Christmas tree* or shop

display piece, no??!!!!!


* * *


Christmas holiday goodies, including lots of

silver trays for your holiday 

entertaining, will

arrive soon!
