From Above

From our studio we see that Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson are now snow-capped and glow pink in the fading sunlight at the end of the day.

And in the morning as we begin our day at work, we see our kilns glowing pink at the end of their night's firing cycle, and together if they could cry out, the white snow capped mountains, and our white bisque porcelain ornaments would quote James 1:17 "Every good and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights..."!

Snow transforms the landscape, crowns the horizon's peaks, and reflects the light in an array of beauty and colors often indescribable.

Our "From Above" Snowflake Angel series reminds us that our brief time together with friends and family during the holiday season vanishes as quickly as a snowflake melts in our hands. And while we have the memory of these special holidays, our hope is that this year's 2008 Snowflake Angel ornament will reflect the memories of those nearest your heart in an array of beauty that is indescribable.....and that you too would exclaim "every good and every perfect gift is from above".

Blessings,

Jay & Janice

Looking Over Her Shoulder

Looking over her shoulder from afar, you see our new line of Angels gazing toward heaven with outstretched arms in humble adoration crying "holy, holy, holy" in awe at the works of His hands. Each item beckons you to join the eternal chorus! The first in an annual series of angels celebrating and proclaiming the glory of God's creation is titled "Behold the Heavens".

Also, in a series of annual "snowflake" angels, we are introducing "From Above" which is intended to celebrate our brief time together as family during the Christmas holidays. This angel's message reminds us that as quickly as a snowflake melts, our time with our loved ones during the holidays is just as brief.

Finally, the third angel in our new introduction is "Peace". This line of annual angels expresses God's grace and love inspired by creations in the garden....in this case the "Peace" rose, which together with the cross invite each of us to have peace with God through his Son.

These angels will be available for shipping to retailers in August. And that's not all......we have many other New Designs that we think you will enjoy! We will be sending you more information on these in the coming weeks.
