Candyman Hat

NUTTY REMAKES!


Speaking of wearing things fabulously: One day while browsing at the ReStore I found an old lieutenant's cap for $1.00. I felt overwhelmed with inspiration to outfit Steph's brilliant noggin with a special cap. I retrofitted it with $.10 trim and some wonderful quilted candy cane stripped material from the free bin. A few hours later... Wallah!! A candyman hat just like that!

You've got to be DEAD RED



All of us are required to color coordinate around here.

"I wouldn't be seen green
Ooo! Oo! Oo! Ah! Ah!
I wouldn't be caught dead
And if I'm caught at all
Then catch me in dead, red
Ooo!
You've got to be dead red
You've got to be real hot
So throw away those green gems
And wear rubies on your yacht

You've got to be dead red
You've got to have flash and flair
And if you're not seen red
Then you shouldn't be seen nowhere
Ah!" (Lyrics from The Wiz)

Nutty is THE WIZ! Join us as we follow her lead and WEAR RED as fabulously as she.

EGGS!


In early Spring, when the days are beginning to get longer and warmer, we move into the egg moon. Eggs, like seeds, are symbolic of hope and of a future that is fertile with life. They are an ancient icon of Spring, rebirth and renewal. Eggs symbolize wholeness, completeness and often serve as metaphors for the universe.

Right now the special feature of our beautiful antique chocolate case is EGGS! Check dat drizzle fo' shizzle (nice work Steph)!

Send for one, stop in, or simply imagine eggs as miraculous incubators providing shelter for powerful new growth.
