Happy New Year!

 

 And I truly hope that it is for each of you and your families. It seems like many of us were happy to say good-bye to 2015 for various reasons.

 We, here at the shop plan to have a wonderful 2016 with some new ideas and some continued favorites.

 We appreciate each of you and look forward to seeing you.
