Spring, a Distant Memory
Ok, so I jumped the gun on spring. What can I say? It’s Maine! We all know spring is never assured until May, at least.
Mainers are a hardy bunch. Even those from “away” who have lived here for many years and can’t rightly call themselves true Mainers must be brave souls. A good number of Freeport merchants are in this category, having braved the nasty weather to participate in Freeport’s “Spring” Fashion Show at the Hilton. A few merchants had the opportunity to set up displays around the perimeter of the catwalk, thus having perfect views of the fashions as they paraded the runway. It was very impressive, seeing the variety of clothing and accessories available in this little town. Although the turn-out was not as large as expected, everyone there successfully ignored the raging wind and snow outside for a little promise of spring inside.

Thanks for your nice comments Jennifer.
We represent the work of close to 100 artisans from around the US and Canada. We spend a lot of time sorting through all the imitations to find real handmade jewelry! As you probably know it gets harder and harder every year.
Your copper work is very beautiful. Do you have a catalog or price sheet? Where are you located?

Your jewelry is beautiful also. All copper? Strong southwestern influences. Is that where you are?
