New from the creative mind behind our "Ornamentation" store within a store! These lovely, whimsical fairy ornaments are destined to stay up all year - you won't want to put them away! Nonetheless, they can also decorate a holiday tree with a unique combination of hand-crafted, truly fantastic work. Laurel Paul is the experienced artist behind these wonderful pieces. She is a well-known artist in her own right, particularly in the areas of oil painting and stained glass (you can see more on her web site at: http://laurel.herbpaul.com). Her work is held in collections all across the country - and yes, she is Carolyn's Mom! Here you will find her talent turned to a special, limited edition series of handmade, one-of-a-kind ornaments. We feel so lucky to have her work join ours!

These ornaments have a paper mache base for durability (no broken bulbs here!), and are then covered with a variety of hand-cut and glued embellishments and images through a painstaking process that is truly individual to each ornament. Preview all of the selections, and you will be amazed at the detail that goes into each one - and thankfully with this new collection, they don't need to sit in a box 9 months of the year!
