Joy to the World Ino Schaller Exclusive

It’s an Ino Schaller exclusive for The Christmas Tree in Highlands, NC. Trisha and Bob Kieltyka, owners of the year-round holiday shop, are enthusiastic about the special design for this glass ornament exclusive.

Wasserfall Santa (German “for waterfall”) is a new mold from Joy to the World’s new collection of officially licensed Ino Schaller inspired ornament designs. The ornament was styled to evoke memories of Highlands, known for its mountains, trees, waterfalls and Scottish-inspired name. Santa’s sandy glitter beard, beaded pine tree and furry trim as trademark Schaller papier-mache features. Santa’s bright red coat with decorated with snowflakes that fall gently upon the pine-covered mountains and waterfall for which Highlands is so well known.

New from Bethany Lowe Designs

Why didn’t I think of this?! So simple but oh, so cute! These new vintage-style wax candles from Bethany Lowe Designs host a self-contained candle that’s battery-operated. I predict that you will see these retro-style pumpkins all over in 2008.

The larger Vintage Wax Pumpkin measures 4.5 x 4.5″ and will retail for approximately $15.50. The smaller version measures 3 x 3″ and will sell for approximately $7.50. Won’t they be a fun addition to your Halloween table?

Thanks, Bethany for an ingenious idea!
