~Greetings. The snow and the wind doth blow on this Tuesday morning in Vermont. We had a fresh new layer of snow overnight and now it is softly falling & is swirling about, slamming into the windows on a strong, bitter blustery wind! I shall be stitching the day away by a cozy fire. Wishing you a joy filled day.~

~An Exciting Announcement ~

Good morning and Joyous April to you! As I'm sitting here enjoying my first cup of coffee and the sun is just starting to rise....crackles (a small black bird we have here in VT) are trying to build a nest in a basket I have hanging on the front porch and the wee chipmunk who lives in the rock wall of my garden is scurrying about collecting sunflower seeds! Oh how I love the early morning!

Tis also a wonderful time for making announcements:)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~I AM VERY, VERY PROUD TO ANNOUNCE~

~Early Work Mercantile~

A new online monthly selling site for artists who create
~Early style folk art creations reminiscent of the 18th & 19th century~

Our Grand Opening will take place on
~ May 1st~

I'm am thrilled to say we have 27 fantastic artists
signed up to participate so far!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We still have openings so if you are an artist who creates early style folk art and would like participate, send me an email at vermontharvest@earthlink.net. Please be sure to include three photo's of your work and a link to your site if you have one. :) This is a juried site and I am also limiting the number of artists in each category.
