Big thanks to everyone who came out tonight for the Lillstreet Holiday Open House Party. Fun to meet a lot of new people, chat with old friends… and see some pots head off to their new homes! Thanks for appreciating handmade & supporting local artisans.

We all appreciate it

For the first day of December, this morning was pretty darn amazing! Warmer than it should be for this time of the year… sunny, warm and calm. A great kick-off for December!
