My wife, Camille, is an amazing artist. Every once in a while, she steps away from her easel & gets inspired to make a soft sculpture. Vera, pictured here, may be my all time favorite. She’s perfect, right down to the corkscrew hair on here paper mache chin. One-of-a-kind. For sale in the shop now. Shipping available. Call 603-495-1776

The Granny Vase got its name from one of our good customers who happened to be in the shop the day my father made the first one many years ago. When my father asked for a potential name, she thought a moment, and then said, “call it the Granny Vase. It will be great for those occasions when the grandchildren run up with a hand full of flowers and say, ‘I picked them all for you granny’.” The name stuck and the vase has been a very popular gift item ever since. Made these today💐
