Scottish Lion wrought iron

Leslie Connell creates these jars with a nightlite inside. There is more to them than it looks. There are at least 3 lites in each one so as to give off a soft glow of light at night . Pictured here is a Quart size ,pint and half pint. Each is unique because of the shapes of beach glass that she has discovered after many a summer afternoon beach combing.

Her hair sweeping around her.$8,500.00 Next in relief is " Slumber" carved in Portland,Maine limestone.$525.00 We have other stone sculptures and carved candle stick holders here at the Scottish Lion and Friends.

Sorry this item has been SOLD! This week I wove Shaker style table runners. This one is woven with a cotto/linen yarn that gives it a crispness and flecks of tan in it that must be from the linen spun in the yarn. The Shakers were recognized for their simple lines in blue. They would hang this style fabric up on the walls around their beds from Shaker pegs. I use to do a craft show out at the Shaker Village in Pittsfield , MA every summer at the Hancock Shaker Village. Exhibitors would get a private tour and a Shaker meal put on by the foundation. It was a wonderful show and experience. The big old round barn was an inspiration to my husband when he built our new barn last year. If you are wondering about the show it is not happening any more . They replaced it with "Contemporary" artists that do not make crafts related to the Shakers.

SORRY THIS ITEM HAS BEEN SOLD! Daffodils are blooming now! This rug reminds me of spring flowers. I hand cut the material into strips before weaving them into this rag rug 24 x 40 it fits just right in any room. It can be gently machine washed and dried and it will give years of service. The ends are hemmed . colors are yellow, white and beige to gray . A Maine staple rag rugs were woven out of all sorts of worn out clothing to create a colorful home interior . The frugal house wife let nothing go wasted.
