Festive Whims and Fine Art

Festive Whimsy & Fine Art Show / Sale

Festive Whimsy & Fine Art Show / Sale to be held December 6th & 7th at Straw Town Store on Washington St., Pella, IA in conjunction with Pella Christmas Tour of Homes.

Marlys' Garden with Ruthann Van Vark has been accepted as vendors to the show.  We're so excited!

We will again be donating all our earned proceeds to "Building A Dream" to help build a new home for our friends the Sue Spece family.

The Building A Dream team has sent us darling snow people & large and small Christmas angels to sell.  We have gorgeous fabric wreaths for you, plus natural gourd wreaths, Christmas center pieces & décor in our papercrete planting dishes, Ruthann's Christmas collages, & Christmas pickles, & birdhouse planters filled with fun decorations.

Warning!  At our last sale the snow people went fast and the angels just flew off the shelves.  We only have 4 large garden angels left and a limited number of little garden angles.

This is a boutique style showing set up so items are intermingled with other items.  Hope to you can come support our fund raising.

Merry Christmas!
