Hope you have had a relaxing summer and are settling into routine. Although the days are getting shorter, the colours are getting brighter as we usher in autumn. For me, fall always feels like a "new year" (I guess it is because I have school aged children) and it is a time of reflection (and resolutions). With the store's 21st anniversary celebration also coming up; the fall even more so, marks a defined passage of time.
This newsletter is full of NEW products (and some new introductions from existing lines) as I travelled this summer in search of interesting, useful, giftable, and on trend products for YOU.
There is more to come on the next newsletter, or you may visit the NEW website (looong overdue), we will update the new arrivals section regularly.

Dammit Dolls
Stress Relief
This is another successful line that sells out constantly. A lot of our sales come from customers buying them for their entire work team or departments . Since the fabric and yarn are always very random, no two people will have the same work buddy to beat up on.
NEW to the line is the
referee doll that says:
When the ref makes a bad call and the opposing team gets the ball, here's a "Dammit Ref" Doll that you can't do without. Just grab it firmly by the legs and find a pace to slam it, And as you what the stuffing out, yell "Dammit Ref! Dammit!"

SID DICKENS
Freedom Collection
Symbolic of his belief for peace and unity in our world, our communities, and our lives
. This collection represents our common goal to achieve freedom and tranquility
The first shipment of this collection has JUST arrived; I personally think, this is his BEST release since Crafted Decor started carrying Sid Dickens in 1999. This collection is very 3 dimensional; the images do not capture their true beauty -
I'm sure you'll agree when you see them in person.

There are
huge
trends in jewelry this season. It's all about the layering (or multiples) - whether it be necklaces, bracelets, or rings. Lots of great jewlery is in stock to help you achieve the look.
Necklaces
The must-have jewelry accessory this winter is necklaces. Long necklaces are HUGE, whether they be beaded (very on trend) or simple and most of them with some sort of pendant (tassel, medallion, rock, etc); and can to be worn in many combinations of length and colour. To complete this look -
CHOKERS
(yes they are back)
whether lace or solid, are very on trend.
There are also open ended necklaces that you can wrap around your neck like a choker and then have two loose ends hanging down.
If its not layered, than it is a statement piece of jewelry that deserves a space all its own, and we have those too!
Meditation Rings
Based on prayer wheels these rings have an outer band which manually spins freely. This motion gives the wearer a special "soothing effect" which aids in releasing anxiety and worries. These spinners are also referred to as "prayer rings" or "meditation rings" and made in nickel free sterling silver. Designed by local artists in Brampton, and are made in India.
Earrings
A huge selection of various styles of earring are available.
The nice thing about wearing layers of
jewelry - it means you don't have to worry about matching earrings - as long as they simply coordinate.
