We are highlighting some awesome gift ideas here at Enchanted from now until Christmas. These are all items that would make wonderful additions to your Christmas list, and they are all under $30!


Gorgeous needle gauge pendants ($16)


Solmate mismatched socks come in cotton or wool, we carry baby sizes all the way up to adult. These are a personal favorite around here! ($17 cotton, $22 wool)


Unique and beautiful knitting needle jewelry
by Australian artist Liana Kabel. ($28.95)



Knit Lights are too cool! Just the perfect thing for those dimly lit rooms,
or when you need to get just a few more stitches in before bed :) ($10)



Adorable knitted felting kits from Crafty Alien.
These kits are all inclusive, and very simple! ($12)

These are on sale until Christmas 40% off! ($26.00)

This Hand Dye Kit has been designed using Louet's Gems Merino Superwash wool yarn (enough for a beautiful hand-dyed pair of socks) and 3 - 10gm containers of acid dyes by Gaywool. This is a simple, safe, in your kitchen method of creating your own unique hand dyed yarn. The kit includes three 50gr skeins of fingering weight merino, three 10gr cans of dye, 1 squeeze bottle and a sample bottle of Meadows Wool Wash soap.

What we've been up to

Well, here's a small update. Uncle Paul has now departed and we are left doing some minor finishing work. Of course, without him it's not getting done nearly as fast as we would like :) Oh, well! This week we got our sign put up outside the entrance to the shop.

The fairy door actually was put in before Uncle Paul left,
but we just never got around to taking a pic before now.


As you can see through the door, our holiday decorations are up and we are in full swing for the season! I am starting some Christmas projects myself, already feeling behind of course! :) Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Latest news

We have all but finished our main room in the addition. While we do have some touch up and finishing work to do on the classroom, we are definitely open for business now and have our fireplace put in and everything! :) Here are a few pics! Our trunk show is underway and we are still getting submissions. Come bring your items by so we can display them!

Look how close we are!!

Please forgive our long absence here at the blog. We have been working our fingers to the bone every day and falling into bed every night. We would never have been able to do all this without the unfailing devotion and assistance from some very awesome people. Sending a shout out to Peggy, Gayla, Steve, Mary, Judy, Brady, William and Cheryl. You guys have been such a help, we are so lucky to have you all in our lives!

So, here's an update in pictures. We almost have everything done by now except the ceiling fans put in the new section. Now to touch up the old section, finish out the classroom/dyeing studio and we're done! It's really starting to take shape, and it's amazing how much more room we have. We walk into the old section and wonder how we ever fit all of that in there! Thanks again to everyone for your patience and understanding with us on this whole thing. It's been so much work, but I think it is going to be worth it. We can't wait for you to see the new Enchanted!

Gayla's brother Steve (our hero) sanding the floor,
while we assist in the difficult part of the job...;)

And I just thought this would make a pretty picture, lol.


Things are in a bit of disarray


Putting together miles upon miles of shelving...whew!



Transferring yarn from the old section to the new


Look at all that yarn!


Our first new customer, William's dog Zeke :)


Uncle Paul, hard at work


Things are starting to look a bit cleaner


Resting after a very long day. This was at 10:30 last night!

Apologies

Things are moving right along here! We have gotten all the painting done today except for the flooring. We just want to make sure that it's clear that although we are technically open, we need to ask for patience and understanding from our customers who wish to stop by. We are more than happy to help you locate anything you are looking for, and hope to have the shelves up and in place for the yarn by Thursday. Unfortunately, we disappointed some people today by not having this clearly stated sooner so we want to make sure that everyone understands for the rest of this week at least. Things are in a bit of disarray right now and we are working as fast as we can to get everything in place. Thanks so much for understanding! Please accept our apologies Ashley and her mother...we hope you will be able to make it out again sometime soon.

Visible progress and halloween pumpkins

Aubrey and her very kind and patient friend, William, helped the kids carve their very first jack o'lanterns ever!





Aren't they so awesome? I have never seen any as good as these.
Thank you a thousand times you two! The kids were so proud of themselves and so were we!






We are now officially wide open to the new space. I am so excited. Can you believe it?

We thought we could do it, we really did......but....

We thought we would be able to stay open and do our construction work at the same time.....but....well, here is a glimpse inside of the shop today.....

After we stepped back and looked at what we had to do, we took a vote and it was unanimous. We are going to concentrate our efforts on getting this shop open for you by next Tuesday and that will give us all week to attend to everything else.
Please forgive our overextending ourselves.
We will see you at 11:00 on November 4th, when we re-open and start our really cool trunk show. This gives you another week to finish all those awesome projects!!

The perfect touch for a day like today!!



Here is a picture of our new fireplace and mantel. It is a rainy, dark day and the thought of being able to cuddle up close to that soon, is so cool!

Namaste goodness!

We are so excited about the newest goodies from Namaste! If you haven't heard about this yet, listen up! They have a new purse that will be available in November called the Zuma. Here are some pics of that. Along with interior pockets, there is an expanding section on the front that opens to store all the important items that need to be easily accessible. This comes in 7 different colors and our order is in for several of them. If you would like to get one in a specific color, just call and we will make sure it's on our order :) The cost for this bag is $64.95. Click here for more information as well as the color choices that are available.




Now, on to more fun stuff!


BUDDY cases are the essential accessory for your little stuff- bring your BUDDY along to tote your personal, crafting, or travel notions so you'll never be without. The BUDDY case features hidden magnetized interior walls to keep your metal items in place, a removable interior divider, and is made of the lush animal-friendly faux leather that you've come to expect. Contrast stitching, solid construction, and snap button closure- everybody needs a BUDDY!
These will be available at Enchanted the first week of December and would make an awesome Christmas gift for that special person in your life!
The cases are $14.95



A divinely simple way to keep your stuff in its right place- the Oh Snap! pouches come in a set of 3 to bring the Zen back to your life (and your handbag).
