WELCOME, FAIR SPRING SEASON!

A Warm Welcome to Our Feathered Friends!

Here is a photo our shop would like to share with you.  This little guy was "out on a limb" on Wednesday, March 2, 2016. It had snowed at our Wisconsin location the day before, a total of about 4.5 inches.  Here's to you, Robin!  Happy Spring, everyone; and cheer up, cheer up, cheer up!

This month we're welcoming the season around the shop. We will be stocking more of the nostalgic items that will be needing a good home.  Please don't hesitate to check us out at www.etsy.com/shop/OakCreekCrafts

However, even though it is beginning to look a lot like spring, here in Wisconsin it is always Packer season.  When we're not watching the game, we're still thinking about the Pack.  Yes, I am a dyed-in-the-wool cheese fan!  And I live behind the cheddar curtain (to quote a cousin of mine who now lives near the Chicagoland area).

 

Here at the shop, we've created a special "golden" snowman, wearing his Packer identity and carrying his sign to let everyone know where his loyalty is.  We decided to give him the name, "Larry", who enjoys Lambeau field all year long!  Check him out at the shop and be sure to let all your Packer fan friends know about him.  He should be posted in the shop within the next week or so.

 

Before long, we will be at the height of Packer season. Again, on any given Sunday the Pack plays, our streets in a lot of Wisconsin neighborhoods take on the eerie appearance of a ghost town.  I am creating these cute "Larrys" for a fall craft fair already, because in only a couple months, it will be gardening season, lawn cutting season, trimming season, and sun time season!

I know it's spring.  I know that summer's coming.  But, here in the Frozen Tundra of Wisconsin, we've always got those Packers in the back of our minds.

Well, bye for now, and keep an eye out for those robins!  Capture one if you can via camera and let us know where and when you saw them!
