Expressions Gallery and Gift Shop – green with envy

Expressions Gallery and Gift ShopSherry Blatner

Two big dates to be aware of in March; the 17th is St. Patrick’s Day and the 20th is the first day of spring!

For the leprechauns among you, troll through the Gallery and spot items in green. Or for those first noticing that it’s felt like spring for the last eight weeks, browse for something colorful to officially welcome the new season.

With tax season also approaching, the PC artisans are price sensitive to your needs, or maybe not. We have earrings starting at $2 and bracelets going up to $350; lots to choose from in the Creative Arts Center.

Create your very own Art Walk in the Center. Enjoy the many paintings displayed on the walls, in showcase windows and in the Gallery. Mixed media, alcohol ink, photography, color pencil, oil and acrylic are all available. See if you can find the cute cowgirl, a wonderful addition to your western home.

Ever feel that you’re barking up the wrong tree? Not if you’re a wood carver specializing in the use of cottonwood bark. Check out their showcase windows for an astonishing display of detailed carvings, both realistic and fanciful.

Please, take the time to enjoy the stunning glassware on display by the glass workers of PC. An always changing array of items is available for your enjoyment. If you have a green thumb, choose from a beautiful selection of plant sticks. The work of these creative folks includes useful and decorative items; items for your home, a friend’s home or personal adornment. It’s always nice to add shimmer to your life.

Ladies, don’t forget you can dress for any function with a shopping spree right here in the Creek. Beautiful one-of-a-kind scarves are available in multitudes of color and pattern. Shawls and wraps in many fun fibers are a great choice for those cool air-conditioned venues. Fabric artisans provide an exciting array of purses and totes to finish your look. And, if you’re always misplacing glasses, try a colorful beaded eyeglass chain.

Wait until your friends see you in your new custom finery; won’t they be green with envy? If so, you know where to direct them!
