Happy Holidays from Expressions Gallery and Gift Shop!

Sherry Blatner

Another year of life experiences in the Creek. What better way to express your mood than with a spree in the Expressions Gallery!

The wood carvers club encouraged folks to learn a new craft just in time for the holidays with a Santa Carving Class. You should keep up with classes available in the Creative Arts Center by visiting and checking the class calendar located in the Expressions Gallery and Gift Shop. What a memorable treasure you could create for you or your family and friends. You might want to start a plan for 2024 right now and leave room on your calendar for classes and art clubs.

Your shopping experience in the Gallery begins with a bountiful display of one-of-a-kind handmade gift items—think big and small, everything from large paintings and quilts to small stuffed creatures. You could start a stuffed zoo for young family members and add to it on special dates throughout the year.

Bling is always a vibrant display in the Gallery. Now, we know you’ll head to the mall; while there look at the jewelry for sale and the prices, then rush back home and splurge in the Gallery. Did you watch the World Series? While I have no comment on the outcome, I did note the Diamondbacks were bedecked with the style of necklaces we always have for sale, pearls and shimmering beads!

While you are wined and dined by friends this month in their homes, house gifts are plentiful in the Gallery. You already know their colors so choose from glassware, ceramics, pottery, and fiber to enhance their tables. Don’t forget to tell them you found the gift at the Gallery!

As usual, personal gifts are available for all ages—everything from doll clothes, books and bookmarks, baby clothes, denim kids jackets, scarves, and small cases to hold your keepsakes.

We’re waiting to assist you this holiday season—see you soon!
