Just arrived.    Sailor Valentine Kits.   The kits come with shells, wood frame with cover, and good instructions.

This is the one I made while watching the opening ceremony of the the Olympics.   

Of course I stopped when The Queen met up with James Bond.  I loved every second of it.   We are big fans of Queen Elizabeth.  We have an English area of the store, that is well stocked with everything English.  (Scroll down to our Diamond Jubilee Post)

We are all about The Sea this Summer.

We have Antique Shell Art, Sea Creatures, Fish, Shells, Mermaid Houses, Handmade Mermaids, Vintage Aquarium Mermaids, and all sorts of Gifts from the Sea.

We have a new book, “The Camping Trip that Changed America”.   John Muir invited Teddy Roosevelt to go camping in Yosemite.  Teddy came to California, excused the press and his staff, and rode off into the mountains with John Muir.  They camped in Yosemite, John Muir talked with Teddy Roosevelt about preserving the land for everyone.  Teddy went back to Washington and started the National Park System.  John Muir and Teddy Roosevelt never met again but they corresponded the rest of their lives.   Our new window is the celebrate this event.

This is really not an Downton Abbey Bear, but I think it ought to be.   It is a New Steiff Bear and it is wonderful.  It just arrived and we have 2 available.  If you would like one give us a call. 415 456 1333

We are celebrating the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and we are Honoring Mothers Everywhere.

That is our bear Clarence having tea with The Queen.

The perfect Mother’s Day Present:  A tea mug, made in England,”First Class Mum”.

We have added a sash, antique pin and crown and turned the Steiff “Diamond Teddy Bear” into the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Bear.

Our popular craft bags, to decorate suitcases, make a journal, cards or decoupage.   Bags are filled with stickers, luggage labels, postcards, stamps and more.

The following are journals we have made with stickers, stamps, postcards, luggage labels. These are fun to make and

are very easy.   Blank journal books are $8.00 and work perfectly.

We honor those lost at sea 100 years ago today.  It is important that we honor their memory and keep their

stories alive.  We have Books, Titanic Tea, Cards and the Limited Edition Steiff  “Centenary Titanic Ted”.

The real stories are better than the best fiction.
