Play with Clay- Robin Nidelcheff’s Gorgeous Pottery



It was a pleasure to have met Robin Nidelcheff of Play with Clay
at Jim Thorpe's Fall Foliage Festival this year!
Robin presses real leaves into her clay creations to achieve
spectacular, woodsy results that put you right in touch with nature!








These striking blue and aqua pieces have a seashore vibe.

Warm, Cozy Mittens- Upcycled by Second Season



During our recent day at the Fall Foliage Festival in Jim Thorpe, PA,
I met Susan Wise and her fabulous upcycled mittens!
Her business, Second Season, is all about giving new purpose to old sweaters.

Most of us know the song, "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music, right?
Well, it came right to mind when I saw all of these "...warm woolen mittens!"

Each pair is meticulously crafted from a gently-used sweater, then lined with fleece.
Just perfect to keep your hands toasty during cold winters!

Susan can also create "Memory Mittens" from a sweater you may have
that once belonged to a loved one. Such a nice keepsake to use and treasure!

A Fabulous Fall Foliage Festival in Jim Thorpe, PA



Aaaah, the endearing town of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania!
We visited in October this year for their annual Fall Foliage Festival.
What a treat! This cozy town is tucked between the mountains,
which provide a picturesque backdrop for captivating hometown architecture.










We spotted entries for the Scarecrow Competition throughout the town!





Continuous live music on 4 different stages, like here at the gazebo. 



Lots of shopping with canopied handcrafted artists.



Check out this beautifully crafted pottery!
I did a feature post entitled
"Play with Clay- Robin Nidelcheff's Gorgeous Pottery."



Lovin' these upcycled mittens by Second Season!





You can take a ride on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway!
