LATEST NEWS
I have some new limited items available at Lone Prairie just in time for
Christmas. Check
out these new items, in all price ranges, and see if you can't find
something you like. As always, each order has a little something
"extra" thrown in as a surprise!

PRAIRIE SCHOOL AND LIBRARY
Two new blogs at Lone Prairie.
The survey from the last newsletter -- a survey on possibly offering
online classes at Lone Prairie -- proved useful as well as surprising. I
decided to add a brand new section to the web site which would contain
lots of art, craft and writing lessons, tips, ideas and free downloads. Be sure to
check out the Lone Prairie
School.
For you fellow avid readers out there, I made the decision to shift all of
my book reviews and book-related posts to the Lone
Prairie Library.
As always, I welcome your feedback and input on these blogs. Each post has
a comments section where you are encouraged to leave your thoughts. Let me
know what you think!

CHRISTMAS CARDS
Some of you may remember my
offer last year, my offer to send out my "Christmas letter"
to anyone who requested it. It was a letter with a slightly different tone
than the usual mailings that go out this time of year. This
year I've calmed down a bit and have even contemplated resurrecting my old
Christmas tradition of making my Christmas cards. Previously (at least for
three years), I went out of my way to out-do myself. One year I made over
fifty pop-up cards. Another year involved an elaborate vellum concoction.
The year before that was a golden linoleum print. I have no illusions this
year, and I also have nothing started. I'm still in the vague idea stage.
However, and here's the kicker: if I get my cards made, and you want one,
email me your address and I'll send you a
genuine-made-by-hand-original-art Lone Prairie Christmas card. I promise
I'll not abuse nor publish your address. I won't add you to any list. The
card won't cost a thing. Just send your address and if I get my act
together, I'll send one to you at no charge. Just my way of saying
"thanks" for visiting my site.
I will be announcing this on my blog later, but my newsletter subscribers
will get first crack at what will be a limited list. Get your name in
early. If the cards go out, you'll get one.

TAKE ADVANTAGE
This is the time of year some of you may be thinking of what gifts to make
for Christmas. I just want to remind you to take advantage of me! There
are a number of free project ideas just waiting to be downloaded, many of
which would make fun little gifts. A bit of a re-run to point this page
out, but there's no harm in reminding you of free stuff!

next time,
