We are so excited to be hosting Mario Taré, the first on-staff Christmas Ornament Designer to join the Christopher Radko company, in the store from noon to 3 PM tomorrow, November 14th. A native of Chile and a life-long artist, Mario helped to revitalize the Radko line and, in 2001, collaborated in bringing back the vintage 1940s-themed Shiny-Brite™ collection.
If you love these colorful, nostalgic ornaments ~ such careful attention is given to the details on each piece ~ you’ll want to stop in and get the designer’s autograph on your favorite ornament.

I am reluctant to tell you that you missed our Ne’Qwa signing this year! Trieste was with us on October 17th. I ended up with three new ornaments… I’m so sorry – I hope you’ll be able to make it next year, or visit their site to learn about other signing opportunities. Next year, watch our calendar starting in about July to see when she’ll be here again.

Am very interested to know if you will have any signings for the Ne Qwa Ornaments. They are such a great collection. Purchased two there last year and they were such a hit they are worth driving the distance for more (350 miles). Thanks
