We are approaching the holidays, and it’s time to start thinking about gifts for special people. Over the next few weeks, I will give you gift idea under $50.
The first idea is Paul Strauch’s handcrafted doorbells. Each doorbell is hand cast in solid bronze. Time and weather take a creative role as each doorbell develops its own rich patina. These doorbells are always in style and a wonderful gift for $39.
The next idea is a handcrafted, turn-wood wine stopper by local artist Curt Kemp from St. Paul. Choose from the traditional exposed cork or the concealed cork which actually covers the bottle slightly. Both are made from exotic woods, hand-turned, hand-finished, and one-of-a-kind for only $16.50.
Stop by and see the handcrafted doorbells and wine stoppers up close. You’ll be glad you did.
