Our showroom is filling up with great new inventory for the upcoming Alaska State Fair. We commit 3 weeks to the fair in Palmer, Alaska and it does pay off. Always great to just sell and visit with folks. And now we have a really nice building to set up in. So much nicer than the tent! We will have a full inventory, at least in the beginning! Come on by Purple Trail next to the Chinese food place and Woolies clothing!

We are also getting ready for the holiday shows. I know, it’s so early to think about holidays! We have our usual plan for November: Wasilla, Fairbanks, and Kenai. And I’m sure we will be set up locally in Kenai/Soldotna area in December. We are on the road selling our wares and it doesn’t give us much time to produce the lovely goods.  

We know our customers are looking for quality goods made and sourced locally.  We are fortunate to know many talented vendors in the state who make a living selling locally produced wares. Quality goods that last a long time, everyone wants that!

A reminder that we have had to raise some of our prices. Shipping, of course, along with high quality goods to make our products. We have upgraded the sheepskin that goes into our slippers and boots, as well as the slipper linings.  We believe in a quality product, and it starts with quality materials. We realize that everyone’s budget is being squeezed with inflation and we try very hard to keep prices real.

Thank you to all the customers who came out to Clam Gulch to our showroom. It is an experience, to go along with the shopping and you can see the work rooms where it all happens. We do live in the middle of nowhere with no road sign for our hidden road. Not so hard to find! We are working on getting the new sign put up and cross our fingers that it doesn’t find a new home on someone’s wall!

   Happy Gathering!
   ... and that includes gifts!

Mukluks have been popular as well as vests. So if you want something special, shop with us early! I’m still catching up on springtime orders which will be done soon.
