To all our customers, we wish a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, and a Happy New Year. However you celebrate the Holidays, have joy, and peace.
Our last dates to do silhouettes are around the corner--Dec 19 here at our home--you need an appointment to get that last minute gift for grandparents--our home phone is 703-960-0095. We have been sitting at the new Museum Shop for Gadsby's Tavern, down at the Waterfront, and we will be there one more time, Dec. 26, 1-4. Call us at the above number to make an appt. there. We can still do occasional appointments at our home over the next few weeks, but please do call to make sure we are home. We leave for a winter stay in Arizona early in January. We will post our Spring schedule while there.
Again, Happy Holidays! Anne and Francis Leslie
