I'm having a Labor Day sale in my Etsy shop! Now thru 9/8/09, Buy One, get additional purchases for 25% off. Etsy doesn't have a handy sale option, so you have to either purchase the items and I can refund the difference via Paypal, or I can do a special listing.

I've added some new items to prep for the sale.

Here Be Dragons

I just love dragons!  I have quite a collection - pewter figurines, stuffed dragons and my favorite, a ceramic dragon flute.  

I also have an extensive collection of novels dealing with dragons.  I'm quite intrigued by the different ways authors refresh this iconic character.  One of my all time favorites is "Tea with the Black Dragon" by R.A. McAvoy.  My latest read is a young adult novel "The Last Dragon" by Silvana De Mari.  My son read it for his 7th grade english class so I read it as well.  There's an interesting political theme that provided me an opportunity open a discussion with him.  He hasn't developed a good grasp on recognizing themes, he's still at the stage where he just enjoys the story.  

Enjoy these great reads for summer and check out my dragon choker/necklace and earrings.
