SHEEP COOKIE PRESS

Make a cookie a conversation piece - This sheep cookie press makes a unique housewarming gift or addition to a sheep theme gift basket. The memories we treasure the most are those we have of our family and friends - of baking cookies together on special occasions and holidays. These adorable terra cotta cookie stamps are handcrafted on a family farm in Oregon, following the Scandinavian and Pennsylvania Dutch tradition of decorating cookies with designs from carved stamps. Stamps are handmade from natural red clay and glazed with vibrant colors. $7.25 each

TERRA COTTA SOFTIE

This sheep keeps brown sugar soft and moist - also marshmallows, coconut, dried fruits, candies, cakes, and cookies! This is our pet lamb! This terra cotta disc is better than a slice of apple for keeping brown sugar and many other foods soft and moist. It will even re-soften hardened brown sugar. Simply soak the disc in water, then blot off excess moisture. Place in an airtight container with brown sugar or other food to keep it moist for weeks. If food begins to dry out and harden, simply re-moisten the disc and repeat the process. Packaged in a cellophane bag. Another unique sheep gift idea. Product size: 2" diameter. $5.25 each

SHEEP THEME JEWELRY

The Shepherd's Time Piece

The Celtic Sundial & Aquitaine Sundial. Cast in fine pewter, these sundials are a stunning recreation of the sundials used by shepherds in the mountains of France as they tended their animals hundreds of years ago. Not only elegant as a pendant, but a beautiful reminder of a slower time period. Simply turn the center of the ring until the small hole aligns with the initial of the current month, then suspend the dial so the hole faces the sun and a ray of sunlight will appear on the hour. Aquitaine sundial is 1 1/2" dia., the Celtic Sundial is 1" in diameter. (These dials are not intended to be as accurate as modern day timepieces, as with all sundials, the accuracy will vary depending on the time of year and your location.) You must also remember to add one hour for Daylight Savings Time. Buy one for yourself and one for a friend, ensuring that your "clocks" are synchronized! Comes with a description of how to adjust for best accuracy.

Aquitaine Sundial $30.00

Celtic Cross Sundial (Pictured Above) $30.00

SHEEP EARRINGS

They are cast in 100% fine, jeweler's pewter and contain no lead. The pewter has a 2% sterling content to add hardness and shine. Each sheep is slightly over 1/2 wide. They look a bit like Southdowns or chunky little Dorsets.   Romney Breeders like these little fluffs too! $12.00 set.(gift packaged at no extra charge)

SHEPHERD'S BROOCH PIN

This brooch is excellent for scarves and shawls and works on almost any garment. It is a traditional Celtic style brooch designed and cast in the USA. Cast in fine, lead free, jeweler's pewter, it is antiqued by hand as shown in the picture. This is a wonderful, small, penannular brooch that actually works like the originals dug up in Ireland, Scotland and Wales. It is 1 3/4 inches across and finely detailed. To wear this brooch, the fabric is drawn through the center opening and then the pin part is rotated thus trapping the fabric so the pin cannot release while being worn . The Vikings also used this type of brooch to fasten their capes and cloaks about their shoulders. Many have been found in Norse graves. It is perfect to pin a heavy shawl or cape and great for renaissance fair reenactments. The tongue pin part will slip through coarse or fine weave without leaving a big hole as some brooches of this kind do. Due to its size and weight this design works best on a light or medium weight fabric. $22.00 each (gift packaged at no extra charge)
