We invite the public to stop in and place a bid on beautiful handcrafted wreaths with half of the proceeds going to Project Help and half to the Carnegie Library. A few members of the Angola Regional Artist Guild: Cindy McCormick, Judy Houk, Sandy Kabes and Karen Sigl showcase just one of their wreaths they have prepared.

October is National Dollhouse and Miniatures Month

Biography:
"Deana Tritch, married and mother of three young adults. My husband bought my first dollhouse kit when I was pregnant for our first child in 1988. I made a new one with each pregnancy and then took a 10 year break to focus on being "Mom." My husband bought me a new kit for Christmas in 2003 and I was off. I now have 22 dollhouses and 21 room boxes/scenes. I've worked on dollhouses for friends' young children and I started an online shop to keep the house from getting completely overwhelmed with minis. I love this hobby because I can use skills I've learned in other crafts to build, furnish and accessorize my mini homes." Stop in and see 22 miniature dollhouses and room scenes she has made. They are very cool!
