originally from Huron, SD. Ryan is a 20-year recently retired Marine Corps veteran. Emily is an honor graduate from UMUC with a Business Administration and Accounting degree with a specialty in Music Education, from three years of study at SDSU and additional musical study and concentration from age 7. Ryan has discovered the art of woodworking is his way to relax amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life. His medium is hard wood with beautiful grains and just the right amount of spalting. He uses wood he has recovered and milled from downed trees in Hurricane Irene, from felled wood in Japan, and is currently taking down and milling an old maple in South Dakota. He purchases exotic hardwoods for specialty projects and some of his pen work. Emily has studied music theory for fourteen years, piano and clarinet for eleven years, voice for ten, and oboe for two. She has performed with these various musical instruments for nineteen years in multiple areas of the country and world. She held the piano contract for a chapel as well as opened up her first piano studio in Iwakuni, Japan for three years and reopened her piano studio in Cape Carteret, NC for an additional three years. Most recently, she has spent the last two years playing clarinet with the Fallbrook Chamber Orchestra in Fallbrook, CA. Ryan and Emily recently moved to La Vista, NE with their three children to be back in the Midwest life near family and friends. They feel it's time to start this new business venture and incorporate what they love into a way to share their knowledge and talents with young and old and give back to their local community.

A wonderfully written pattern goes a long way. Yesterday this yarn was going to be a ribbed tank top. The pattern wasn’t super clear and I wasn’t in the mood to look at photos and try to decipher what the designer wanted so I switched to a new pattern and am loving it! Pattern: Tove by Amy Christoffers Yarn: Bamboo Pop purchased at Wooly Mammoth Yarn Shop

These bags are moving quickly! The one shaped like a purse in the first photo is SOLD OUT! I have one left of the circular needle holder and the zipper bag in the other photos. I still have two of each of the other bags left from the previous post! Come visit our shop and get yours before they're gone. I probably won't get more until there's another special with the wholesale site to help cover duties and shipping costs as these beautiful bags come all the way from Denmark!

We are ready for the Papillion Twilight Criterium bike race tomorrow. We expect that it’ll be hot and people viewing the race will need sustenance. We have some bottled waters and snacks for all ages that will be available until supplies run out. Please bring cash. When you’re really hungry or need to relax, stop downtown at one of the restaurants or bars for a meal and a drink or two! We will be open for shopping and know that some of the other downtown Papillion shops will be open as well. Come ❤️ in and enjoy some air conditioning on the hot summer day! Make sure you check and see how you can get downtown before you leave as some roads will be closed and some normally available parking will be unavailable. We do hope to see you!
