Christmas is here...Meet Snap from JingleNog



The Christmas season is upon us with it's magic gradually spreading throughout Blackstone's daily.  Melodic Christmas melodies fill the air.  Displays are being transformed into winter wonderlands of miniature holiday scenes complete with German pewter figurines and holiday mice (Wee Forest Folk figures), and lest we forget, the famous eleven dot angels from Wendt & Kuhn.

The ceiling - once famous many years back for its array of ornaments glinting from end to end - is now transformed for the second year into a winter wonderland of twinkling lights and delights.  New to our ornament collection this year are JingleNog's ornaments, which are all hand made with mouth blown European glass. Produced in Italy and Poland, the line is designed by JingleNog's owner and creator Melissa Byrne.

Meet one of Melissa's ornaments now available at Blackstone's...   

Snap
Quite the dancer, we are not really sure where he got the talent from. Snap is always ready for a good time and a little nog. Rumor has it that Snap once danced with Ginger, Posh and Spice. Oh those Girls!
Who knows what would have happened if he had devoted himself to kicking a soccer ball instead of kicking it up on the red ballroom carpet. We will never know. Or will we?
