Girl's Night Out Was a Blast!!

We all had fun at our second annual Girl's Night Out here at Artisans Gallery in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

There was a lot of excitement when we announced the winner's of our hourly drawings. We gave away a unique Peggy Karr Glass Transylvania Bowl and a cute little handmade purse from Maruca called Sparrow. One lucky winner also received a warm, fuzzy scarf from Zazou and our last hourly prize was a wine gift basket!! (Given to the nice woman pictured above.) Mariposa gave us a delightfully, unique Halloween tray with bats for handles that one lucky lady won!!

Probably the most fun of all was getting to see everyone test out the gorgeous witch hats and decide which one best fit their witch outfit!! We enjoyed sampling some of the new foods that Artisans is now carrying. The favorite snack was probably the Chocolately Cherry Amaretto Cheesecake Fondue. It was wickedly good!

Since Earth Day in April, Artisans Gallery has started a program to save on plastic bags and help the community at the same time. Although our shopping bags are made of recycled plastic and paper(Artisans Gallery has been using only recycled bags since opening 15 years ago), we thought we'd see if we could make a difference. Every time you take your purchase home without a bag, we donate 5 cents to Gaithersburg Help. So far we've been able to donate about $100. That's a lot of nickels!!
