Coast and Country Blog

Like many of you, the past two years have been challenging for us. We've been working to update our website and prepare for the 2022 Holiday Season. We're having colder temperatures of late, with snow flurries last Friday and windy conditions this past week.

We wish each of you a Happy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. If you are traveling, have a safe trip!

I decided to re-post my original Thanksgiving Blog post from 2013--the first year we were on the web with Lee Buchanan Jewelry. Our dinner menu will be about the same and memories of prior Thanksgivings don't change. Enjoy!

Starting a new website in the Fall can be a challenge. Not only is there an ongoing amount of work to do, but the Holiday Season is steadily marching toward you. Having a new design is great, and then comes the task of getting it into the website and checking what seems like the preverbal 100 and 1 things to be sure all the details are just right.  I had our new Christmas Tree Skirt and Stocking on the site, but then I envisioned the Tree Skirt and the Stocking in the living room, and two pillows with the designs...

Fall is in the air! And while we're not quite ready for snow just yet, we did have an early snowfall several years ago, near the end of October. The First Snow Clock, shown here, is a reproduction of a watercolor that Lee painted many years ago of a harvested corn field in eastern Pennsylvania. The First Snow image is currently available in three clock styles and two mug sizes.
