The past two years, I've gotten my brother's wife a piece of Lil McKH jewelry. I love Lil's stuff, and my sister-in-law likes it, too. We've gotten jewelry for Chip's mom, stained glass crosses, and wooden spoons from some of my cousins.
I've been obsessed with McCartys Pottery Delta Bells and Mushrooms Chimes for a few years now, and I'd been dying to go to McCartys Pottery in Merigold to buy some of these handmade beauties. My friend Leah was up for a road trip to the Delta to visit McCartys and Peters Pottery, so we headed up there the weekend of December 5th.
We had lunch on Saturday at McCartys in their cute-as-a-button restaurant. The tables are set with McCartys Pottery and all the food was served in their pottery also.

We headed to McCartys then Peters after lunch. I loved McCartys gallery! It is tiny, but they display their pieces so beautifully. At McCartys I bought Mushroom Chimes for two of my sisters-in-law and a gorgeous bowl for Chip's mom. At Peters, I bought a sugar bowl and creamer and a tiny little kitten for myself.
On Saturday night, we stayed in the Pinetop shack at the Shack Up Inn. It was so much fun! The shack had central heat and air conditioning, but with its wood walls and floors and shabby furnishings, it still felt like an old shack.
Outside our shack... Pinetop Perkins.

Soo cool! Love the gifts and the shack!
I had a bridal shower at the McCarty restaurant and LOVED it.
Merry Christmas!
Just came across your blog -- and your mention of my jewelry -- I so appreciate! Have a wonderful 2010! (You sure started mine off in a terrific way -- and I thank you!)

very beautiful picture that I draw it
Pretty quaint! Never seen such a place available to stay in. You didn't use that fridege, did you?
No, I don't think we used the fridge, but it seemed to work just fine. The Shack Up Inn is definitely one of a kind!
