A few years ago, something caused the S in Tacoma Self Storage's neon sign to stop glowing in December. The owners have decided to make it a tradition and now this lighted sign that can be seen from the freeway coming into or out of town changes to Tacoma Elf Storage during December. Interesting as one would think this would be the busy season for elves, not a time to store them away but what do I know?
Here's a much better picture than mine and a humorous take on Tacoma Elf Storage. http://www.theviewfromrighthere.com/blog/?p=5642
You can also tell it's close to Christmas when glass fusers are busy making gorgeous glass snowflakes like these by Sandy Rose, a wonderful glass crafter.
Sandy took a fused snowflake class at Mandarin Stained Glass and came up with these fabulous color combinations that look wonderful on Lani Neil's designs!
