			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week, MountainMade celebrated the upcoming, weekend wedding of one of its employees.  As we considered the appropriate staff gift to purchase, we realized that there are still several opportunities for summer weddings before the leaves begin to turn.  For these occasions, we’ve selected a few gifts you might want to consider.</p>
<p><strong>Ron Hinkle</strong>’s hand-blown glassware is a favorite of wedding couples.  These ice screamers, which come in a variety of colors, will serve many sweet treats.  </p>
<p>The bride and groom might enjoy <strong>Jeff Fetty’</strong>s calla lily candlesticks.  These candlesticks are his original design and are made from iron, finished in natural black and range in height from 18 to 20 inches.  Sold in sets of three, these candlesticks make an elegant display for the couple&#8217;s mantle or table.  Add a MountainMade taper candle. </p>
<p>MountainMade recently received an order from our potter, <strong>Lambro</strong>s.  He creates functional pottery pieces in a variety of popular colors.  His coffee mugs, soup cups, casseroles, bowls, etc., are certain to be enjoyed for years to come.  </p>
<p>But if it’s <strong>Blenko</strong> you want to give, MountainMade will have a new selection by Friday.  Check the website or give us a call.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spring is just around the corner. (Well maybe!  We currently have 4  feet of snow and are expecting up to 24 more inches).  The coming of  Spring is a time for new beginnings, romance, and youthful love. What a  wonderful time of the year to get married!</p>

<p><span id="more-373"></span>That&#8217;s what  lots of people seem to think. In fact, it&#8217;s such a wonderful time to get  married, that you may at this very moment, be bombarded with wedding  announcements.   If you are looking for the perfect springtime wedding  gift, look no further than MountainMade.  MountainMade makes your  shopping a little easier this season.</p>
<p>Since I am privy to quite a bit of insider knowledge (I am in charge  of our entire inventory after all), I thought I might help you out with  some wedding gift ideas. Here are my top 5 favorite suggestions for your  bride and groom:</p>
<p>1. Set of <a title="Wine Glasses by Ron Hinkle " href="../../catalogsearch/result/?q=ron+hinkle+wine+glass&amp;x=0&amp;y=0" target="_blank">Ron  Hinkle Wine Glasses</a>.  This a a perfect his and  hers wedding gift.   These would be great paired with a lovely bottle  of wine.  These wine  glasses are very unique because they have a hollow  stem.  Ron Hinkle is  one of the few artists who has the artistic skill  to create stemware in  this manner.</p>

<p>2. <a title="Blenko Glass Water  Bottles" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=blenko+water+bottle&amp;x=0&amp;y=0" target="_blank"> Blenko Water Bottles</a>.  Not only are these  beautiful functional additions for the home, you are also giving a piece  of American history.  These <a title="Blenko Glass at MountainMade" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=blenko&amp;x=0&amp;y=0" target="_blank">Blenko Glass</a> water bottles have been produced since  the 1930s.  They make a great gift and are collectible pieces of art  that can be passed on from generation to generation.</p>

<p>3. <a title="Cuttingboards by Jim &amp; Brenda Good" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=cutting+board&amp;x=0&amp;y=0" target="_blank">Jim &amp; Brenda Good Cutting Boards</a> &amp; <a title="Marvin Wotring Paring Knife" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/paring-knife" target="_blank">Marvin  Wotring Paring Knife</a>.  This set makes a wonderful addition to any  kitchen. I personally use my Jim and Brenda Good cutting board and the  paring knife by Marvin Wotring daily.  With proper use and care this is a  gift that will stand the test of time.</p>

<p>4. <a title="Chris Cooper Wooden  Salad Bowl" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/13-5-cherry-bowl-christoper" target="_blank">Chris Cooper Wooden Salad Bowl</a> &amp; <a title="Allegheny Treenware Cherry Salad Tongs" href="http://www.mountainmade.com/cherry-salad-tongs" target="_blank">Allegheny Treenware Salad Tongs</a>.  Another beautiful  set makes the perfect addition for the newly weds&#8217; kitchen.  These are  both made from beautiful cherry wood and the quality is exceptional. I  think the two pieces compliment each other perfectly.</p>
