Tulip is one of my “go to” stores in Rehoboth Beach.  Located at 29819 Coastal Highway (Rt. 1).  Tel. 302-226-2696.  Website?  http://www.tulipltd.com.  Tulip is completely decked out for the holidays.  It does not stop there, though, because Tulip opens year-round.  There are 2 floors and plenty of rooms to roam and find that perfect gift for the holidays.

The dark chocolate is a favorite, but the milk chocolate…you have to try it.  So smooth.  Then, the combination with nuts and sea salt renders a toffee that is totally addictive.

dscn7006

Taylor’s Toffee is made at 38288 London Avenue, Unit #8 in Selbyville, Delaware, 19975.  It is west of Fenwick Island, Delaware by a few miles.  It is a family operated business.  Tel. 302-436-7539

Taylor’s Toffee is also sold in area stores.  You may call them and they will direct you where to go.  But, today, Friday, December 2oth they will be at the Berlin Farmers’ Market on Harrison Avenue behind the Berlin Fire Company.  I believe they attend the market frequently.  The Berlin Farmers’ Market opens 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. year-round.

The chocolates come in gift boxes of 2 ounces, 6 ounces or 12 ounces.  They also offer gift bags of 4 ounces, 8 ounces, or 16 ounces.  They ship, as well.

Destination? Angelucci, Studios, Artists’ Gallery, Woodworking, Stained Glass, Milford, Delaware, Shopping, Southern Delaware!!

“Milford is a community with respect for its past and great promise for the future.”  It is undeniable the spirit of renewal in the town of Milford.  Trees, street art, Victorian lampposts are lining the streets…the beautiful Riverwalk.  The city is involved with the Delaware Main Street program, revitalizing the downtowns through historic preservation.  The town is lucky to have so many of its residents that are on board and full of enthusiasm as Milford becomes a destination in Southern Delaware.

One of such artists and mentors is Scott Angelucci.  His Studio & Artists’ Gallery is located in a building on the corner of Walnut Street and Park Avenue.  This building is also the home of the Mispillion Art League.  Scott Angelucci’s Fine Woodworking Studio is located at 7 Park Avenue, with the Stained Glass Studio and Artists’s Gallery at 4 Park Avenue.  Tel.302-422-4533  Website? http://www.angeluccifinewood-stainedglass.blogspot.com.

Years ago Scott Angelucci made for my husband a humidor.  This time I was picking up a custom compass box, also commissioned by my late husband.  Scott’s work is amazing.

Angelucci Studios & Artists’ Gallery serves as a gallery for local artists displaying their works of art, and it is also Gail Angelucci’s Stained Glass Studio.

dscn6012

Both, Gail and Scott are very welcoming and easy to talk to.  Gail was already working on a stained glass piece, Scott was ready to show me the gallery.

Gypsy Fox Jewelry by Elaine Pataky.  Elaine has lived all around the U.S.  She has a formal education in Fine Arts, Interior Design and is a flower show judge for National Garden Clubs.  Her medium has become jewelry; working as a wire-sculptor, using semi-precious stones and glass and crystal beads.

Steve Childers is a wood turner.  Besides his beautiful work, Mr. Childers “Viewing Stones” give you something to think about.

dscn6017

“Viewing Stones are adminired and exhibited as works of art in their own right.  Consequently, they are always displayed in isolation.”  Each is unique, and perceived differently by the viewer.  Using your imagination, the stone can be a mountain, an island, an animal?  You decide.

Jacob’s Gems….a disability, that did not stop him.  Paper shredding with a note, perfect for packing material and fillers.
