Happy new year, everyone! We hope you had a splendid holiday season and wish you a happy, healthy 2017.
If you’re a long-time Tin Thimble fan, you may remember this little gem that hung over our door in our original location in Newcastle. Anyone remember?
Well, when we moved to our current location in Loomis, we weren’t able to pay our landlord for our giant thimble, so it stayed behind. The years passed and we often thought about setting aside money to buy it back, but it simply never happened. When Hannah and Dan were married in May, we stepped out onto the front porch to find the giant thimble nestled amongst wedding presents. “Wha-? Who? How did they-?” Our dear friend ,and long-time Thimble supporter, Gary Davis, had worked a deal with our past landlord to return the thimble to us.
Gary, we simply can’t thank you enough for your generosity and thoughtfulness. The Tin Thimble feels complete again with it’s giant namesake hanging above the shop. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
We love a good heart-warming story, and we love it when it’s one we can tell from the first-person point of view. Stop on by and be sure to look up (way up!) to see our giant thimble!
