Better Than Jam Summer Handmade Gifts Shop

Governors Island, NY 

Whew!

The summer arts & craft fair season is dwindling to an end for LMK!

It was a tremendously busy and successful May and a positive June.

That doesn't mean we have stopped.

You can still find your favorite Musettes at BTJ Handmade Gift Shop on Governor's Island all summer long.

We may also be showing up at other stores soon. No more talk... you know about the best laid plans....


The ETSY Shop is always open for business.

And in the meantime we are working on new designs and expanding the Les Musettes universe for the Fall and Holidays Market in 2012!

Thanks for being part of it!!

Yeti Kath

Yeti Kath now lives with us among all the Musettes. She fits right in. Another fuzzy faced Musette.

Awww, Yeti Kath
While renting we could not have pets (well, we could but it was an extra monthly charge and then we heard they kept lots of the deposit fee for clean-up) but we knew we would get a cat when we moved.

Jean began looking at rescue sites. One day she saw Yeti's face and knew she had to have her. The only glitch was we still had a month to go on our lease.

Jean and I picked her up at Social Tees Animal Rescue in the East Village. We were bringing her to my brother's house for safe keeping along with their three other cats. Since it is assumed that she is a Himalyan mix, I proposed to name her Yeti. Jean was unsure and she wasn't the only one who thought Yeti was too masculine a name. Other names were thrown out there but none stuck.

Yeti began to grow as a name to everyone who knew her. She looked like a Yeti, acted like a Yeti, hid like a Yeti, bit like a Yeti (personal experience), and overall was Yeti. Jean added her middle name Kath in honor of Kathmandu hoping that Yeti Kath sounded a bit softer than plain ole' Yeti. But Yeti is it.

Yeti has been a great addition to the house. She picks up our spirits and enlivens the day. She loves the Hamilton Park neighborhood in Jersey City and enjoys walks in the park whenever she can.

Thanks, Yeti Kath.
