Toybox Outlaws ~ Metroland article

One of our local weekly magazines did an excellent article on this ridiculous CPSIA law. You can read it here... It is a well written, in depth article on just how devastating and far reaching this law could be if something isn't done, and soon.... The author, Kathryn Geurin, is writing from the heart here, as she is also one of our local artists that will be effected by this law. My daughter, Kate Eggleston, from The Paper Sparrow, is quoted in the article... Check it out...

So Proud!

Best Hand-Crafted Gifts
The Paper Sparrow
288 River St., Troy
A newcomer to the downtown Troy boutique scene, the Paper Sparrow has already carved a distinct niche for itself, and become a huge hit with Trojan shoppers. The bright shop is stocked with a wide array of handcrafted items: jewelry, handbags, baby clothes, soaps, artwork, toys, home décor, even local honey. Meticulously selected from the works of local and national artisans by proprietor Kate Eggleston (whose handiwork makes up much of the stock), the merchandise is contemporary, artistic and distinctive. Eggleston presents monthly exhibits by local artists in the shop’s back-room gallery, and even offers classes for those inspired to explore their own creative streak. If you’re on the hunt for a one-of-a-kind gift for that hard-to-buy-for someone, or just a special treasure for yourself—this is the place to find it.

That's my Daughter!!!
