We also send two angel bookmarks with every order.  These attractive bookmarks are printed on heavy parchment card stock and feature a popular angel with an inspiring verse.  We have five different designs on five different colors of parchment card stock.  We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!
 

Over the next few weeks we will be adding many hard to find, retired angels to our Rare Finds page, including several Gallery pieces.  Please check the page often for the angels you are hoping for.

The 2012 Christmas Angels and ornament are arriving at the end of May (updated from April).  The annual 12" angel and several additional angels will be arriving in the fall.  We'll know more about them in a few months.

We have a special treat this year - two new Christmas theme angels.  The 2012 Annual Christmas figurine is "Oh Come Let Us Adore Him."    This figurine has two angels, and baby Jesus in a manger. 

We also have Holly - Spirit of the Season.  Holly is accompanied by a child carrying a little Christmas tree.  This is a real charmer, with sparkly snow and a basket of plush toys and gifts on the angel's arm.

The 2012 Christmas ornament is a minature of the Oh Come Let Us Adore Him figurine.  It is 3.75" high and 1" thick.  It can hang from its gold thread, or stand on its base.  We have attractive quantity discounts on the annual Christmas ornaments.

We have a lot of additions to our Clearance Sale, too.  Roman, Inc. offerred us some great fall quantity discounts, and as you know, we pass the savings on to you.

Now see pictures of the fall releases ~

I was very pleased to see the new designs arriving in the fall.  You can see all of the pictures on our "New in 2011" page now.  Arrival is expected in mid September, though as we have observed, sometimes the actual date is a bit later.  Everything will be in stock for Christmas, though.  I'll make these available for sale about a month before they arrive. 

New in our store this year, angel garden statuary ~

I love the garden angels from Joseph's Studio.  The detail, the warm colors, the peaceful emotional message  - all of these appeal to me.  Just like my Seraphim Angels, I love to just look at them.  

Two of the garden angels make lovely memorial figurines.  The angel with the cross is prettier that you can tell from the picture.  There is a lovely white dove on the left side of the cross, and the roses are amazing.  

Right now I have most of the garden angels featured on our Home Page.  To all all of them, click on the link below.  There's a few more that are not on the Home Page.

Lots of retired angels arriving this summer ~

The warmer weather motivates the retired gift store owners to call me and ask if I want to buy the Seraphim Angels inventory that they still have.  I always say yes!  If I get something rare and unusual, I put it on my "Rare Finds" page, for those of you who want to look for something special without looking through all of our extensive inventory.  You can send me a "Retired Angel Wish" email if you are wishing for specific angels.  Many angels are never seen on my web site, but are sold as soon as they come in to the people who have asked me to contact them for their "wish" angel.  

I'd better get back to work - oh boy, do I have a lot of retired angels to unpack!
 

All of the 2011 new releases have been announced.  Our New in 2011 page is the place to see them all.  As of this date we are waiting for pictures of the September arrivals.  Here's the list:

These are arriving at the end of June.  You may preorder if you wish, but we will have a plentiful supply. 

- What a Wonderful World - three angels enjoying a country picnic
- Gloria, Heavenly Adoration - the 2011 annual Christmas Angel
      and the matching ornament

In addition, we selected several pieces of the best-selling garden angel statuary from Roman, Inc.  You can see these gorgeous angels on the bottom of our Home Page.  The detail and quality of these garden angels surpasses anything I've seen, and the prices are very competitive.  These sturdy figurines are designed for outdoor use, but I can imagine them indoors as well.  Inventory of these garden angels is arriving with the 2011 Seraphim Angels at the end of June.  Be sure to look at the solar powered birdbath.

We have quite a selection of newly retired angels, all at 30% off or more.  The most recent price reductions are on:

- Blessing From Heaven - an angel looking down on kneeling parents and baby

Please see the post immediately below for the rest of the list of 30% or more discounts on recently retired angels.  Quantities of all of these are limited, of course, because they are retired.

We just received a large shipment directly from Roman, Inc., which included some new volume discounts.  We are passing the savings on to you and have just reduced prices on several angels:
    Antoinette - 12" angel with butterflies
    Cara - with bluebird and birdcage
    Ivy - with balloons and bunnies
    Janice - playing a guitar
    Kyra - painting at an easel
    Marianne - with old fashioned water pump - signed COA
    Miranda - flying a butterfly kite
    Heavenly Promenade - three angels on a bridge

Qunatities are limited at these prices. 

Here's one especially for those of you who read my blog regularly.  From time to time we have one of a less common retired angel.  You probably don't want to look through all of our retired angels hoping to find these gems.  I've created a new page, "Rare Finds."  On this page I will show these one-of-a-kind retired angels.  There's a blue link to this page in the left column of most of my pages, right under the "Retired Angels" page link.  (And, at last, finally I have implemented my automated inventory feature so that if the only one of an angel has been sold you will be able to see that it is "out of stock" instead of being able to purchase it.)

We have four new releases to show you.  They will be ariving in mid May.  Most of this year's angels will make their debut in the fall.  Usually we have more spring releases, but some designs weren't approved yet, so we just have to wait.  Alas, no sneak previews for fall releases are available.

The 2011 Christmas Annual Angel is Glory, Heavenly Adoration:
A charming nativity tableau.  An ornament will also be available.

Hope, Light in the Distance - reintroduced as an 8" angel:
One of my favorite designs, with a blue dress and pink sash,
not exactly like the retired 12" angel.

What a Wonderful Life - three angels delighting in a country picnic:
Many charming details: a bunny, colorful fruit, pretty flower trim on dresses.

We've been really busy lately, buying and unpacking hundreds of retired angels from two closing gift stores in the midwest.  We have a few ensembles of the 2000 Nativity pieces, and a few complete sets of the 2002 four inch, 16 piece sets of the same Nativity.  We have added lots of 4" angels and retired ornaments, perfect small and affordable gifts. 

Did you know that the Meri Angel has a lamp post that actually lights?  All you need is two AA batteries.  If you don't have them on hand you can buy them from us to go with the Meri Angel.

One of my favorite Christmas angels is Holly.  The two white doves on the holly wreath in her hands are beautiful, perfectly designed details from the skilled hands of the artist, Gaylord Ho.  We were very fortunate to be able to get several Holly angels for our Christmas inventory. 

We just received an amazing selection of brand new angels at special prices.  When we receive volume discounts from the manufacturer, we pass the savings on to you.  Here is a list of the angels that we are selling at Clearance Sale prices:

Some of these brand new angels have boxes that have bumped corners or wrinkled edges - look for our "Oops! Wrinkled Box Discount" to save even more.

Have you looked at our new "Gifts Under $35" page?  We have reduced prices on several additional retired angels, recently acquired from a retiring store owner.  You can find many of them on this new page:

Celebrate the True Spirit of Christmas with gifts that show God's love for children ~

We were able to obtain a generous quantity of the 2008 Gina "Holiday Light" ornaments at a special price from Roman, Inc.  We are donating these ornaments to raise money for two World Vision projects.  You can buy a Gina ornament and give either a Bible or school soccer balls to impoverished children.

It will mean more than you can imagine for a child who's eager to have a Bible in his or her own language. What a wonderful way to show a boy or girl God's love. In many countries, poverty starves more than stomachs. The Bibles that feed minds and souls are scarce, especially where growing churches have more new believers than Bibles in their local language.

Children around the world love to play soccer. Many children in impoverished communities play with "soccer balls" made of banana leaves or rolled-up trash.

When you purchase this 4.75" Gina ornament, we send the ornament to you and we send 100% of the proceeds to World Vision to buy Bibles or school soccer balls.  Each purchase provides one Bible or two soccer balls.

Please look at the World Vision Gift Catalog on-line at www.worldvisiongifts.org to see a delightful variety of gifts that you can give to help needy children and families all over the world. World Vision is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to working with children, families and their communities worldwide to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice.

If you wish to give give this gift to someone, we will enclose a card telling your gift recipient about the Bible or soccer balls that are being purchased for impoverished children.

All of the Fall 2010 Seraphim Angel releases have been received at the Roman, Inc. warehouse - more than a week earlier than expected.  Our store inventory is on the way to us.  We expect to be shipping these angels in early November.  You can order them now - at our great sale prices, of course.  If your order includes only new Fall release angels, we can ship them to you immediately, directly from Roman, Inc.  If your order includes angels that are in stock only at our Maple Valley location, we will ship your entire order after we receive our inventory of the new releases. 

Last year I purchased some angel inventory from a retailer who had closed her store.  I recently received an email from her, asking if I knew anyone who might be interested in purchasing original Seraphim Angel sketches by Gaylord Ho.  She wishes to sell them in sets of two, $400 for each set, plus shipping.  If you are interested, please contact me and I will put you in touch with her.  I am not selling these myself or earning a comission; I simply wish to help her make a collector very happy.  Here is her description:

"Do you remember the 2006 and 2007 Club pieces? The 2006 pieces featured the Angel at the mailbox (Kayli) and the Angel by the fireplace (Kendall). The 2007 pieces featured the Angel by the grandfather clock (Destiny) and the Angel with the grand piano (Angelica).

 I have the original sketches ---- and they are signed by Gaylord Ho. These are NOT the reproductions that club members received in their membership kits, but rather are the actual originals, that the reproductions were produced from.

These sketches were sketched in pastels and again, are signed by Master Sculptor Gaylord Ho. They are stored in protective plastic and stored between pressed wood "sheets" to keep any of them from bending or folding. These are truly "one of a kind" pieces, have never been created before and will never again be created. They are signed and dated."

We have purchased brand new inventory of many of the 2000 Seraphim Angel wafer ornaments.  These 3.5" to 4" ornaments are designed to hang on a gold thread.  They are about 3/4" thick and lighter in weight than the ornaments of the annual Christmas angel.  Many favorite angel designs were made in wafer ornaments, and we have several of them.  We have two product pages for the wafer ornaments, showing them on the two original catalog pages.  Shop both pages and then select your quantity discount for the total number of wafer ornaments that you wish to purchase. 

We are offering generous quantity discounts on our wafer ornaments, for example:
Buy two and get $2 off each one
Buy six to ten and get $3 off each one
(These particular quantity discounts apply to the wafer ornaments only.)

The wafer ornaments are presented in an attractive pink gift box, with the angel on red velveteen in an oval window.  Here's an opportunity to share the beauty of Seraphim angels with an affordable gift.   Surprise your special friends, family or co-workers with a lovely collectible Seraphim angel ornament.  I just love these - I'm giving my sister several of them - she loves angel ornaments on her Christmas tree, and these are the most beautiful I've ever seen.

We also have limited quantitites of the Seraphim Angel Stocking Holders.  These elegantly crafted stocking holders feature four of the annual Christmas angels: Noelle, Joy, Ceceste and Cecelia.  They have a nicely weighted base and will easily hold a decorative fabric stocking.

Madeline "Faithful One" is a kneeling angel designed in proportion to the 12" Limited Edition series.  A white dove on her flowing scarf looks up into her peaceful face, buttercups adorn her hair and shoulders, and roses surround her.

We have two one Madeline Angel in stock.  Suggested Retail is $135 and our sale price is $79.95. 

9/13/10: We are temporarily sold out, but we four more arriving in about two weeks.

Just in -

One Musical Diana Angel on the wooden base. 
The tune is "Angels Amoung Us."

We have one Musical Iris Angel.  The base is resin/stone with garlands of roses around it.

And, one of one of my favorites: Chelsea "Summer's Delight,"  Chelsea is from the Nature's Caregiver series, designed to capture the infinite bounty of creation.

We have four signed pieces of A Celebration of Life.  Only 500 of these were made.  This is the exuberant 2008 sculpture with three angels and white horse.  I remember the first time I saw it - my response was: I can feel the joy the artist put into this one . . . all of the flowers, and that amazing horse.

New 2010 angels are coming in just a few week, and we need to free up some space for them.  I just lowered prices $1 to $5 on 60 products.  I updated  the Clearance Sale Page to show many of the lowest prices items. But here's the longer list:

We just received some of those beautiful Carousel Angels.  We have four complete sets.  Each set has four angels on carousel horses - Stephanie, Emily, Taylor and Blythe - and the carousel canopy.  We have a few additional Stephanie, Taylor and Blythe angels that can be purchased separately.

We also have four sets of 8 pieces each of the 2000 Nativity figures.  Each set includes Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus, two little lambs, two shepherds and the Gloria Angel.  Each piece has beautiful detail in the design and creation.  The lambs are charmingly cute and make this set expecially appealing. 

We have two sets of Garden of Angels pieces available.  These sets include Amy, Andrea and Sarah and several accessories.  Both sets have the 3 piece Garden Gate, the flower beds and the birdbath.  One set also has the wheelbarrow with rose bush.  We have one Garden Gate, one Andrea and two Sarah angels for sale individually.  We don't have Dominique on the garden bench, but there are two similar angels that you might like - Michelle and Melissa.  Michelle is also seated on a white garden bench.  Melissa is seated at a white wrought iron table. 

I have my Garden gate behind Dawn and Victoria, two of my favorite angels.  I have Juliette on the left.  I love to show off this shelf of my curio - everyone who sees it is so impressed with the rose covered Garden Gate.  And of course, I love to look at it myself.

Serenity  "Trusting Soul" - 3 available
Gabriel - one 7" and one 4" available
Anna  "Tranquil Heart" - 1 available

We have also added the three piece Garden Gate set.  We have three available.  I love this set of rose covered trellises and palisades - it makes a really gorgeous display in my curio.  I have Dawn and Victoria in front of the two trellises.  My garden scene attacts a lot of compliments.

We also have two of the very rare birdbaths, with the miniature of Alyssa, and one of the rosebush/wheelbarrow accessory.

Do you remember when the Monique, the 2009 annual Christmas angel sold out last fall and many customers could not get one for Christmas?  You wouldn't be able to get one now except that I asked Roman, Inc. if they would produce more if I would take 100, and 300 more Monique were produced.  So - I have about 75 Monique angels on hand, taking up lots of space.  I am selling the first 50 Monique angels at $49.95.  When they are sold the price will go up on the last 25.  Now is a good time to save a few dollars if you know you want Monique.

When Roman, Inc. offers us lower prices, we pass the savings on to you. 
Prices have been lowered by $3 on:
   Barbara
   Karen
   Lisa
   Maureen
   Selena
   Violet
