Our new friends at Two Classy Chics posted a wonderful review of our Mother Measuring Spoons earlier this week! We were very touched when we read some of the nice comments they made:

• The curved handles on these spoons is so lovely! They fit so nicely in my hand. The weight of these spoons is amazing.
• No fumbling around trying to find the right one to use.
• The handles are curved at the end to create a hanging hook with the message “A Mother’s love is beyond measure” imprinted on them.
• The spoons are imprinted with all of the different ways to say “Mom” and “Grandma” in many different languages.
• These are amazingly beautiful! I almost don’t want to use them!

Aww- thank you ladies!  Keep in mind, while our measuring cups and spoons are indeed lovely- they are meant to be used- so go for it!

The Two Chics are also hosting a Giveaway of our Mother Measuring Spoons. Visit their site and read Crosby & Taylor Pewter Measuring Spoons Review & Giveaway to learn how to enter (there are numerous methods of entry)!  Hurry-this giveaway will close on July 7th , at 11:59pm EST Time.

A few months ago we contacted all of the wonderful shops and galleries that carry our products and asked what they would like us to make for Mother’s Day. From all of the entries, we chose Karen Monte’s from KaDee Kay Gourmet Kitchen Products in Mount Dora, Florida.

KaDee Kay Gourmet Kitchen Products is a retail store selling unique kitchen items in Mount Dora Florida in the beautiful The Arbors & Eyebrows complex.

She suggested that we make double-ended Measuring Spoons. We thought it was brilliant and a perfect addition to our product line. We awarded her with $350 in merchandise and she also got 3 pairs of these new spoons.

I have never been to Mount Dora but I will definitely have to stop in next time I’m in Florida – and I hope you will, too – because this looks like a really fun place to shop.

Thank you, Karen, for entering our contest – and for submitting this great idea!

Congratulations again to our 9 Facebook Friends who have each won a set of our new Made for Mother Measuring Cups! In February, we asked you to share the names which you use for your mothers and grandmothers.

Mothers Are Never Out of Season!

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, Sunday May 8th! But we know full well that every day is a day to honor the mothers, grandmothers, step-mothers and other important women in our lives. Mothers are never out of season! Personally, I am blessed to have three wonderful daughters, one daughter-in-law, and two grandsons. Being a mother and a grandmother is pretty much the best thing ever!

Right now we are putting the final touches on our new Made for Mothers Collection. An important design element in this new collection actually comes from our Facebook Fans! Earlier this year, we asked them to submit names which they use for their moms and/or grandmothers. The response was amazing! Each person, whose name was incorporated into our new pieces, will be receiving a free set of Mother Measuring Cups (retail value $158)! These winners will be announced next week.

The entire Made for Mothers Collection will be available for order (just in time for Mothers Day) beginning next week and will consist of Measuring Spoon Sets, double-ended single Measuring Spoons, Measuring Cups, and a Spoon Rest. Here is a sneak preview of the Collection – our double-ended Measuring Spoons.
