Jamie Lauritzen, has been making Wizards now for over 20 years. They are very popular the world over. Each one is completely hand made and hand sculptured. There are no two alike. They can be wise old Wizards with their Scrolls and magic potions, Mountain Men with their Charms and Crystals, or even Wizards from the East with their Magic Carpets and Hookah pipes. Only your imagination is the limit with these gentle folk.
Inside the store you will find merchandise to please all. From Wizards to Twirps, Dresses to Hats, Wind Chimes to Kites, Paintings to Pottery, Kids games to Beaded Curtains. You will be amazed at all the lovely items we have collected from around the area and around the world. Please feel free to peruse this web site at all the unique items we carry.
You can also find hand made custom masks. These masks are formed out of stiffened Chamois, and are adorned with furs, feathers, and ornaments. They are life size and hauntingly beautiful.
Hiding in the underbrush can be found wonderful little mischief makers, aptly named Twirps. These little delights are each created with sculptured fired Polymer Clay, leather, hand sewn material, fur, feathers, flowers, and anything your imagination can come up with.

This little "Gem Slinger" Twirp came from the imagination of a customer who collected Antique jewelry. All clothing, hands, face, and accessories were all hand crafted by Jamie Lauritzen. The Twirp stands on a wooden Burl adorned with real Quarts crystals, green moss, and a little magic helper who provides him with his slingshot Ammunition.
