October/November issue of Village D-Lights has arrived

A brand new festive fall issue of Village D-Lights, a wonderful magazine of village collecting, display tips and product information, arrived in my mailbox on friday. I still haven't read through everything, basically because it is packed with a lot of good content.

Here is what you'll find in this (October/November) issue:

* The cover story is on the SSRG (Suncoast Southern Regional Gathering) and features many great displays of the award winners.

* An interview with Department56 president Steve Ruelle.

* A spotlight on Lorrie's Gifts and Collectibles

* A profile of Snowbabies creator Kristi Jensen Pierro.

* Tips on adding a staircase to your display.

* Creating a Harvest-themed display

* Updates on the new Greenbook - an updated version of the classic price guide. They are looking for a new name. Anyone with creative inspiration for naming the guide can visit the Village D-lights website and contact them with ideas. My idea for the new guide is "The Village Collector's Valuebook". Nothing too corny or cute, but effective, I believe.

There's also many regular sections of the magazine: reader submissions, letter from the editor, trivia, display ideas, hints and tips, and much more!
