Fall is Coming..... Join us For our Open House

Elf on a Shelf

For those of you that don't know this is how the Elf on the Shelf works: Every day from Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, each family's scout elf watches over the children and then at night, once everyone goes to bed, the elf flies back to the North Pole to report back to Santa about what activities, good and bad, took place throughout the day. Before the family wakes up each morning, the scout elf flies back from the North Pole and hides. By hiding in a new spot each morning around the house, the scout elf and the family play an on-going game of hide and seek. The Elf on the Shelf explains that elves get their magic by being named. In the back of each book, families have an opportunity to write their elf's name and the date that they adopted it. Once the elf is named, the scout elf receives its special Christmas magic which allows it to fly to and from the North Pole. However, the magic might go if touched, so the rule for The Elf on the Shelf states: "There's only one rule that you have to follow so I will come back and be here tomorrow: Please do not touch me. My magic might go, and Santa won't hear all I've seen or I know." Although families aren't supposed to touch their scout elf, they can talk to it and tell it all their Christmas wishes so it can report back to Santa accurately. Sounds fun huh! Coming this Fall!

We offer a large variety of curtains here at The Falls Country Gift Shoppe. We have everything from your standard valance and tier to sheer panels and farmhouse swags. So come see our selection we are sure you will love it!

Sheer Panels: Tobacco cloth is a very old fabric with a whole lot of prim. It is a lightweight, thin loosely woven fabric with cotton in plain weave similar to cheesecloth. Color is a light ash-brown. It was used for pretty much everything, as shade covering for tobacco plants, for crinolines, tea bags, bandages and even curtains! Panel has a tab on the bottom for tying up on the left or right. Try hanging the cloth on jute instead of a rod. Very primitive! 46"w x 63"l (72" before shrinking) 46"w x 84"l (93" before shrinking)

Hand Rolled Blinds: Fabric is woven on antique looms and is a reproduction of a popular 1700s fabric, called "Huck Lace" and that was made for toweling, curtaining and table linens. It is believed the word "huck" is derived from the linen toweling that was peddled by the traveling "hucksters". A primitive must have! 100% cotton. Color is natural linen. Machine wash: cold. Dry: medium. Hang on 1" rod. This curtain gets its stability from a wood dowel rod placed in the bottom opening or you can easily be very primitive and use a stick from your backyard. Another option is to buy an extra 3/8" tension rod for the bottom opening.

Farmhouse Swag: This window panel is made of high-quality loomed fabric in a historic pattern. it is fairly thick and very beautiful. Tieback height is adjustable. Panel can be swagged to the right or the left which every you prefer.

Engel Curtain: The engel curtain is a thick canvas like (not quite as thick) material with a cotton mustard lining. Very primitive and looks amazing in smaller windows. Availible in left or right panels 42x50. Very grungy looking!

Prairie Curtains: The Prairie Curtain is a long swag like curtain. They generally hang to the bottom of your standard size window. The curtain measures 72 inches by 57 inches with a 2.5 inch rod pocket and a 2 inch header. It comes in two pieces. This curtain is fully lined. Very nice for any home!
