Once again, it is a pleasure to announce that we've added a new product line - Flatware. OK, well it's not all new, we've had some of the flatware included in our Waterford line, but we have added Reed & Barton Flatware and simplified the links to reach our flatware.
Engraving is available for many of the patterns we carry.
Which brings me to our next topic - the new Home Page layout. We receive many comments on how easy it is to navigate our site and find the right product quickly - which is great feedback for us. So while adding new products this year, we've tried to keep the same approach, while streamlining the Home Page bit. It feels a bit different, but I think it's growing on me.
Since it is likely that we'll need to make additional changes through the year, we'd really love to hear what you think about how our site works for you. Please feel free to drop us a line at mail@drakehousegifts.com.

Waterford Silver and Sonoma Spa
We are very happy to say that two new product lines have just been added: Waterford Fine Silver Gifts and Sonoma Spa. First about Sonoma Spa...
Sonoma Spa is a great line of personal spa ware that is ideal for pampering yourself at home. We have started with the Spa Therapy line which features Lavender aroma therapy. Each piece can be heated (in a microwave) to release a beautiful lavender scent and is so soft and cuddly, that words are just not enough - you have to feel it. There are also Rose, Eucalyptus. So please feel free to contact us if you're interested in those product lines.
The Waterford Fine Silver Gifts line is truly amazing. We've handled some beautiful silver in the past, but as with their crystal, Waterford has again found a way to set a new standard in silver gifts, flatware and serving ware. Here's a quick set of links:
Ballet Ribbon Collection
Children's Gifts
Flatware
Silver plated Holloware
Gift ware
Picture Frames
Sterling and Silver plated Candle ware
In addition to being finely made, engraving is available for the Waterford Silver - and it's not just initials, or monograms. Our engraver is a master craftsman using hand, machine and computerized techniques on all orders up to the most complex logos and graphics. We have even had clients use Waterford Silver for trophies and memorial presentations. Wouldn't that be nice to be holding a Waterford engraved trophy when you win your local golf outing. To see what we mean, check out our Engraving and Gift Wrapping page.
One more thing, since we strive to keep active inventory for all of our products, we sometimes don't list the full product line in our on-line store. So please feel free to contact us if you don't see what your looking for.

It took a little while, but the Google Search is up and running on the Links page.
We've also recently returned from the New York International Gift Show and came away with some great new products, such as the Sonoma Spa Collection, new Waterford Silver Gifts, and the full new Belleek line, including the 150th Anniversary Archive Collection. We'll be adding these new items throughout the Spring.

The Holiday Season
Whew! Between work and family and shopping, what a busy time of year this is - it just seems to sail by faster and faster every year. Yet we look forward to it all year long and miss it when it's over.
But one thing that was easier this year was decorating. Climbing on the roof to hang lights was just too much. Instead, we now have three lighted reindeer on the lawn and the white pillars on the porch with the red rope lights look like giant candy canes. It's all very pretty and no roof climbing needed!
Well, back to work we go! Be sure to stop by www.drakehousegifts.com.
