      Which sculps and additional colors will be retired this year? The reason I ask is that on Astral Castle it was showing that the Sea Jewel Mermaid was retired, but I hadn’t seen any posts about it. If this is true does it also mean that the Sea Fire Sconce will also retire? Sorry to bug.

            According to my papers, neither have been retired, unless they’ve retired them within the past month (which is always possible!). I think Karen could confirm if need be!

              I contacted Karen. She said that the Sea Jewel mermaid had been retired for some time (and they are now out of them at the factory), but no word yet on the sconce. Apparently they still have some left to paint at the factory, but they’re not sure if they will produce more or not after that.

                  Yeah , we retired them the way we do things: One day we realized we had sold out of them, and decided not to paint more. This is why we sometimes don’t manage to save samples for ourselves! I don’t know about the Sconce, you gotta ask Karen.

                    Hmmm. I think you should start a new policy – when you’ve sold out and decided not to make any more, make ONE MORE BATCH so that you’ll have one for yourselves (which is important, I would think!!) and we have a teensy bit of warning about something being retired.

                    Just a friendly suggestion from one of your slathering, obssessed collectors.

                      I think that would be a really great idea. That way your collectors won’t go into panic mode and start checking the sofa cushions for loose change! Or robbing banks to get the last few pieces on sale. πŸ˜€

                      It would give us a bit of a buffer so to speak.

                        Hey Frozen,

                        Where you the forum member that collected all the candle lamps? The reason I ask is if you are, could you recommend what type of screws/hardware I need to scure a heavy sconce to the wall. I purchased the Mermaid sconce and I know it’ll be heavy. Since this is the only one I have I’m not sure of the best way to hang it.

                        #512093

                        I use 3″ galvenized decking screws. If you have a stud finder it also helps! πŸ˜€

                          yup….that’s the last one I need too….and like windstonecollector said….find the stud…hmm that’s probably not a good thing to say around a lot of women….

                          but anyway…I just use a thicker screw with a bigger head on it….and put it directly in the stud at a nice angle…I didn’t get any specific kind just longer and thicker….and they work great….

                          just don’t make the angle too steep…(my wolf head jumped off the wall once because the angle was too sharp and he didn’t settle right)….

                          and I hope ski doesn’t read any of this because all of it could be soooo….taken the wrong way….

                              yes I know it was…but how else would you say it…..

                                That whole post was just sooo X-rated. Can you say “Innuendo?” I knew you could.
