These
exclusive sterling
silver charm bracelets and the necklace are reminiscent of your high
school days, but
with a
lot more class! Designed by Suzann Nelson and Janet Martin,
Those
Lutheran
Ladies (midwestern authors,
humorists and performers), and sold exclusively by them, the
bracelets come in two styles.
Charms
are: a
great tractor, most
likely a '53 WD Allis -- wide front end
with fenders and a hitch, a
majestic barn complete
with a double-door hayloft, an outhouse with a
half-moon in the door
-- shelter for the Sears Roebuck catalog, a
windmill with blades
that really turn, a
charming farm house
-- vintage 1910 but frequently remodeled, and a
pickup truck -- maybe a '53 Dodge.
Those
Lutheran Ladies' Charm Bracelet Sterling
Silver, 7 inches
JE -
02 $54.95
Charms
are: a
Jell-O mold, a
Bible inscribed on the binding, a cup and saucer --
not too dainty, a church with a
cross on top of the steeple, a pan for baking
bars, and Luther's
rose symbol.
Due
to popular request, we are making a
sterling
2" bracelet extension
available. This will make either the Rural or the Lutheran bracelet
9"; just the answer to the prayers of those rural, Lutheran ladies
who have developed big wrists from stirring all that
rømmegrøt and
Jell-O.
JE-Ext
Bracelet Extension $2.50
Luther's Rose Pendant
This
beautiful sterling silver
pendant of Luther's rose and 24" chain make a perfect gift for your
favorite Lutheran, from a new confirmand to a great-grandmother. The
pendant is imprinted on both sides so there is no problem with it
flipping over when you are bending down to pick up dropped church
bulletins. The quality and size of the links in the chain are
particularly nice--petite, yet strong, and the length of the chain
allows you to just pull it over your head unless you are still
sporting a foot-tall 1960s "beehive" plastered down with AquaNet.

Luther's Rose Necklace $18.95
Cloth Stuff
Whether you're drying
dishes in
a steamy church basement after the Lutefisk Supper or just
plain steaming from the inside out after a certain age, Caragana has a
practical product (
a bleachable dishtowel
or a hotflash hanky)
designed to help you maintain your cool.
And
speaking of practical, how about a sturdy apron in "new" hymnal
red. Good for men and
women of all sizes, the straps are adjustable unlike those on some
modern garments. Eight of these aprons hanging in your church basement
kitchen are just the incentive the men will need to help serve up that
slippery lutefisk. Of course, for normal events we have normal
T-shirts with abnormal slogans.
"Confirmed
Lutheran" T-shirt
Above Martin Luther's Seal it says, "This is Most Certainly
True"
and below it the shirt is stamped just like a passport saying,
"Confirmed Lutheran!" Good for today's confirmands as well as for
those who "read for the minister" when memory work really mattered and
"Public Questioning" or catechization was enough to make Lutheran
boys' voices squeak in public. Designed by Suzann Nelson and Janet
Martin, Those
Lutheran
Ladies.
Available
in Reformation Red.

Scrap Lumber King Cap
Norwegian Lutheran men, never
known for their verbosity, can now make a public statement without
saying a word! These caps are great for those quiet men in your life
who save scrap lumber so they won't have to spend good money on new
lumber, yet they spend money like flies plastered on a screen door in
August when they see a new cap they don't yet own. These caps are so
comfortable that some men, and not just Norwegian bachelor farmers,
have been known to keep them on inside the local VFW.Don't
forget to get the book that started this fashion trend, Just How Much Scrap Lumber Does A Man Need
to
Save?
Denim
blue and khaki adjustable cap embroidered with "Scrap Lumber
King." Designed by Suzann Nelson and
Janet
Martin, Those

Ladies.

Scrap Lumber
T-shirt
A sketch of a happy, busy man
looking over his scrap lumber pile and the saying, "Just How Much Scrap
Lumber Does a Man Need to Save?," from the book
of the same name, fill the front of this t-shirt. It has been suggested
that a warning label belongs with this item because a man from
Minnesota who wore the shirt to a tractor show in South Dakota almost
had it ripped off his back by a woman who found the t-shirt more
enticing than the old tractors.
Now available in two colors: white (for church
picnics and sanitation board meetings) and tan which won't show where
the coffee from your 'termos' spilled when you bumped over the culvert
they are installing on County Road 49.

A
Lutheran Nightshirt
Currently
out of stock, but watch after the First of the Year (2008)
for the newly designed, colorful, interesting nightshirt that still
will say "THIS IS ONE HOTDISH!"
It's
Lutheran because it's dark navy blue and you can't see through
it! It
says, "This is One Hot Dish"
and features the large yellow Pyrex bowl you got for your bridal shower
in the '50s. Lutheran men get so excited
when you put this on, they shake their heads and softly say, "Oh,
my!" That's as good as it gets from them, then! One size
fits all. Designed by Suzann Nelson and Janet
Martin, Those
Lutheran
Ladies.

"This Bag is not a Toy" T-shirt
Sure
we played with sticks and rocks,
but plastic bags?? Are you sick of dumb warning labels?
Stuff like warning infants who take cough medicine not to
operate machinery, or people standing in the shower (under running
water) not to operate a hair dryer. Time to make a statement?
Then it's time to wear this new red T-shirt. In other words,
"Hands Off! Don't mess with me." Designed by Suzann Nelson and Janet
Martin, Those
Lutheran
Ladies.

Jell-O
Apron
This is a no-nonsense apron in "new" hymnal red is a little
sturdier than those flimsy, see-through organdy ones you got when you
were a "waitress" at your cousins' weddings. Also good for men
who dish up
mashed potatoes at church suppers or try to be modern city-slickers
and flip burgers in the backyard. The motto above the bowl of Jell-O
states: "Lutheran Jell-O Power: One Box of Red Jell-O, One Cup of
Whipping Cream, Fondly Remembered as Lutheran Cuisine!"

Lutheran
Church Basement Dishtowel
When you're not drying dishes, you can use this towel for

printing.
