Updates

So.....some updates have occurred:

The last banner from Scott Hampton went to a new home this weekend.

New prices in the Yard Sale on some items are in place.

Sold items have been cleared off the Yard Sale (there might be one or two items pending sale though).

A new kite maker page is almost ready to launch.

and......

it was a rainy but friend-ful day at Nahant for the the KONE regional event this past Saturday.  

We did have a fun time, just not exactly as expected!

Keep an eye peeled for the new page of kites!

Good winds

All the Aerial Art kites by Scott Hampton have now flown away!

Sadly we are all out of Scott's fabulous kites.
We will get more as soon as we can and as soon as Scott makes some more.

In the meantime we do have a selection of his banners in stock.
These are painted ripstop that come with the telescoping pole.
Great for the front yard, a party, a bazaar, a fundraiser, a wedding, the kite field, anytime you want to add some color!
Here is the page of banners

New Items, not kites though.

Okay, I will admit it. I have a thing for Rubber Duckies. Always have. I have no clue as to what started it. Our niece was staying with us, and I mentioned something about there being at least one rubber ducky in each room. Thanks to good suppliers-I mean friends we can actually say that, the bathroom alone has the smallest duck and the largest duck, and about 15 others.

A good friend was at the American Kite Association National Convention in 2006, I called him to see if there was anything in the auction I might be interested in. "A bunch of yellow ducky banners" Rob said. I immediately had to have them. Two weeks later a package of yellow ducky banners appeared at the house, and have since then spent a lot of time in the front yard-to the amusement of our neighbors!

2007 AKA National Convention comes around, but this time he called me to see if i wanted to add to the flock. "Of course!" Three weeks later our Ducky flock had doubled, but with a few new Duck species.

So, it is with much delight that I announce that Windswept Kites is only retailer carrying Mike and Cel Dallmer's Ducky banners! You might have seen them at a festival. Well now you can get them!

How big of a flock do you need?

Restocking!!!!

A box of items from Scott Hampton is going to be on its way very soon!

While talking with Scott he did announce that there will be no more cypods until 2009. Work is taking precedence, as is another wind related art project (remaking his own display banners).
We will be getting amounts of banners, both matched sets and single banners, for all of you who wish to add to your wind garden or start a new one.

But, a limited amounts of kites goes quickly.........so-

Keep an eye peeled (or click here to subscribe to the WindsweptKites Atom news feed) here for posts about what has arrived.

If all goes well there will be another kite maker announcement soon, a new friend in Belgium!

Good Winds
