WILD WELCH WOMEN FOR THE WELCH CLAN



Last year I got a call from a J. Welch who had seen one of my Wild Welch Women Pendants at Promanade Gallery in Berea. She was interested in why I had misspelled "Welch" as her family were named Welch, and not Welsh. Well, I told her, "I am a terrible speller!" Luckily for me, misspelling the name was just what brought me an order for these pins--10 of them developed over the year--for her Welch relatives!!! Yes, the Welch family will hold a reunion soon and guess what will likely be the highlight for them after the kissing and hugging? I can only hope! Thank you J. Welch! They are in the mail!
