Show & Tell: My trip to Old Salem, N.C.

[@lindareinking5326]

Loved this. Praying for folks affected by the storm❤❤

[@cabincrafts2239]

Me too! They still need lots of help!

[@Elisabeth-zi8ww]

Loved your new redware pieces, Kandye..I too love simple redware pieces..the cookies looked yummy 😋.. I truly believe that charity begins at home, not in some foreign governments war..our government needs to help our own first.. this is why we pay taxes, to help our fellow Americans in time of need. Take care from Arizona 🌵

[@cabincrafts2239]

Amen! So sick of sending our money to useless wars when there's suffering right here at home!

[@Elisabeth-zi8ww]

@@cabincrafts2239 Basically in your own backyards, homelessness, families that can't afford to feed their children fruits and vegetables, seniors on a fixed income, basically only receiving a small Social Security check and of course the Indian Reservation's, one of our reservations up in the northeast part of the state, several homes just received electricity installed in their houses, it's 2024 not 1924 and it snows there and gets down right chilly..Where was the Federal government all those years???🥴

[@Elisabeth-zi8ww]

Oh yes, Franklin Graham is my charity of choice before the so-called non-profit organizations...😊... just saying..

[@cabincrafts2239]

Exactly!

[@cabincrafts2239]

Mine too!

[@Jennlovesstitching]

Beautiful pieces you bought, enjoyed this video, thank you !

[@cabincrafts2239]

You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cherylatkinson7479]

Kandye I'm glad you got to go on your trip and take us along in your videos. The redware pottery pieces you bought are beautiful. I'm glad you made it back home safely. I'm praying for the people of WNC it's a mess up there in more ways than one. Kudos to your son who's taking the hay to them.👏 I heard from another KZbinr that I follow that's boots on the ground had a unconfirmed report that 3 people froze to death last night.😢 I know all the attention is on WNC and rightly so but, we need to pray 🙏 and help people along the gulf coast of Florida where hurricanes 🌀🌊 Helene and Milton came onshore.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you Cheryl! It will be a rough Christmas for many I'm afraid. Praying for these people!

[@Nannaof10]

Heartbreaking 💔 God Bless Samaritan Purse and all civilians helping those people 🙏 😢

[@cabincrafts2239]

Amen! I agree!

[@lindalarson1948]

Your videos really capture the true meaning of Christmas. You are such a blessing.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you Linda!

[@aimee2234]

My husband is from middle TN. The pottery is beautiful and I loved your videos. Thank you for sharing your vacation with us. Be blessed always, Kandye! xoxo

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you Aimee! Some of the most beautiful pottery I've ever seen!

[@robinrhea6125]

I live an hour away from Asheville, in Johnson City TN....thank you for mentioning these conditions and people , they need our help and prayers!

[@cabincrafts2239]

You're welcome! My heart breaks for these people!

[@christinem8383]

Love everything you showed. Yes, charity begins at home. I do cross stitching and a couple of designers donated designs and all proceeds went to NC. I got the patterns and just finished Go Tell It On the Mountain by the Proper Stitcher. It stitched up nice and I can't wait to hang it up for Christmas. Just need to help. My sister genealogy and she said we have some Moravian way back love the stars. Thanks again for the show and tell!

[@cabincrafts2239]

You're welcome! Cool you have Moravians in your ancestry!

Thank you so much! Glad you're enjoying the field trips!

[@suzanneandersen7319]

Such a lovely trip and love the pottery! ❤

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! It's been a long time since I've gone anywhere! Much needed!

[@suzanneandersen7319]

@@cabincrafts2239 So happy for you Kandye!

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thanks!

[@janeschreiner5000]

A squirrel flask must be beautiful! I love your red ware. I love gingerbread bunnies.

[@cabincrafts2239]

The squirrel was awesome, but they didn't have any reproduction available. Hope you make ginger bunnies with your cutter!

[@tlrice72]

Thanks Kandye! Now I know more about the green star (from you) hanging on my tree! 😊

[@cabincrafts2239]

You are so welcome! They had a few for sale there but they were twice the price I sell mine for!

[@pbrn1729]

Thank you very much, Kandye for your interesting cider! I will also look up Samaritan’s purse 💕🙏🏻💕🙏🏻 I wish you a very Merry Christmas And Happy and Healthy New Year 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕💕💕

[@cabincrafts2239]

You are so welcome! Merry Christmas!

[@lisaogg6337]

Praying for those people. All your redware is beautiful! Love the bear, he's so adorable! The cookies look delicious and thank you for all the wonderful information that you shared with us all! it was very interesting! God Bless y'all

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you Lisa!

[@user-lf1qo5hj1z]

Beautiful pottery! LOVE that oil lamp! ❤ the first thing i thought of when i saw it was that looks like something from the Bible.

[@cabincrafts2239]

I thought the same thing, it's a beautiful piece! That's why I bought it!

[@kymburriss4260]

Your pottery is beautiful ❤

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you!

[@LindaStein-ze8bk]

Oh my goodness, see Kandye, case and point. I always learn so much from you. Never knew the Moravians were Protestant first. I have always enjoyed the ginger Moravian cookies at Christmas time. My favorites are those tiny jugs. Jesus please bless those Dear people in North Carolina. Our church did the Samaritains purse as well for them. Bless your Son.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you Linda! They're going to need our prayers and support a long time!

[@LindaStein-ze8bk]

@@cabincrafts2239 Yes Ma'am you are correct about that.

[@mothership8032]

So glad you got to visit old Salem in NC . I have been there but not during the holiday season. The lemon cookies are also yummy! It’s heartbreaking that the storm victims are still suffering , hope they get relief soon. Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy New Year🎉

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! I know Samaritans Purse is still in there, trying to build temporary housing.

A favorite Christmas memory is going to Bethlehem, PA at night. The lit up glass Moravian stars outside homes and restaurants (usually under porticos and front porches) were incredible. I forgot to order some paper ones from you. I will next time. All the best…

[@cabincrafts2239]

All the porches and buildings in Salem had them too! They were beautiful at night!

[@ardicesaugar3979]

I thought the bear was a giant squirrel at first. Hahaha! Praying that those in need will be supplied.

[@cabincrafts2239]

I thought so at first too when I bought it because they talked about the squirrel so much, then I realized when I got home it was the bear, which was rarer.

[@darlenethompson9325]

Loved your field trip. It’s so very sad what happened. Our government should be helping, I don’t know why they’re not.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! Govt is worthless!

[@FarmhouseWorthy]

Could you tell about the little doll over your right shoulder, so cute. Crock bread recipe please.I also like the gingerbread man wreath, lovely.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! The little doll is an antique. I don't remember where I picked him up. He is homemade and if you place a thin piece of wood between your knees and tap it, it makes his legs do a little jig. For crock bread, you can use any bread recipe and bake it in that crock. Just do it as if you were using a loaf pan. The pottery bakes it evenly. I don't have a specific recipe. I imagine you could do quick breads in it too.

[@Nannaof10]

A fish flask would be fun to have

[@cabincrafts2239]

Unfortunately they didn't have any reproduction ones!

[@Nannaof10]

Moravians had a 24/7 prayer meeting for 100 years! Some also were so committed to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ, that they sold themselves into slavery to hopefully win more to Christ. Heard about them 25+ years ago

[@cabincrafts2239]

A very dedicated group of folks! I've always loved their history!

[@janeschreiner5000]

Do you remember the thin candy ribbon? I wonder who made that (nationality).

[@cabincrafts2239]

Hammonds makes that still and so so Hercules Candy Co.

[@janeschreiner5000]

@ I’ll look into that. All I can find is the thicker modern ribbon candy which just isn’t the same.
