Mary Dawn offers exclusive alpine handicrafts imported from the original craftsmen hidden away in the heart of the Swiss, Italian, and Austrian Alps. She has the neatest Swiss items at her booth each year. I just love to shop there. She carries the original Swiss Dog Collars (Large 1 1/2" contemporary collars - $110) and matching Leads ($80,) which are beautiful. There are many different sizes and styles of collars and leads and the prices vary, so check out Mary Dawn's web site. I love her solid oak dog kegs and decorative Swiss carting harnesses. The cowbells for home , for your Berner and your cart come in many different sizes, styles and prices. She carries handpainted Berner wooden plaques. ($90) You'll just love her alpine jewelry, scarves ($16,) Edelweiss scarf ornaments ($16,) cotton caps embroidered with alpine scenes ($16,) Traditional Alpine Key Rings ($8-$10,) Traditional Alpine Scarves or Tüechli ($10) and unique ornaments for the home. The Swiss Belts ($70-$80) and gorgeous T-Shirts $$25) are also very nice, too. She even carries Cheerful Swiss T-Shirts for our younger generation ($20) in beautifully embroidered Swiss designs. She has a realistic stuffed Berner that will easily fool your own dog or house guests. The Bernese measures 36" from tip-to-tip ($100.)
