Gracie's Cottage
I am charmed by pieces of the past and love to share them with you. You can find us on Etsy - graciescottage, Twitter - @cobbletweet and selling at various markets in the area. The Gracie in Gracie's Cottage was the sweet dog that was always at my feet. I'm Jan, a follower of Christ, wife of CG, Mom to two great guys & their wives and Grandma to four adorable girls and one sweet baby boy. We live in a small farm town in Wisconsin and I love exploring the back roads and going to country auctions.
