Designer Patience Brewster recently announced her Skaneateles-based company, Patience Brewster Inc., will manufacture ornaments, enamel boxes and gift items in 2009.
Department 56 produced a line of gift and specialty items called Krinkles designed by Brewster. However, the agreements between the two companies has expired. The Minneapolis-based manufacturer will continue to sell Krinkles until January 2009.
“My creative partnership with Department 56 has been one of the most satisfying and enjoyable experiences of my professional life,” Brewster said. “I made such good friends there. They took a risk with me and my first designs. They brought my art to their far-reaching audience.”
Brewster expects to maintain high quality and attention to detail with the upcoming gift products line.
To oversee production, the company hired Hubbard Stout, formerly of Department 56, as vice president of product development and sourcing.
Brewster created Patience Brewster Cards in 2002 and she licenses her designs through her licensing company. Her cards go to about 3,000 retail stores throughout the nation, and to 20 countries.
“The new Patience Brewster gift products will be produced in trusted factories that will uphold our very high standard,” Brewster said. “Each item will be carefully monitored all along the way as we strive to ensure that our new products are better than ever.”
