It is with great disappointment that The Kettledrum will not be able to attend the Festival this year. I hope to be able to return next year.
Thank you to all who have come to visit me in the carriage barn and the awesome group that work so hard to make each year a success!
If you have never attended the Festival please plan to! You will have a wonderful time! - J Kerber, The Kettledrum

All of this and much more can be found this weekend (Sept. 26 & 27) at the C.H. Moore Homestead & DeWitt County Museum grounds (219 E. Woodlawn, Clinton. Illinois) 9-5 both days, rain or shine! 🍎

UPDATE: he has been adopted 🥰 THANK YOU SO MUCH ☃️❄️☃️
Because of an order cancellation, I have one triple stack X-Large (18” tall) snowman all packed up & ready to ship out ⛄️ he is 110.00 plus shipping.
I know there were two ppl that I had to tell “sorry sold out” but, going back thru messages is a daunting task.
Pls DM me if you’re interested in the last triple stack. Have a great day ☃️❄️⛄️☃️❄️☃️

It’s Valentine’s Week and I’m sharing a sweet story everyday…please send me your story with picture of your snowfolk ⛄️❄️☃️

This sweet family has chosen to keep their snowgal inside. The kids have had so much fun putting something different on her everyday 🥰 I think they are very creative…as, she is ADORABLE! So thankful they are having fun with their new snowgal and it is bringing JOY on dreary winter days ❤️. They have a large one heading their way & I can’t wait to see how they decorate with it!
