Crystal bedecked horned frog

Linda Moss Motley ’86 invited a special “guest” to the great big Purple Party she’s hosting Thursday at her stationary and gift store, P.S. The Letter — Addy the horned frog.

Addy, who was created exclusively for P.S. The Letter by artist Jay Strongwater, is handcrafted, hand-painted and bedecked with 150 hand-set Swarovski crystals.

Motley said sales for Addy have already been stellar: The first order of 50 has already been sold. In two weeks, the second 50 will arrive, and already half of those have sold. So you’ll need to get your name on the list quickly if you want one.

There will also be plenty of fun purple items for sale at the party, including TCU stationery, towel wraps, frog pins and grilling accessories; and lots and lots of purple things, such as leather items, ornaments, pictures frames, trays, wine glasses, handbags, key chains, pillows, and much more!

The party runs from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., Aug. 26, at P.S. The Letter, 5136 Camp Bowie Boulevard, at Merrick Ave. in Fort Worth. Call 817-731-2032, or go to P.S. The Letter online.
