It's the End of the Day on Monday... :-)

Hello!

One more trip with three more bins-o-stuff. Funny, the little booth just absorbs everything we put there...Sold a few things already! Woo Hoo! Dennis is on the hunt for a small cabinet that can be locked so precious bejewels don't "walk away." He's also going to venture all the way down to St. Pete to check out a few good thrift stores that folks told us about.

Another good night's sleep ahead of us... :-)

 

Our Booth at Knot on Main Street is Transforming Before Our Eyes!!

Hello!

Well, at the end of the day yesterday, after three car loads and one scary ride with a huge bookcase on the roof...we managed to "square" away our little "rectangle" of a booth! Here are more pics! Our backs are just a wittle sore...

We received a warm welcome from everyone! It was a fun day!


More later . . .

Good Morning!

Have been real busy gathering up all of our "cultch"...We decided to rent some space in a local antique mall and sell some "stuff" there. The rent isn't much and they only take 10% of each sale ~ So we thought it was a good idea. We've collected oodles of stuff over the years...Last night was spent pricing and we now have four large bins ready to go.This morning we will muscle over (oh the place is just a mile or so from us) a few bookcases to use for displays. Then we'll merchandise! Dennis painted a few uglies and made them pretty with some pale yellow paint. He also painted the screen and I put the fabric on the back. We'll use this to hang different things on.

Dennis will get back to the Hoosier sometime this week...maybe!

Another Transformation of the Old Hoosier


Hello! We are going to post the progress of another overhaul of our very cool Hoosier. We drove from Cape Elizabeth, Maine to Poughkeepsie, New York many years ago to pick it up. We had purchased it on ebay and decided it would be a fun trip...and it was! This piece was used as a display in our Shoppe at the time, and later, as a desk in our kitchen. When we bought the Hoosier, it was a very chippy and worn cream color that we covered with (my favorite) apple green. We are planning to haul it out of the garage and back into the house as a fine, functional addition to our household!  Stay tuned! xo Merry

 
Good morning ~ Here's Marley the Wonder Cat...Gazing out his west facing window. He is contemplating the first of many napping places for the day...  :-)
