GOOD NEWS! Shop Expansion "whoo hoo!"

Going to expand my store! been waiting a long time for this day. Closing right after Halloween to start the expansion. Knocking down middle wall, painting, building, etc. Lot's of work for just two people; only Mike and myself, but the end result will be awesome! Store will grow from 900s.f. to a whopping 1200s.f.  Will reopen on Friday, November 13th (yup.. Friday the 13th!). So far, customer response has been positive, everyone can't wait!  I already have my people lined up to spread the news. Finally things are coming together!

The Right Path...

Hi All!

Just acquired 1940s and 1960s men and women vintage clothing at 2 estate sales. Cleaning, steaming, tagging and hanging like mad! I love the stuff I have and so will customers. Last week a customer came into the store said he was cleaning out a house he owned. His former tenant was a woman in her 90's sadly she passed away. Her adult children didn't want her belongings, so stored them in the adjacent garage. Long story short the owner gave me everything in the garage for free under the condition that I move everything out by Sunday. I did, when I finally unpacked everything, there was so much vintage/antique collectibles, clothing and whatnots, I was overwhelmed. Dishes were wrapped in newspaper dated from 1940 through 1952. All beautiful. It's times like these that make me feel I'm on my right path.

Cheers!

Today is a Good Day!

I have created a blog about what I love and appreciate in all things vintage. I want to share info and pics on vintage fashions, jewelry, kitch collectibles, Danish Modern and mid-century furniture of eras gone by. Today is that day...

Cheers!
