3 Days of Shopping, 2 Hernias and a Packed Truck later....(updated Wednesday night)

Yea! We are finally home from our Market Trip to PA!! I thought I would post a few photographs of SOME of our findings You don't get to see the Halloween or Christmas goodies til later! (And I ran out of daylight before I could get everything snapped into a picture...)



We had to do a little creative packing at the hotel to get everything in the Suburban without letting the crushable stuff get crushed....but after everything came out onto the parking lot and then went back into the car...we slammed the door, made a pact that we weren't going to stop anywhere to shop on the way home and finally pulled into the driveway 8 hours later!



We picked us some awesome tobacco stick trees...great the way they are if you want to keep it simple or put one out in your garden to cultivate a vining trumpet vine on...$29.95 each. We're going to put one in the shop with one of our new autumn berry star vines on it...and maybe some little brown corded lights...wouldn't that look great out on your porch or screen room!( SOLD ALL WE HAD THIS WEEKEND...BUT WE HAVE 12 MORE COMING AND A LIST IS GOING!)

One of the antiques shop we went to yielded a fantastic little stool with orig. blue paint ($45) (SOLD), and the little tinware tin churn (missing its insides) would be a great little planter or put it in your kitchen and stash something in it...($38).SOLD

Awesome blue butt basket with navy paint..$48 (SOLD) and a LIBERTY sign for $22.95

Here are the rest of the pictures of the goodies that will be in the shop...hopefully we can fit everything in by the weekend! It's taking me way tooooo long to write all the descriptions...so yall can email me for pricing or better yet...come see us!


















Like I said.....I didn't take a picture of a handful of things that will come in this weekend...it finally got too dark...and you don't get to see the Halloween or Christmas goodies until it's time! PLUS....I ordered a bunch of goodies...some coming in now...some for later!

I've had several girls ask for primitive wool roving for hair and beards....found some! I ran into a lady who raises sheep at the show...absolutely great wool roving for any primitive project..and it's already been washed and ready to use! It'll be in the shop this weekend!

We've got bolts of fabric coming in from Jo Morton's Annadale, Toasty, Carolina and Ravenwood lines...they MIGHT make it here by Friday...I'll let you know if they do!
Jo's new line...Sweet Emily...will be shipping in July...not sure of the exact date...but the entire line is coming! WOOHOO!!

I've had several inquiries about the bee skeps...here's the scoop...they are definitely made to go outside! And the guy who makes them said if you slather it up with buttermilk and put it in a shadier place, it will get all mossy! I think I might have to try that! Prices of the skeps are as follows...
Mini ones...$7.95 (have 4)
Medium ones...$18.95 (have 2 I think)
Large ones (like in the picture in its little house...$38.95 (have 2)
One tall skinny one...$49.95 (have one)
And the really big one...$89.95 (have one)

That's it for now...I'll update later if anything else shows up! In the meantime...keep busy doing something you love and we hope to see you this weekend!
