May Canton

Another Canton weekend has come and gone. Except for that nasty tornado on Friday morning, it was a great show! We were in town about to go into the store to stock up on snacks when we heard the sirens going off! The clerks in the store were all outside talking on their cell phones and pointing down the street. We didn't have a clue what was happening. They said a tornado had touched down on the grounds!! Well, needless to say - we didn't get any snacks! We jumped in the car and headed to the Canton grounds. We checked on our building -- everything ok there. Lillie's mom sets up in the original pavilions, so we made sure she was safe. Then we made our way to the Arbors to check on all our friends there (we both used to set up in Arbors II). Most of the damage seemed to be between Arbors II and Highway 19. They were a little shook up, but nothing serious. Glad to hear that!!

Turned out to be a gorgeous day! And one of the busiest shows we have had! Thanks to everyone who stopped in!

Here are a few pictures from the show. ENJOY!!

Garden items were 'hot' this show!


Love the crusty cart! Love the sold tag!


The mission oak swing and iron table found new homes.


This cute marble top table also found a new home.


A unique display like this one always gets their attention....


This way to the 'good' junk!!


Relax on this sweet little velvet chaise.


The creamy white ironstone really pops in this dark wood shelf.


These cash register numbers went fast!!


More rusty crusty garden items. More sold tags. We love them both!!


Great old wicker chairs look wonderful around this glass top table.


Another garden setting....


Even sold this sign right off the front of our building. Nothing is safe around here!!



Hope you enjoyed the pictures. Please excuse the poor quality. We probably have the first digital camera that was ever made!! Everything looks sooooo much better in person -- so stop in and see us next Canton!

Anniversary

One year ago we moved from The Arbors (which we love) to our current location which we affectionately call The Veranda. We moved because it's a 'lock & leave' building -- which means we don't have to unpack and set up every Wednesday of Canton and then pack it all up on Sunday and haul it home. All you dealers that do shows know what hard work that is and especially if you have one of those nasty 9-5 jobs like we do. This April show will be our one-year anniversary and the first month that we have the entire building to showcase our 'look'. We hope you will stop by and see us this month or any time you make the trip to Canton. We are located at Roads 43 & 43A -- by the creek. Maybe these photos from shows from the past year will entice you to stop by and say Hello!







The pictures below are from our fun Fourth of July show. As if you couldn't tell from all the red, white & blue.....





Here are some photos from our eerie Halloween weekend. Don't be scared.....






Hope you enjoyed the pictures! Come share our excitement over our 'new and improved' -- and BIGGER -- space. Hope to see you soon!
