New Finds

Don't forget -- Canton is just a week away. Hope you have a chance to come out and do some junking! We've been doing a little bit of that ourselves! Always looking for new merchandise and hoping to find some unusual items. While we were working on our building today, I snapped some pictures of some of the new items we found. Here's a peek at just a few of them.

Anxiously waiting......

During our Canton weekend in June, our good friend Linda Hatfield, who is the director of marketing for Canton First Monday, brought in a couple of very nice young ladies. They were with Charm; a bi-monthly magazine that is associated with the Longview newspaper. The features editor interviewed me and the photographer took lots and lots of pictures of everything in our building. We exchanged e-mails over the next week with the editor asking a few more questions and said they had some great pictures of our displays that would be used in an upcoming issue of Charm. Lillie and I anxiously waited for the issue. We checked their website every day. Drumroll please......

Well, we didn't get mentioned in the article, but the dress form wearing the girdle is from one of our displays. It is a very nice article on Canton First Monday Trade Days, but we had really hoped it might mention us. By the way, the girdle and the dress form sold last month......

Sooooo........ this past Canton we get another visit from our good friend Linda. She has a cable television crew with her. Can they film our merchandise and would we sign these release forms? SURE WE WILL!!!! It's "Empty Nesters" (click to see more) -- which launches in Fall 2008 on Veria TV (channel 9575 on DISH Network).

Lillie and I are once again anxiously waiting......

Canton 4th of July

Hope everyone had a fun and safe July 4th holiday. Don't you just love fireworks!?! We got to enjoy the holiday at Canton with a fantastic fireworks show right on the grounds! Thanks to everyone who braved the hot weather and came out to see us.

The picture to the left is a close-up section of a wonderful old 4-panel decoupaged scrap art screen we have available.

Here are some more pictures for you to enjoy. If you visited us on Thursday or Friday, you might not remember seeing some of the items shown. We had a great show and had to restock Friday night. Be sure to leave a comment and let us know what you think.
