4 Days left until our Fall Open House!

Saturday, October 16th 9am-2pm at 1215 Brinton Circle

Getting everything set up and looking forward to seeing you all.  Check out the photos below, some of the set up & others of items for sale that haven't yet made an appearance here on the blog.  Remember to email Laura at lauraem@verizon.net if you'd like to have an item set aside for you.

1st up is all the adorable crocheted items for babies & little ones!

Highlighted in the above picture are our baby dumbbells and the baby security blankets.  The Dumbbells are $5.00 a pair - they make a unique gift for baby whose momma loves to workout!  The crocheted security blankets are a great size to take along with baby.  They are $12.00 each - brown puppy, ducky, gray puppy.

The above picture is highlighting the baby octopi - they are loved by babies and toddlers.  They make a great sensory toy & a great baby gift.  Not just babies love them - elementary age kids love them too.  The eyes are a safety eye that is made for kids toys.  They are $7.00 each (see below photo for a closer look).

These 2 baby elephants are new this year & just too cute!  They also have the same safety eyes that are made for kids toys and are $12.00 each.  In the background is the crocheted cactus "pillow" it is great for any succulent lover $8.00.

Here we have the preemie and newborn baby hats and headwrap.

On the left is a preemie "teddy bear" hat $4.00 and the newborn "teddy bear" hat on the right $4.00.

In the back left is the 3-6 month snow cap $4.00, the newborn "teddy bear" hat $4.00 and the infant headwrap $4.00.

This is a super soft and beautiful baby blanket that is 3' x 3' in size.  Great for using on those outings to keep baby snug & warm.  We only have the one (working on a 2nd for the Christmas show).  It is $32.00.

Next up are a couple items for entertaining or just to use in any room of the house.

These "tool" caddies are so versatile!  They will easily hold 3 pint jars, a few books, paper plates, almost anything you can think of.

This one is painted with Dixie Belle's Drop Cloth, distressed and waxed with the best dang clear & brown waxes.  It is dressed up on both sides with vintage drawer knobs.  This would be a great way to have your silverware displayed at your Thanksgiving feast!

The "tool" caddy in drop cloth is $24.00.

The above "tool" caddy is a slightly different design, painted in Dixie Belle's Stormy Seas, distressed and waxed in the best dang clear & brown waxes.  It too can hold a variety of items and would be a addition to any buffet table.

The "tool" caddy in Stormy Seas is also $24.00.

The little coffee pillow pictured above hangs and I have 2 of them, $3.50 each.

The grateful pillow also hangs, I only have one, $3.50.

Just another idea of how to use the tool caddy in everyday life.

Two handmade cubical shelves - 12" squares & 3.5" deep.  They are $12.00 each, only have 2.

Just a few photos below of the set up for Saturday, hoping to encourage you to come on by!

Vintage window - $16.00 doesn't include crocheted garland.  Garland is $16.00.

We have a variety of pompom pumpkins $.50 each.

This vintage wooden pedestal dish is painted in DB's Sea Glass, distressed and sealed in their best dang clear wax.  It works great at a candy dish!  The only one we have and it is $12.00.

Another raised wooden tray painted in Dixie Belle's Coffee Bean, distressed and waxed in the best dang clear & brown waxes. It is made of maple and is a 12" square, the feet are painted with DB's drop cloth. It is $22.00.  These footed trays are also a great way to elevate a dish of food on a buffet table.

Another vintage window $16.00 not including the crocheted garland. The garland is $16.00.

There's only one of these shutter boxes left as one has been ordered!

This wooden plate is painted in DB's drop cloth, distressed and sealed in the clear & brown waxes also.  It would look great with a candle on it, a few bottle brush trees and fairy lights at Christmas.  It is the only one I have and is $10.00.

A couple different photos of the raised tray and the wooden plate.

Remember if you see something you'd like to be sure is yours on Saturday email Laura at lauraem@verizon.net to have it set aside.  See you this weekend!  Thanks for stopping by!

The above necklaces are made from vintage forks and are $5.00 each.  Also pictured are matchstick holders - great for lighting candles with burning your fingers!  The are made from vintage silverware also and are $5.00 each.

I love these boxes made from vintage shutters!!  I have 2 available for the fall show, each picture shows them in a slightly different way.  I explain below each picture what you're seeing and then at the end of all the pictures I explain the pricing.

The above below picture show the box fully decorated for a fall centerpiece.  The below picture shows a from the top view of the box.  It will come with all that is pictured for $45.00.

The next 4 pictures show that basic box with it's insert to make it easier to decorate for each season.  There are a couple pictures later on that show it with clay pots in it.  You would remove the insert to be able to use it as a planter.  If you only wanted the basic box & insert with no decorations it is $30.00

Front view & back view are the same

Top view with no insert inside

Top view showing the insert in it.  The 2 holes are for you fingers to make it easy to insert & remove the "platform".

This is what the platform/insert looks like - it is quite sturdy to be able support your decoration choice.

The next 2 pictures are of the base decorations & how easily you can take the shutter box from Fall to Christmas without having to change much.  On the platform is a piece of burlap layered on top of that is a pine garland and then a strand of battery operated fairy lights.  With the insert you can store you fall decorations underneath while it is decorated for Christmas!

Front & back views are the same

Top view of the base decorations ready to change over to Christmas.

Now decorated for Christmas with vintage ornaments & couple different winter sprigs tucked here & there.

Top view along with a little closer view of the top of the box below.

Here are 2 more ways to use the box - the one shows how I used my own shutter box for our daughter's graduation party filled with the clay pots & flowers.

Each box is 35" long 8" tall/deep and 7" wide. If you are going to use clay pots you will need a 5"-6.5" clay pot (not included).  Half gallon sized mason jars fit well inside the box to be able to fill with fresh cut flowers in the summer or a lovely fall floral display, plant some herbs in you pots - the possibilities are almost endless! 

 There in only 1 box available now 1 HAS SOLD.  There are different ways to purchase the one that is left.

1.  Box & Insert only for $30.00

2. Box, insert & fully decorated for fall - $45.00

3. Box, insert, fully decorated for fall & all the decorations shown to change it over for Christmas (9 vintage ornaments & some winter sprigs) for $52.00

I have a good bit more to add to the blog as time allows!  Hopefully you are enjoying so far what we are going to have at our open house on Sat, October 16th from 9-2 at 1215 Brinton Circle.  If you'd like to pre-order any of these items shown so far, email Laura at lauraem@verizon.net & I'll set it aside for you!
