Fall has arrived with snippets of crisper air and Kjersten and I are getting very excited about our official"Grand Opening Celebration" weekend.....the dates are October 24th and 25th. We will be hosting a "fall fair and flea market" outdoors on Saturday the 24th and inside you will find our latest vintage finds from our recent treasure seeking trek that took us from Florida to Maine and back. We have been saving up some special pieces for the Celebration. My favorite "new" antique piece might be the chimney cabinet that Cary brought in or the amazing organ topper that Blake and Kjersten found in Maine or the beautiful Seaman's Chest that found it's way here from New England many moons ago!There are so many ways that you could use any of these in your home, they are all so very versatile! We also can't wait for you to see all the adorable vintage aprons that just arrived, including some Holiday charmers that any "farm girl" would love to tie on over her jeans or the "city chic" with her little black dress!! We have just unpacked some beautiful peices of vintage jewelry that would totally transform last years denim jacket! If vintage hats or clothing are your thing, be sure to check out some of the cutest pieces you will find in Eastern Hillsborough County. Our drygoods section is my absolute favorite, where there are yards of beautiful old fabrics,lace, ribbon, and hankies surrounded by jars of old buttons, threads, quilt squares and more!! If your favorite way to unwind and connect to the past is cooking up grandma's recipes, then I think you will surely find something in our "farmhouse pantry"area to make your kitchen perfectly charming! I could go on and on about our "found stuff" but I hope you will come out and see it all for yourself!! There will be sales throughout the store, and lots of "new and reproduction vintage" arrivals including a few pieces of Cody Foster's vintage holiday collection, blocks of Marseilles Soap from France, beautiful note cards by Kersten at Turn of the Centuries, the sweetest, itty bitty earrings from "pinupsquirrel" by Philadelphia Julie made from precious,vintage bits, and for those refurbishing projects that you have been wanting to get to, we offer Real Milk Paint products! Our Grand Opening Celebration will continue through Sunday with more sales and on both days we will have some delicious, homemade refreshments for all. We hope that you and your friends will take a drive out to see our great, new store. We are located in an amazing old historical building, circa 1926 located at 8102 South Hwy 39! Kjersten and I look forward to seeing you soon! Ginger (purveyor of salvaged goods from the past)
