Happy Thursday .....

Working at the store today rearranging items which happens quite often as I like change !!!!

Great gift idea quilts are $75.00 each....

I have been trying to get my head wrapped around the blog as to which way to go on postings.. Then I thought just start typing and let it go with the flow.
Here goes....
Not sure how I have ended up here at this place in my life ,wanting to bring items back to life and find a purpose for them again  .. go figure I guess you can't predict life !
I love having the store and all that goes with it. What really gets me going is when I find a gem in the rough and see it for what it can be or exploring a barn for items that haven't see the light of day in ages.
Hopefully this will turn out to be an awesome ride.......

Seasons....

Last days of August seems to bring anticipation for the upcoming Fall Season....

Always my favorite time of year here is a shot of a past Fall of Keuka Lake in Hammondsport..

Hope it inspires you..

Furniture

Furniture is a necessity... Such as a table its a place to eat and spend time with family, or a cabinet to keep treasures safe, maybe throw in a bed with soft comfy blankets to snuggle in.
Why talk about furniture ?
Next time you look at older furniture look at the quality of its craftsmanship and how it was most likely handmade with a pride in workmanship. Sadly that art is far and few between but thanks to antique and vintage shops its still an option...So when you look for furniture give older pieces a chance you will be pleasantly surprised!!!

Chaos

Craft show this weekend..... The village of Hammondsport becomes a mass of people all over the place.We could not be more grateful for them and the weather......
Although whens its all done we are grateful to be able to put our feet up  ....
