Brand new merchandise just in today

Darling little ironing board and Iron, and the children's tea set (looks like Fiesta tableware).

Oak side board. It's not too big, just right for our smaller dining rooms. Also would be great in an entry or just about any other room in your house.

I did some re-arrangeing in the store over the last few days. I get started and things get tore up for a day or two, but finially come together. Thought you'd like to see a few pictures.

We call these photo's instant ancestors. Even if you don't know who they are it's fun to think about who they were and what their lifes were like. I can't resist them. I hate to think of any old photo's ending up in the trash, and sadly so many of them do. We have several in the shop right now, why not come in and pick one out and give them a spot in your home. Somewhere you can see them so you can sit and wonder about them as I do.
