The Story of my sign


I had the shop opened without any sign for a month or so, not know exactly what I was going to do. Then I remembered a friend of mine that did wonderful creations revamping old pieces of furniture, etc. She also does some one-of-a-kind cards by painting and adding her own special touches. I said to myself " I wonder if I could get my friend Glee to paint a sign for me?". So one day I packed up an old sign that I had purchased earlier and stopped at her house to see what she said. She gladly accepted my offer. I showed her my design that I had picked out and she did it all by hand for me. If you look close enough among the forget-me-nots you will see her signature. I picked the forget-me-nots because they are so pretty and delicate and recently my mom passed away so everytime I see the sign I think of her. She was able to come and see my shop before she died. I was thankful for that.

The artist name is Glee Bilderback from Galena, Illinois. THANK YOU GLEE!!!!

Fun Girls


Last weekend I had some fun girls from Chicago in my shop trying on the vintage clothing and hats. They were kind enough to model some for my ad in the Galenian. Tara is on the left and Alison on the right. Don't they look great in the clothes? THANK YOU SO MUCH for modeling!!!
