Let's Go Inside.....

Well....here we are...these are the first steps into the store......WOW....I asked permission right away to snap pic's...the little gal behind the counter was very gracious about it...so...."LET THE SNAPPING BEGIN"....this dress form sat so sweetly I almost expected it to twirl in a dance ......

These paper flowers were a hit with more folks then myself....other customers were fascinated at how they were done...a hint.....newspaper....glue.....putty....ribbon...with a good dose of creativity....they were floaty and fabulous....

Some of these displays speak for themselves....

OH BOY........I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS SLIPPER CHAIR......I SO WANTED TO TAKE IT HOME WITH US...

This wonderful file cabinet with 30's green paint was SO GREAT.....It is made out of wood....lined with maps that they glued to the bottom of each drawer...sorry that pic didn't turn out.....AND...each drawer was separate so you could keep all three together vertically or you could place them side by side.....FUN.....

I'm not sure you can see the "scale" of this adoreable little shopping cart ...it was childlike in stature....just as cute as could be...I had ideas for this little guy....filled with moss planted with johnny jump ups, or creeping Jenny....lined with plastic or a square galvanized tub filled with ice...and of course cans or bottles of water and soda.....in a laundry room filled with ....TIDE.....DOWNEY.....BIZ....AND BLEACH......so cute.....

Well girls.....that is it for today ....I have some more pic's to share another day.....full of a plethora of innovative ideas...I pray you all have a blessed day....stay cool......big hugs to all of you.......Karena
