A NEW CHAPTER

2012 was a busy year holding many changes for me.  One of those changes was my decision (with a little help) to close my shop.  My landlord decided that he wanted his building back (ain't that just precious?).  So, I had to find another location and move my business AGAIN, or CLOSE.  Things seemed to just fall into place.  The owner of a local antique mall asked me just a few days earlier if I might like to take a booth.  And, then there was a new shop opening soon in the same area.  So, I decided I'd take a booth in both shops, leave the business end of things to them, and maybe I'd have more time to paint and go antiquin'.  Guess what?  I'm lovin' it.
 
These pictures are from the booth at the new shop, Waterloo Merchantile, on the Downtown Square in Larenceburg, TN.

 Let me know what you think.  And, wish me luck in this new chapter of my PICKIN' and PAINTIN' journey.

  9. Candy, my hubby and I used to have a shop such as yours, with handmade items and refurbished things that we found. It was a good feeling when something sold and we didn't have to handle the money or pay the bills, just had to replace it. That was a few years ago but we had a great time..Sounds like a good time ahead for you..Happy Thursday..Judy
