HALLOWEEN TEASE...

Happy Friday everyone! What a week this has been! First moving the shop all around, redoing the front windows and then marking tons of merchandise down for our sale tomorrow! I'll be glad when it's over and I'm doing the sunshine dance (just for tomorrow). Thought you might like to sneek a little peek at a few of the Halloween dolls that will be out for our fall preview/p.j. party night.
A couple of Terri's creations. Can't wait to put them all out! Won't be long now.
I have boxes and boxes of great Halloween goodies - and then on to the markets in August!
Have you ever seen such a beautiful kerosene lamp holder? It is big (and very ornate)! $94.95
And look at this yo-yo quilt. All made from material from the 30's and 40's. Wish it were my colors! It is just gorgeous. I always think about the woman that must have taken the time to make something like this! Holy cow! $89.95
There are sure going to be bargains in Holly this weekend! I went through the whole store and slashed prices like crazy. I really want a clean slate to start over for fall.
This post is a short one. I'm heading up to the nursing home to visit my dad and I hope to beat the storm that looks near. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Talk to you soon.
Until next time...

  1. Hi Dawn,
    Love peeking at your Halloween dolls...just too cute!!! and oh so primitive!!!
    It's looking like we might come up your way for a couple of days in August, but I think it will most likely be towards the end of the month. So you might be coming down to Waynesville before I make it up to MI.
    Hope you had a great visit with your dad and that you beat the storm. Have a great weekend and I'm sure that I'll be chatting with you again soon.
    hugs, Cindy

  2. What a big teaser you are. I love to decorate for fall and Halloween and I'll be starting the end of August. I love everything about fall ~ the crisp cool mornings, the leaves, the colors, all of it.
    I hope you had a great visit with your dad and have a great weekend.
    hugs,
    Pam

  4. Fall will be here before we know it. It looks like you have a good start! I haven't started on any Fall yet! Ikes! I did do some ordering last winter of some Fall things that were on sale. Where do you go to market? I haven't been to any in a while. I used to go to KC because it was close, but it hasn't been very good. Good luck with your sale. I'm doing the same thing next week at our shop!
