SUNDAY IN THE VILLAGE...

Good Sunday evening Prim Pals! Dick and I worked at the shop today and it was SOOO chilly. What the heck happened to spring? All of our tulips out front finally opened and they look so pretty. Won't be long until there will be REAL flowers in our window box.
Check out our tulips! I'm thinking of planting lots of sunflowers in this little garden for the summer.
I never get tired of looking at the back wall of our shop. It's my favorite part, feels so cozy back there. Some days I could just curl up with a good country magazine or do some stitching by the "fireplace".
As most of you know, Zanie Janie's Simply Coffee is next door to us, but the great thing is - we have French doors inside that connect our two shops - without going outside! I'm so spoiled having that fresh roasted coffee just a few steps away.
Dick and I decided it would be fun to feature some of our other downtown "neighbors" on a regular basis. Holly is such a delightful village and there is so much to offer. One of the newer shops in town is A Simpler Time Antiques run by John Shoemaker.
John is a great addition to our village. He's always ready to step up and get involved in anything he can to help promote other businesses. He has even started a "group out" for any groups that come to town.
His shop features a great eclectic selection of antiques, jewelry, old "coke" items, candy, fudge, old time sodas and more, more, more. It's a fun shop to browse through and find something from your childhood - no matter how old you are! We're so glad he's here, be sure to stop in and say "hi" when you come to town. Well, tomorrow and Tuesday are going to be stay-at-home work days. Lots more goodies coming to the shop. Also, we hope to have another shipment from The Funky Tennessee Artist by Thursday or Friday. I can't wait! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Until next time...
