Scarecrows & Mums

Scarecrows & Mums... just two of the reasons why Fall decorating is so fun! The mums are finally completely blooming and are at their peak. I love this painted scarecrow. I've got mine dressed in overalls and a flannel shirt with a red bandana. He was fatter before, but all his stuffing has settled, so now he's "bottom-heavy". Sounds like he could be related to me! I have sold all but one of these scarecrows, so come get the last one and give him a home.

Grungy Tapers

Just got these great primitive grungy tapers in five different scents. They smell so good! I have some of them at the counter, but smelling them is making me hungry so I may have to move them. They've been selling pretty well, so I think I'll order more in other colors and scents.

Happy Labor Day

This has been such a quiet weekend. I think everyone is at the beach but me. I did get some new items in though, and just wanted to show them off. I found a great old shutter and an old gate, both with a hand painted rooster on them. I love them! I also got a couple large birdhouses made from old salvaged wood. The last picture is of some hanging birdhouses in really cute colors that are made from old sap buckets and salvage tin.

Fall Decor

Even though the weather is still so hot (it's beyond hot!) the Fall decor has actually been selling pretty well. I guess a lot of people really do think ahead into the next season (not me). I've even started putting some of the Christmas stuff I've started receiving out and have sold some of it! I thought I should snap a few pictures before it is any more picked over, so here they are.

A New Project

Here is a cabinet that I recently bought at an auction for $10! It looks pretty rough... the paint is about as "chippy" as can get. If you just brush against it, the paint falls right off so I need to do something to it soon. There is no back on the cabinet, but other than that it is structurally in good shape...very sturdy. A good buy, I think. Now, what color to paint it?

Not ready for Fall

Here's a picture of what my shop looks like right now. Boxes everywhere! Not exactly the image I'm going for. With only five days before I leave for vacation, I already have too much to do, and now I've got boxes arriving faster than I can open them. And with no storage space, this really creates a problem! Since all of the stuff arriving is for Fall, I don't even want to put it out. I know that all the big box stores already have their Fall and Halloween decor out, but I just don't think anybody wants to look at it when it's 90 degrees outside. I sure don't! Guess I will haul it home to the garage.
