    YIKES!! I forgot to downsize it. Sorry.

    This is the store I own with my DH. People usually enter from this side, walk down to the serving counter at the end and walk out the other side.

    Hi Bethany! What a lovely store, looks like you have quite the variety of nice things to purchase.
    Do you spend a lot of time reading when things are slow?

    You look like a completely different person than the last picture. lol

    Your store looks so lovely. Tell me more about what items you sell. It looks so pretty and a place I'd love to shop at.

    Hi everyone! I am really loving your comments, keep them coming.

    Darlene, yep, I do read a far bit on slow days but I never read books or anything I have to concentrate on, usually it's magazines. Yesterday I did another padded coat hanger and I often knit squares for a blanket I'm donating to the Salvation Army. It gives me something to do so I'm not sitting there looking like a shag on a rock (<<- one of my mother's sayings).

    Sara, maybe the huge version of me shows a different me. I changed my glasses too, these are the ones I wear at the store because they go with all my clothes and they're very lightweight.
    We sell furniture, toys, handbags, flowers, organic toiletries like toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, lotions etc. linens, jewellery - venetian glass watches and beads, emu oil, little books like address books, journals, guests books, table lamps, prints, candles, kitchen utensils like salad servers etc, alpaca sweaters, vests and scarves, lots and lots of hand and bogy creams, cups, spice drawers and many other things I can't think of now. LOL.

    I would love to see a big group of my frugal girls walk through the door. and Carolyn, I'm definately up for a chat, anytime.

    Here are two another pix of the other side of the store.
