CABIN IN THE MALL

Well, here are a couple of pics of the cute little cabin in the CORNER NEST ANTIQUE MALL. We'll be heading over to Tenn. this week to take some more things. We have been well received 'cause people are buying our things. Thank You people!

Changes in the air! And it isn't the weather...

Well frenz...it's time for the old folks to make some serious changes...so, after having a 'brick & mortar' shop for a good part of the past twenty years, we are RETIRING OUR RETAIL SHOP!
We will continue to do our shows and Giles will continue to do custom orders as well as some wholesale. We will also have things in a wonderful antique mall in Elizabethton, Tennessee. You must go check this place out...can you believe our gatherings will be in a real log cabin...? Yep! Right up there on the second floor...(I'll post pics as soon as I put new batteries in this silly camera)Anyway...we're very excited about this change...so we may be closing our shop doors but we will continue to be active in selling and creating primitive country wares. Please continue to visit our blog to keep up with our comings & goings and also our show/event dates. Thank you for being our special friends...MANY BLESSINGS TO ALL!

THE GATHERING

What a nice way to finish up the 'show season'...THE GATHERING in Nashville, Tenn. was

a great show with lots of wonderful antiques and folk art...I met some of the nicest people, one of them being Pam from Beehind Thyme Garden & Wares. What a sweetie...and she's very talented. I sure grabbed some of her creations for myself.

This was our first time setting up at THE GATHERING and we were pleased enough to make plans to go back for the Spring show in March. Also, we were pleasantly surprised when right

before the show started Friday morning, we were awarded the LOOKING GOOD award for

the Best In Show booth. We were in good company with all the other great looking set-ups!

Only thing was..we had forgotten our camera...DUH! We did borrow a 'neighbor's' camera

to get a couple of shots...do you ever look at the end result of your hard work and it looks great, but when you look at a picture of the same display, it just doesn't look that great? That's me...

I'm still looking for the 'winner' picture : )

Perfect weather for napping...

Oh my! This cool weather is wonderful. Perfect for sleeping...just wish I was the one sleeping.

Callie Cat is sure taking advantage of nap-time.

Sunflower & Scarecrow

Mammoth Sunflowers

Can you spot Giles among these mammoth sunflowers? He's the one 6ft. tall... Can't wait to cut these giants and dry them.

GARDEN OF WEEDIN'

Farmer Giles has certainly outdone himself...I think our veggies and sunflowers are taking over!

Old prims and regrets...

Have you ever had something you sold, gave away, or whatever? We had a very simple, small, very primitive cupboard from Ashe County and we sold it at a show in Kentucky. I kept thinking that was the cutest little primitive I'd ever had...I was sorting through pictures of that show and WOW! There it was...so cute...so blue...so something...and it's gone. Probably sold at another show in another state...If I had it to do over again, I'd keep it...
