Tour of Home St Marys

Last weekend was the Downtown St Marys Tour of Homes and we were lucky enough to be asked to be on it so I wanted to share some pics we took that night of what went down in the way of Christmas decorating. Our shop is run out of our home which is a Historic Home Downtown called the Rudulph House (Christmas Appropriate Huh?). It was built around 1876 per the plaque but I really think it's probably earlier and around The Civil War Era from some history we've dug up.

This was the last official event this month so I'm happy to have it over and have been so successful!
There were around 200 people that came thru our home and shop which was wonderful.

My little Goat Wagon with a Christmas Vignette of vintage frames and mercury trees~

If you look close b/w the windows there's a glittered stag head...he may stay up all yr!

Blessed Mother Vignette by the Front Windows~








Sorry they turned out so grainy! I think the overload of Christmas lights that were on didn't help!
Such a great night and lots of Goodies in the Store!

Christmas at the Shop

Hands down the busiest time of year...ever! We have had 2 Open Houses and 2 Shows already in the past couple of weeks on top of getting ready for St Mary's Downtown Tour of Homes which is this Saturday (Dec 8th).  The shop is looking pretty Merry though and I wanted to share some pics for the loyal followers (who still hang in there as MIA as I have been!)
We have a thing for Glittered Nutcrackers and Santas this year...half of them are named "Sugar Britches"~

Alot of Mercury and Champagne Colors-~








I'm going to hate when Christmas is over and all this wonderfull fat mercury glitter is gone!





Isn't this so sweet?? Little Bird in a Christmas Vignette. We are prepping for the Tour of Homes this Sat as well as the first Mt Dora, FL Vintage Christmas Show so if you're in either area please stop in and say Hi!

Country Living Show at Stone Mountain

A couple weeks ago we were at The Country Living Fair in Stone Mountain and had a blast. It was such a fantastic show and the park was gorgeous~

This was probably one of my favorite shows because the booths were set up along the camp sites and I was slightly in love with how our booth turned out~

We started out with alot of mercury Christmas trees and pinks in the booth with some chippy white furniture~









This was taken as we were setting up the jewelry...isn't that feather vintage Mardi Gras mask amazing?


Such a great Show!

Texas Fun

I did manage to take quite a bit of pics while we were at Zapp Hall of the booths and the area to share. Needless to say I missed it as soon as we pulled out of the drive and can't wait to go back in April. If there's one thing I could say about this field it's that the people a rock...they are some of the kindest vendors and field owners you will ever meet so every day was like going to summer camp for adults!

Royers Cafe
So let's take a little tour of Antique Heaven on Hwy 237~


Her's the booth as we were setting up...full Halloween going on here~

It was piled full during setup!


I will never forget the dollhouse that weighed as much as a car....

Some of the other booths-




Her booth was fantastic!

This delightfullness was in Carolyn Westbrook's Booth~




I can't remember which field this was but it was one close to us at Zapp




This is my friend from Atlanta's booth...just wonderful!

And of course...we were 2  spaces over from....
