Hello, gorgeous!

I hope this note finds you in good spirits. I just listened to a podcast, called First 15, about fighting negativity in our lives and measuring our words before we speak them. A good listen.

We returned from the lake yesterday evening.  We visited with old friends and got some much needed painting done on the house.

I finally got myself into the kayak, for the first time this summer and loved every minute.  What took me so long?!

Last week open, before summer vacation, brings a sale!

Since packing up seasonal inventory is not my idea of a good time, I’m putting all the summer tops on sale at 40% off!

But wait, there’s more!

I have lots of new jewelry on order, so I’m putting select pieces of jewelry on sale, at 50% off! For whatever reason, these pieces haven’t sold as I’d hoped and I need to make room for more. Be sure to take a look!

I took a leap of faith, bringing in the Ranger Station candle line, from Tennessee.  These double wick soy candles probably have a stronger masculine appeal, but I love the fragrances and the packaging, with little boxes of matches inside.  Even so, they aren’t selling, as I had hoped, so I have them on sale, at $10 off or $29.00.

We’ll have the house put back together by this weekend, after our water leak. Some molding had to be removed in a couple small areas, to allow for complete drying. It could have been worse!
While I rarely rearrange furniture, I was able to mix up my accessories, when putting things back. It’s fun to change things up a bit I found and you might try it too, on a hot summer day, when you decide to stay indoors.

Shop hours this week, before closing the month of August…

Friday, 11-1

Saturday, 10-2

If you didn’t hear, I’m converting to a monthly Pop Up, the second 3-day weekend, each month. I’m looking forward to making each Pop Up seasonal and “fresh”…and to have more time with family, in between. Thank you for taking this ride with me! I couldn’t do it without your generous support!

XO,

Barbara
