Greetings!, It’s been a very busy week, at the Treasured Home! Patti designed another beautiful tree, filled with this year’s beautiful ornaments. Water colorist David Peterson will be by, this afternoon, to hang his wonderful art. I’ve got a special spot, for palm reader, Anna Esparza, to share your personality traits with you! No, she doesn’t predict the future, but it’s still fun. She told me that I like to be in charge. Of course, this came as a complete shock to me! The Reckless Blenders will be pouring their award winning wines. It looks like Mr. Wonderful has a…

If I had to pick my top five favorite things to do, girlfriend time is right there! Combine that with a road trip, to check out new (to me) antique spots and I’ve hit the jackpot! Both friends, Nancy and Donna know their antiques! We had a great time! Old Good Things, in L.A. Had some wonderful old salvaged pieces. I found some cool locker baskets , an ice crusher and a reproduction ” Eat ” sign! I could have gone completely crazy and brought this Theatre sign home. But my shop certainly isn’t big enough! Big Daddy’s in L.A.…

Hello again! Patti and I unpacked shipments of Christmas goodies, this week, for the shop and Jesuit High School’s Christmas Tree Lane, that we’re participating in! Oodles of pretty things! I looked around and knew something has to go! (I think I need to give up my search and seizure tactics for a while!) I haven’t parked my car in the garage for months and the back room is full! There’s no room for a tree, or the great gifts, I’d like to showcase, so I need your help! Here’s a great deal on a 4′ x 4′ lattice framed…

I opened The Treasured Home one year ago, this week! I love my customers and am so appreciative of your support! The chalk style paint has been such a huge part of my business. Yet, it’s been harder than I thought it would be, to find a company that would be a good fit for me and my customers. I think that I have finally hit gold! Amy Howard is a very talented interior designer, from Nashville, Tennessee, who has rolled out an extensive furniture refinishing product line, this past year. I’m sitting at the airport, after spending the last…

Hello again! With our daughter in college, in New York, we have the perfect opportunity to enjoy the big city, while here. We never arrive with any advance plans. Typically, I’ll see a play or two, but I’m just as happy walking through different neighborhoods, taking in the sights, as they come.
