Hello, friend! What a week it has been!  To say we’ve had a few distractions is an understatement. I’m happy that I can slip into the make-believe world at The Treasured Home, where all of the distractions are harmless.  I wish everyone could! Not only do I have plenty of distractions, I rarely live in…

Good Morning Gorgeous! Have we got a deal for you! Through August and while supplies last, all summer clothes, scarves, straw hats and purses are 40% OFF! For example, the dress Patti’s wearing, was $42.95.  Now, just $25.77! We have lots of fall arrivals here or on their way and we need to make room!…

Whew! I have lots to report on.  I sort of feel like Lois Lane! First of all, we enjoyed our annual shop retreat.  The time went way too fast!  We were sadly missing shop sisters, Susan and Linda.  Last minute things come up, when you’re trying to find a good time for 7 women to…

Hello again!, Before I share my brilliant painting tip, I wanted to remind you that we’ll be closed, this Sunday, the 4th of July.  In the mean time, we’re sporting our red, white and blue! Now, on to achieving a super smooth surface, when painting… I was thrilled, when thrifting recently and scoring this gorgeous…

Hello darling! I hope you haven’t turned into “jerky” during this terrible heat wave!  We took Micah for his evening stroll and it was beautifully cool!  Just perfect! Everyone had fun at last Saturday’s vintage window class.  You all just love this class and I need to find more windows.  It’s as simple as that!…

Hello, gorgeous! I’m writing this, on our way to the Reno airport, to pick up our new daughter-in-law, Nina. She’s made the very long flight across the country, to spend some family time with us, at Lake Tahoe.  (No, I’m not driving! Haha!) My son stayed behind, to attend a best friend’s bachelor party. Then,…

Hello Gorgeous! How’s your week going?  Really well, I hope! I’m at that place, where I’m sure I’d get ‘rear-ended’ if I happened to come to an abrupt stop.  Know the feeling? Uh-huh! Thought so! Tregae and I welcomed our latest Shop Sister to the gang today.  Patti has graciously agreed to tackle our behind-the-scenes…

Hello, gorgeous! Looking back at the last week makes me think I should have amended my “mother/son/daughter contract” long ago!  I should have made it abundantly clear that neither of them could move more than thirty miles from home! What was I thinking?  Or, not thinking! These two little love birds, Andrew and Nina, are…

Hello Gorgeous! I’m hoping your week is going smoothly!  I can’t complain.  I just wish  last week’s orders at market would show up immediately!  Patience never has been easy for me! In the mean time, I’ve spent some time this week, working to remove all things  winter, from the boutique. While not completely finished, it’s progress,…
