9 New Fusion Mineral Paint Colors! Greetings, friend! Today, a charming UPS driver, will deliver nine new Fusion paint colors and I’m really excited! Frankly, the last color release was pretty “ho-hum”, but these colors, at least on the computer monitor, look pretty darn gorgeous! I have just the piece to use one of these luscious colors on! A few weeks ago, Heidi sent me an email, about a dresser she had to let go of. It’s a beauty, from the 50’s, built by an Indiana furniture company, that used to be one of the largest furniture manufacturers in the country!…

Texas time! I’ll be missing in action this weekend, at the shop. Four of my dear Texas girlfriends will be visiting, for an annual long weekend at Lake Tahoe. We head up early Thursday and I know we’ll have lots of laughter, good food and story telling! It’s the last week of our Summer Sale …And to celebrate, we’re giving away one of our new house-made soy candles…a $21.00 value, when you spend $150, after your 20% sale discount! Don’t forgets that our furniture is 20% off, too! And it’s never too early to buy birthday or holiday gifts. Let’s…

Hello, gorgeous! I hope you’re doing splendidly! At one point, I considered continuing our sale until gas was selling under $6 a gallon, here in the Golden State. Then, I decided that a month long sale was longer than usual, so here we are! But, the good news is that our sale will continue through next week, Sunday, July 17th! Gladys and I came to work, dressed alike today! We both love these red slacks, from Slimsation. Talk about comfy! We have all sizes in stock, except size 8. Who doesn’t need a pair of red pants, I ask!? Darlene’s…

Hello, darling! Yes, it’s true! Our Summer Sale continues! This morning, before the shop opened, I loaded another rack of clothing to our Half-Off Sale! Just about everything else is 20% Off! It’s truly a win-win for both of us. We get to reduce our inventory and you get some great deals! In other news… We got to spend a couple of days up at Tahoe. One high light was getting my 72 year old sister to go tubing! It was her first tubing experience and probably her last! You never know! Back at the shop… We’ve been busy!…

It’s time for a great sale! These are challenging times. Many budgets are saving up for gas and necessities, instead of new bobbles. It’s hitting individuals like you and me, as well as businesses, large and small. Because of it all, we are overstocked and need to find a new home, for lots of inventory! So, here’s the deal. Everything, is at least 20% off, (except for Brighton and Uno de 50, who ask us not to reduce the price of their product). Discounts will be given at the register. Example: $68.00 Democracy Jeans will now be $54.40! Maybe…

Back in stock……

What I did during my summer vacation Covid quarantine! Hello, friend!, Well, here I am, back in the saddle, after Bob and I recovered from Covid. I’m sure you were wondering, so let me tell you all about it! On second thought, let’s not! Just know about Paxlovid, should you test positive for Covid. If you catch it early enough (within five days of visible symptoms) you can get this prescription, which is supposed to shorten the duration and lessen the symptoms. Thanks to Linda, my shop sister, for telling us about this option. For me, the worst part, besides congestion, was…

How was your Memorial Day weekend? Mr. Wonderful and I had a relaxing few days at the lake. It was colder and windier than I had hoped, so kayaking wasn’t an option. But we did the second best thing and visited a number of garage sales in the neighborhood! Of course there were the unfortunate drive-by’s, that didn’t warrant a stop. But there were a couple that were worth a visit. Nice people, too! You may see a couple of these treasures at the shop, should you stop by soon! This stop was probably my favorite! I found several goodies,…

I may be looking for a needle in a hay stack, but here goes! You know we have the worlds best team, at The Treasured Home! They keep the place humming along. Thank goodness! Since clothing has become so popular at the shop, we no longer have anyone with the time or passion to really give our workshop the love and attention it deserves. And frankly, after almost ten years, I’m looking to lighten my load. So here are the qualities my dream angel should possess: – Team player. We have a cohesive team, that has two goals.…
