It’s one of my favorite childhood memories, of when my very strict father would soften his edges, if just for a day. What are your best memories? ______________ This is just a quick note to remind you of our Christmas week hours. Tuesday and Wednesday: 11:30-4:30 Thursday: 10:30-3:00 __________________________________ We’ll be closed Christmas and through the following week.

Hello friends!, Were you able to attend our last classes, with guest instructor, Kathy, teaching how to create the Santa Tray? I was there both nights and was so impressed with her teaching style and upbeat attitude! It turns out that she’s going to be a regular, at the shop, starting in February! Years ago, she got her degree in art and has been a non-stop creative, all of her life! At this point, we aren’t sure if she’ll do classes once a week or once a month, but I imagine your interest will have a big say in the…

Hello once again! By now you’ve probably heard that Sacramento county’s ICU numbers are elevated and that some businesses will not be able to operate for at least the coming three weeks. Retail businesses, like The Treasured Home, will be able to operate, at a reduced 20% capacity. This new mandate goes into effect, at around midnight on Thursday, December 10th. We’ll have a chance to offer the last of two Santa board classes, Thursday evening. If you’ve signed up, I hope you’ll join us! ____________ I haven’t been able to determine how a business’ capacity is determined. Until I…

Hello there! True confession time. This picture of Micah has nothing to so with anything, but its always good for a smile. at least for me! The computer that has more current photos wasn’t nearby. What a sloth! If I had the right computer, I’d show you the incredible job I did, painting a vintage tea cart and an Empire night stand, in Fusion’s Coal Black! 🙄 It felt good to get a paint brush in my hand again, since it had been a while! Both pieces were donations from generous customers, who know I’ll give pieces they’ve lived with for…

Dear Friend, I know that this has been a very troubling year, for so many of us, for a multitude of reasons. I have a new practice that I’m working to instill into my daily life, hoping it becomes a habit. It’s something I’m thankful for. It’s so easy to listen to the negativity. There’s plenty to be heard. But does it really serve me? Us? I’m not suggesting to deny reality. I just find it easier to be kind to myself and those I encounter each day, when I look for the positive. I avoid the news, when possible…

Please welcome guest instructor, Kathy Pavloski! I met Kathy this year, pre-Covid, at the shop. After a few conversations, I learned that she teaches classes outside the area and she shared her work with me. Pretty wonderful! Ever since, I’ve been trying to get her to teach a class at The Treasured Home. Finally, today, we got a date and project on the calendar! Yes! I don’t know the process exactly. I just know it was inspired by some vintage paper placemats Kathy found at an estate sale. (You’ll be relieved to know that you don’t have to paint the…
