I hope you love this new class as much as I do! In a recent survey, you told us you wanted a sign making class. You also said, you’d like a Friday night class. Guess what? It’s here! I think this sign would make a wonderful holiday, wedding, anniversary, or house-warming gift! Don’t you? Robin, one of our vendors and a true craft-aholic, is a master of the Silhouette Cameo stenciling system. Diane, who’s had the pleasure of making our stencils, in the past, has learned boatloads from Robin, about this machine. Robin was in the shop Saturday, creating one…
Two Days to Celebrate the Season and Save! Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 5th & 6th! Jingle and Mingle! HELLO, GOOD PEOPLE, It’s been a while, since we’ve talked. We have a lot of catching up to do! Like it or not, Christmas, Hanukkah, or which ever holiday you celebrate, will be here in just about six weeks. Oh my! So, my dear lovelies, what’s it going to be? Are you going to leisurely shop, with a glass of wine in your hand, in a celebratory mood, choosing unusual gifts you know your family and friends will love? Or, will you…
This Saturday, we’ll host our first Image Transfer class, using Amy Howard’s Copy Cat. What I like about this product, is that you can use it with both ink jet and laser jet prints. In the past, other products have required laser prints. Since I don’t have a laser printer at the shop, this caused me to go else where, in search of a laser printer. Bummer. It’s really a lot of fun! You can use the product on fabric, wood or canvases, as we’ll do on Saturday. Students will create three transferred image canvases that they’ll be able to…
Our friends atGood Day Sacramento, Ch. 31, are joining us this Sunday, as we show you how easy it is to paint out-dated brass chandeliers and to help us celebrate our Harvest Party!

Greetings!, I think my body has finally recovered from my quickie trip to France. I slept nearly 11 hours last night and hopefully that did the trick. The old girl doesn’t bounce back, like she used to! _____________________ Great News!

Greetings, friends, As you may know, I love traveling around Europe and seeing the world. Mr. Wonderful doesn’t share this interest, so for the last ten years, I’ve been traveling with small groups of like-minded women, every couple of years. This time, I decided to travel with a guide, Jennette, who would show me the flea markets of France. Since the Paris markets are rather pricey, we opted for traveling around central France, in Montmorrillon. While shopping and shipping furniture home is very expensive, I’m not going that route. At least not yet! Believe me, I was very tempted! This…

Last September, our first vendors moved into the shop. It was a good move! We now have six lovely creatives on board and their unique perspectives add more interest to the shop. Since the Tahoe Fixer is almost fixed, I thought it would be a great place for a get-away. I think it’s safe to say we all had a great time! After lunch at Sunnyside, we arrived at the house and unpacked. Everyone got their room assignments and a tour. It was fun to show off all the vintage pieces that had either been painted, or for sale at the shop. Both Jill…
Lots of changes are going on at The Vintage Market! First of all, is that our name is slowly transitioning from The Treasured Home, to The Vintage Market. Same ownership, but we think that The Vintage Market speaks to who we are, best.

This month’s theme is Garden Party! Join us this coming Saturday, Aug. 16th, starting at 10 a.m.! You’ll find: New inventory Raffle Prizes 20% Off most furniture DIY Product demo’s Mr. Wonderful…
