Another Finished Project ~Sold~

I'm tryin' to get as many projects finished around the shop and here's another one... Got this last month partially stripped (see it in a previous post) and wanted to keep the old white chippy paint... This has a new home on 3/15/10 and I couldn't be happier...

Big Anniversary Sale

I was plannin' this for 2 months, talkin' it up, givin' out the above cards and then it happened... I was moving out of storage and pulled a back muscle that laid me up for a week... missed the sale (and 4 days, thank you Dr. Bedo and your magic pills)... Anyway, I feel so bad I wasn't there for the above dates that I have the entire store on sale for the month of September... Come on by, some really cute things have just come in and we are dealin'...
