It's Our Treat!
When our curtain is closed that's a good thing. Sure, you can't come in, but it means goodies are being brought in and arranged to be deliciously pretty for your ultimate arrival! Never ones to disappoint, we'd do anything to make you happy. Like give you a little sample to whet your whistle. An appetizer, if you will. Grab a little plate & napkin and let's go!
Can I serve you a little smidgen of this?
and just a slice of that?
Good thing you left room for these luscious layers:
and the candy-coated sweets.
And to top it off, something rich, yet light.
Oops, you've got a little something on your chin, there.
Still hungry? There's a huge buffet being laid out. A little something for everyone. And it all starts this Thursday, May 19th at 6 PM, with treats being offered through Sunday, May 22. Go HERE to see our hours and upcoming events!

Any Reason To Celebrate
Birthdays, holidays, we ROOMIES will use any excuse to have some fun! At the April sale we had a lot to celebrate!
Upon finding out it was a customer's birthday, we quickly stacked some pastries to make a mini cake and ambushed Laura (on the right) as the entire store joined in with a birthday song!
We also had lots of ladies showing up in their (Easter) Sunday best! These gals were still opening their eggs (some held $25.00 gift certificates inside!) when we just had to snap a picture of the hats upon their pretty heads.
They look good coming...
and going!
We will be declaring the winner who won a $75.00 shopping spree with their spring hat, in the May (May 19 -22) email announcement, so make sure you sign up HERE to see it!

I'm Telling Your Mom..............!
Well, we're telling our moms anyway, and hopefully YOU will tell yours too! What are we telling her? That we love her!
This is the month (sale starts tonight, April 14-17) when you'll find lots of things in the shop that will help say "I love you!" on Mother's Day (May 8th!).
What kind of child were you? Did you "pattern" your life with the truths she told?
Did you always remember to wear clean undies and carry a hanky?
Were you a tad rambunctious?
How will you honor that love?
Will you reminisce about both the good and the bad days?
Will you take her out to tea?
Will you make her Queen For A Day?
How about a new bag or new shoes (that no one can fill quite like her!)
What about some new baubles? We have both elegant and fun! Just like her.
However you spend the day, we hope you have the blessing of telling your mom "I love you."
And if you don't; we're telling!

Two By Two
It was raining (more than just dogs and cats--it was more like bobcats and St. Bernard's!) but we still, thankfully, had lots of customers who came into the shop (by ark) and bought almost all of our most popular sellers this month: dressers, water pitchers, bird cages, frames, linens of every sort and spring decor. We truly do love and appreciate our customers. Besides the fact that they braved the inclement weather to keep us busy doing what we love to do, they keep us smiling too.
Terri and daughter Charlotte found refuge from the downpour. It was a great mother/daughter outing to shop among the spring offerings.
Another happy pair: the lovely Leslie (with husband Len next to her it's hard to tell where all that hair ends and begins!) tried on some vintage sunglasses in hopes it might bring out the sun for a bit. And it must have worked because...
later that day, Jason and Diane came in and found the perfect coffee table and loaded it up in the trunk without a drop of water having spilled from the sky!
And helping us feel all warm and sunny inside on our last day of the sale were the always rosy Kathleen and daughter Mary, dressed in pink to help root on those spring days!
Thanks to ALL our customers who graced us with warm smiles and helped us make it through the storm. We hope to see you again in April (14 - 17th) when we'll have our sunny sides up!
