Big Sale This Friday and Saturday October 23 and 24

 Everyone is excited the Country Living Fair will be in town this weekend at Stone Mountain and we are adding to the fun by having a special sale for our friends and dealers who want to visit local shops after checking out Stone Mountain and those who can't make it to the show. I'd love to go but will be here in Old Town greeting those who drop in to say hello.

Our dealers are marking special items for sale and most of the booths will offer up to 20% off on antique items. Varies dealer to dealer and the booths will be clearly marked.  Lots of wonderful items at great prices the next two days.

The sale will make room for new treasures to come in for our annual Christmas Open House - so mark your calendar for November 20-21. More details later on Christmas.

Cheryl Alexander will be selling her altered couture at Stone Mountain but we still have some of her beautiful pieces and jewelry here in the shop!

Saturday Shopping

All the rain makes me want to curl up and dream of decorating the shop and home. Lots of lovelies to make any dreamer smile and a true decorator turn a room into a dream spot! Hoping to see a bit of dry weather - but don't let rain drops keep you from having a fun Saturday.  Still plenty of Garden items (you know how I love the garden!) along with sweet cottage pieces. Looking for something intriguing to wear? Cheryl Alexander's one of a kind vintage sweaters and sweat shirts are delightful with all their beautiful antique lace, plus we have a charming selection from other dealers of vintage clothing and jewelry.
