Remember me?

Hello Friends!
So much time has gone by since I posted last.
Almost a MONTH.
Shame. On. Me.
I hope you still remember me.
There have been a few glitches that have come and gone this past month.
One being my computer.
ZERO memory left. Yep my ole Dell finally decided she wanted to retire. I got it back  what seems like 100 years ago so it was time to step it up in the technology dept.
For those who really know me know that I don't do well with this stuff.
I LOVE it all......I just don't ever know how to use anything.
I am happy to report that I AM typing this post on my new Toshiba laptop XPG500000STP (or something close to that).
Just this fact alone is a major deal for me!
We've got wifi and everything!!!
Again....MAJOR!
The only thing that I have to figure out how to do is upload photos now.
Once I get that figured out I'll be able to get back on track with regular posts!

Tis the season to get the shop ready for the holidays , so I have been up to my earlobes in greenery, lights, trees....you name it! It's beginning to look alot like Christmas at the shop!

Christmas Tyme at the Marketplace shop photos!

Hello Friends!

It's so hard to believe that another Candle Light Night has come and gone!

It Was AMAZING!

Every year as all the smiling faces wait to come inside, I get choked up.

It fills my heart with pure joy and just to see everyone revel in the Christmas Spirit makes me

so happy to be able to do what I do.

I have some random photos to share with you. Please bear with me as my camera decided to have a temper tantrum that night for what ever reason~ but I was bound and determined to get some shots.

Enjoy!

This is the vignette that welcomed you at the back entrance of the shop.
At the end of the night, I would have loved to be able to just flop down on that old metal and say.......ahhhhhh........!

Yes....that is a 6 foot rag tree that took us F.O.R.E.V.E.R to get done. My girl Kimmie doesn't ever want to see one again! LOL! But it was sooo worth it .

This display is as soon as you come into the front entrance.

Just some chippy white yard angels under a flurry of snowflakes......

rag tree with bells.........

One of the things that customers look forward to the most at our Open House is the food. Husbands like to graze and linger........

Chippy metal card catalog.....

One of my FAVORITES.....an old red sleigh

Candle Light is not a one woman show. Not by a looooong shot!

I owe thanks and huge hugs to:

My hubby

Kimmie

Christmas at the Shop!

Finally got a gazillion pics uploaded tonight and thought that if I am going to share any of the shop at Christmas time with you I better get to it!

Enjoy browsing!

Double sided street sign...how appropriate for this time of year huh?

Apothecary was a recent find! I am loving this and plan on making room for it in my office after the holidays are over.

ho ho ho

Wanna to know something neat? This big old cupboard is actually Steven Spieburg's! It belongs to my landlords now but for those of you that don't know, the movie The Color Purple was filmed in Marshville (where my shop is located). My shop was actually the General Store in the movie! If you were to go watch the movie right now, you would see my shop~ the front porch~ everything! Oprah has been in my shop! Sure wish I had had it back then!! Sure wish she'd come back! Anyway back to the cupboard....Steven had two of these built as props for the movie and only one survived. It's a love/ hate relationship with the thing. It holds a TON, it weighs a TON, I can't ever move it and nothing ever sold from the bottom shelves. I just added the burlap a few weeks ago and I am loving it right now. However, there are those days I would love to call Spielburg and ask him to come pick it up!

words to live by!

NEW beeswax candles just arrived!

One of the most popular displays this year! Nothing moves on this old bike except the kickstand...kind of!

old sled never looked so good!

Gi~gundeous birdhouse

Perfect wreath to display all winter long

old little red and white sled

Canisters to store all kinds of cookies!

Hope you enjoyed your tour.

May you all be blessed with

Wynter Tyme Blessings! :0)
