I'm excited and nervous to announce that I now have my own little store! There is a local craft and antique mall and as of April 1st I'm leasing a little place inside that I can call my own. It's fun but a little bit scary as well.
Before I signed the contracts I worried.....
...what if I can't find things to sell?
....what if no one wants to buy my stuff?
....what if it's a complete failure?
But then I thought, if I don't try, I'll never ever know.
Having an antique store is something I've dreamt of for a long time. And now I have a spot to try that dream on for size, to see if I can do it. Painting furniture is something I love to do but I'm running out of wall and floor space in my house! This gives me the opportunity to continue collecting and painting and to hopefully make a little money for my family in the process.
I took a few pictures so you can see what it is all about.....
It's fairly empty right now but I'm working on filling it up!
My daughters asked if they could take some pictures for me. Of course I said sure and handed them the camera. My younger daughter took this one.....
And my older daughter took this.....
Silly girl!
Some of my favorite things, milk glass, silver and lots of white and gray!
So that's my little announcement!
If you are a local reader, my store is in the Cottage Crafters Antique Mall, 4636 Broadway, Allentown, PA 18104.
My space is Q20.
