Halloween, Theater, and Magic Sale Part 2

From 5-6 all you can stuff in a box provided for only $3! The Salem, Oregon Craigslist will have an entry with all the details on Friday May 21. This will be an even bigger sale. Finally sorted through all the craft supplies. Stamps, paper, collage materials, altered art packets, paint, glitter, clay...and more. Boxes of Halloween, costumes, props, bones, and materials.

Catching up

Sorry for another long spell with no entries. We had another passing in the family. Number 3 in 5 months. She was my husbands aunt and we are trying to care for the elderly uncle. While going through paperwork I discovered letters between his aunt's mother and family in Iowa dated 1892-1924 so I took the time to scan 6 of the letters. This letter references her pending wedding in Chicago. The handwriting is lovely so I wanted to share it with my readers.

The shop is closed for a week...

so we can go to our happy place....the haunted mansion at Disneyland. Order shipments will resume on the 10th.

A bit of witchy cuteness to make up for my lack of content! We had our first moving sale with a Craigslist ad that read Halloween, Theater, and Magic! On a cold rainy January day we had a very fun crowd. One car full of folks drove for over an hour to our sale and went home with many treasures. Moving sale part 2 will most likely be in May. This one will have even more Halloween goodies so I'll try to give fair warning to locals. Later this month work on cleaning up the web site and clearance sales will begin.
