***BELIEVE***

I'm so excited I just had to share with you all...

Today was the last day of my fifth month in my retail space.

I am tickled to tell you that I had my best month so far by a country mile : )

Having my friend Diane here to shop for treasures and then work in our garage/workshop for hours and hours certainly attributed to this great month. Some of our brainstorming lead to some really original and great new designs for our furniture pieces.

Things are literally "FLYING" out of the shop the last week. Today we brought in two of our end tables with the Time Work look and the owner of the shop scooped them right up under our noses (NOW, she did this right after we had nicely staged them in the space).

The growth of this venture has made me believe in the dream and want to reach for more and more.

Having all of you out there supporting me and leaving comments and following has inspired me.

Here's what the space looked like when we left today..


Here's a "before" of the cutest little table that we added to the collection...Just needed some TLC and a new look..




and here's a table we did in the oregano green with the burlap detail..




Don't you just love this leather satchel we found last week at an estate sale?

Speaking of sales....we are set for a full weekend of estate sales and yard sales starting early tomorrow morning....

Can't wait to show you what we find.

Sometimes you just have to "believe".
