Seventh annual holiday Craftacular & gallery walk this Saturday!!!

This Saturday is the Seventh annual holiday Craftacular in Madison! I am sooo excited!! I love this show! :) Come & see me as well as over 50 vendors from all over!



& this Saturday is my very last gallery walk open as a shop! I just realized this the other day or I would have planned something big!
My shop will be open as my husband will be working the shop (while I am at the Craftacular)...please be patient as he is new to running the shop & doing me a huge favor! ;)
I am hoping to be back from Madison by 7pm so until then he will have the shop open 6-9pm. I will have cookies & snacks to celebrate the holidays!

My very last day of business at 219 Market st. Oshkosh will be Dec. 24th as I have to move out of my shop the next week! I will then be in my new space (downtown Appleton) early January with hopes to open mid January early February!

Thank you to everyone who came out & shopped this past weekend.. man was it busy! :) Yay! p.s. Karin Reeves was the winner of my black Friday giveaway. I sent you an email Karin!

My shop is open 11-6 today! xo!

Small business Saturday!

Today is small business Saturday! Please shop local & support your locally owned businesses! I don't think anyone is really happy with the economy right now & one way to change that is to spend your money at Mom & Pop shops! We are tax payers, We have kids in our schools, we own homes & most of all we spend the money we make in our community, all of those things make our economy grow!



Locally owned businesses don't have corporate offices to deal with, we are it, we go out of our way to give you excellent customer service & most of the time we know your name & want to build a relationship.. not just take your money!
I know I feel sooo lucky to have a growing business in a tough economy! I am sooo thankful for all of my customers wether you have been in my shop 100 times or just once! :)

Thank you all for supporting small businesses like mine! My shop is open 10-3 today!! Have a great day! xo!
