Still Here~~~~~

~~~~~~~~

I am still here...this is just the busiest time of year!!

I truly know how Santa must feel...

I just finished crows and witches and I leave tomorrow

for Lancaster, Ohio for

American Traditions Antique and Folk Show

"A Patriotic Christmas"

What...

Well here are some shots of the last show

~Finally~

A fun fall Door Greeter

Halloween Gatherings

And my friends...

Here are 2 of them anyway...

Linda on the left and Anita on the right.

Some of you may recognize Anita from the shop...

she runs the shop for me while I am away at shows.

THANK YOU GIRLFRIEND!!!

And just some of their wares...

So...I get home from the shop today and this is what I found..

I thought someone had sent a gift...

come to find out Mr Millstone had been at it again.

This is HIS Santa...hand drawn out and 100% hand stitched.

He made this using an old feedsack...

I have been with him for 14 years and he NEVER ceases to 

amaze me.

Have a Blessed evening.

I will be out of touch for a few days as we leave in the am...

SHOP IS CLOSED SATURDAY  

Robin

Mark Your Calendar........

~~~~~~~~~~

We would love to have you...

Hope you can attend.

Call me olde fashioned...but there will be

NO Christmas

in the shop until the open house.

Don't you remember when you were little the excitement there was in going shopping the day after Thanksgiving...today we call this Black Friday...but there

WAS a day when it was just a fun family shopping day.....

waiting patiently to see the new toys...making your Santa list

and at the end of the day there was always hot chocolate with

peppermint...my Mother was the Queen of hot chocolate,

shopping and decorating...guess I got it honestly.

O.K. enough of this....

Millstone will be CLOSED on
