Lots of new black furniture

My dh and I just got back on Sunday afternoon from 4 days of buying for the store. We hit a few of our favorite furniture wholesalers first. I was able to pick up several pieces of black distressed pine furniture. It is amazing to me how popular black has become in country decor. It was always huge in modern decor. Now that it is distressed or antiqued it really looks great in every home. I was able to get 2 tall pie safes, and several small black cabinets in various styles. I also picked up cabinets with a tip out garbage can and drawer in 2 colors. I bought one of these for the store so I can take orders, as the last time I brought them in they were gone the 1st weekend.

I was busy last night putting new things out and making several new things, especially for the walls. When I came home Sunday and went to the store, I noticed how many wreaths were gone off the walls from the weekend. I promise by Fri at 10:00 the shop will be full again. Many thanks to my friend who watched the store for me Fri and Sat(Sunday we were closed for Easter).

I found some great twig wreaths. Some are quite large and would look great over a fireplace or outside on a barn or front porch. I manged to find lots of new and stocked up on some things that had sold out. All in all it was a fun trip and we also had a little time to relax.

Now it's back to work and we look forward to seeing you in the shop this weekend.

This weekend we are selling all remaining Easter at 50% off(I don't have a lot but enough to make it worth the trip to look it over and pick up a bargain). All of our remaining oak furniture is 30% off. I really need the room for the pine distressed pieces.

Our hours on Fri are 10-6 Sat 10-4 & Sun 10-3.

What's new?

Thank you to everyone that attended our Spring Open House. I hope you enjoyed your gift bags. A few customers have already been back to use their $5.00 off coupon. This week I was lucky enough to get to one of my wholesalers to pickup some new things. I have also received an order that I had placed more than a month ago. I was able to get some of that out for this weekend. I am working on some new handmade crows.

We also have a new selection of earrings in spring colors, lots of pretty crystals and gems.

This weekend we are having 20% off all bunnies. I also bought a group of large twig stars which we will be selling for $10.00 each. They are great for both inside and out. Please stop by our shop at 263 Fairview Ave in Hudson NY. We are open Fri, Sat & Sun.
