More Photos From Northwind


Wow - where did last week go?  Between business and some family time, I haven't had a moment to post. Sadly, there hasn't been time to read recent posts from favorite bloggers, either.  There is some serious catchin' up to be done around here!  Here are some more photos from the show.

Another view of our booth

 

We enjoyed meeting Mindy from Vintage Nest
Her shop is in Glenview IL and I can't wait
to visit one day

   

The Chippy Shabby booth was wonderful...as always!

 

It was a fun show and we enjoyed seeing some of our regulars including Catherine, Jill & Chloe, Terry & family from Daddios Diner and Sue T.  
It was great to meet Lu from Sadie 'n Stella and our neighbor Jamie from Hollyhock Garden Antiques.
I'll apologize in advance as I'm sure I'm forgetting someone, but we sincerely appreciate all who stopped by.
 

I'll leave you with a few more photos of the grounds, and we'll see you at Elkhorn this weekend.

When the Stars Align - It's Divine!


Sometimes things just all come together.  While looking for some great finds for you I came across something in Door County, Wisconsin.  Most folks think of visiting Door County in the summer when all of the little shops are open and things are bustling.  Door County is great in any season, but one of my favorite times to go is in the winter. You can actually enjoy the beauty of the peninsula without fighting your way through a crowd.

While making plans to pick up my purchases this week, the seller referred me to the owner of a charming waterfront cottage.  It didn't take long to convince my dream guy that we should reserve the cottage and sneak away for a few days. We can't wait to snuggle in and enjoy the view.

To make things even better, last weekend a customer clued me in to a wonderful event taking place in Sturgeon Bay on Saturday and Sunday, Feb 6th and 7th.  Angie from Viva La Cabin is hosting "Vintage Nest" from 10-5 on Saturday and 10-3 on Sunday. You can get a sneak peek and more details on her blog.   It looks dreamy and I know where I'll be first thing on Saturday.  I'll let you know how it goes, and if you're anywhere nearby I encourage you to go.  It looks like a can't-miss fix for the winter blues.
