A couple of weeks ago I posted that I am now consigning some items to a new local shop -
Sweet Salvage Shoppe. In the first couple of weeks I had a few sales - and I took more items over on Saturday to create a larger display of my items.
One idea that I had, is Father's Day is coming up soon - so I took a selection of my
'manly' box pouches over and she was going to do a sign and gather a few other items to put with them.
She is also working on a more cohesive display of my items - I meant to stop by this afternoon to see what she's changed, but I forgot. So this is a picture from last week - several of my purses are on top of the stack of luggage.
I'm pretty excited about this venture - when I first started my business I rented space in a craft mall - it didn't work out very well, and that particular shop ended up closing not too long after I got out of it.
I was a little leary of going down this path again, but this is a local shop (about 3 miles from my house) and the owner is a person that I've known for a while, and consider a friend. So for her, and myself, here's hoping that business booms!
Along with my purses and accessories, I also have some pillows and window treatments that will be there.
And I'm thinking about Halloween and Christmas - maybe this year will be the one where I use up the stash of holiday fabric I've been accumulating!
Happy Sewing!

I've been writing the last couple of weeks about the new shop where I've consigned some of my items. I wanted to share the cute ad that was in the local paper.
