Getting ready for my first show!
Here's just a peek! Julie and I have many completed projects and dreamy furniture ready to go that you won't see unless you come on down!
Glen has been playing with lamps again!
Looks like chaos but we're actually organized!
WORTH THE DRIVE!
On a quiet lane just west of Redmond, hundreds of people gather at a modest little farm. What's the occasion you might ask yourself. Well, it's none other than the Junk Between Us Girls Spring Antique Market held at Cricket Song Farms. Over 20 vendors gather to display their wares, visit with their neighbor and just enjoy the wonderful country atmosphere. Here you will find wonderful treasures to warm your heart and home, from antique to eccentric, primitive to pretty, cottage to country, shabby chic to just plain ol' farm rusties. Enjoy a cup of our delightful hot apple cider, stroll the grounds and relax among the magic of the day. It all happens on APRIL 4TH FROM 10AM TO 4PM ~ 5735 SW OBSIDIAN AVE., REDMOND, OREGON. From Hwy 126 go south on Helmholtz about a quarter mile, turn west on Obsidian Ave. We are down about a mile on the right hand side. You can't miss us, just watch for the signs. So, if your plans include a visit to Central Oregon, we wish you safe travels over, God speed to your destination and should you get the chance, stop on by and let us know you came. You'll be pleasantly surprised!! Call the JBUGS for more information or directions. Lisa at 541-410-7815 or Peggy at 541-460-0357.

My savings has been depleted by love!
Here a few recent pieces I picked up to stage a vacant rental....
It's no secret I love Rustic, Primitive, Vintage and French furniture and things.
Therefore, I need to become more serious regarding regular income, as my monetary "cushion" has dwindled. This is due to repeated forays to thrift shops and barn and estate sales.
(My fascination with CraigsList is also not helping.)
I'm looking for work in Inside Sales and Customer Service so I can be an "Antique Dealer" on weekends.
If you know a business in need, please send them my resume:
