Cheer...and dreams...











We are all trying this new thing called 'less is more' for Christmas. Worldwide we need to structure our lives into this new millennium with this mindset, what impact will my purchases have on my personal footprint in society today. All the wrapping paper that fills the landfills this time of year, boxes and Styrofoam, too much packaging for one single item. I guess that's where us crazies in the antique trade pride ourselves...we ARE the original recyclers. Scavenging and bartering to accumulate the product of our trade, we merrily roam hill and dale (and dumpster) to find treasures of bygone eras to fill your homes with the luxury and pride of history.
As travel becomes more of a dream than a reality, with the unsure nature of gas prices, we don't luxuriate into grand vacations anymore, we skip from antique show to antique show, auction to auction, fulfilling a dream and a niche in our lives and the lives of others, you our customers (in crime) for that eclectic piece that puts the perfect glow to our lives and homes and our ancestry.
Come to the story of the past...and whip into your favorite antique shop, your car knows the way...and we'll be waiting to please...Happy Holidays!
