Another gloomy, wintry day in Iowa...
as I try to squeeze a shadow from under Santa.
Sister's Garden is the antique store that I
have been selling out of for 16 years...
Barb, the owner, and I have developed the best of
friendships, through the hard times and the good,
WE HEART JUNK!
Are ya green with envy TOT...
these old tractor lugs are just screaming
INDUSTRIAL!!!
Vignettes are whassup at Sisters'...
Around every corner there's Iowa found gems...
and nothing goes to waste in our environment...
GOOD JUNK!!!
One day a week I take the 45 minute drive to 'Sisters',
as we all refer to it, truck loaded with goods and ready
to play with my toys and my friends, it's an
idealistic life and I'll think I'll do it till I drop...K...
New beginnings at Hey, Harriet today,
as we welcome our new SSS hosts...
let's go there huh...!

Such an array of goodies and Chrissy sparkles! Stunningly beautiful!
If it helps at all, our world is grey and windy today too! We saw a little sun yesterday for a few hours, but not today!
Don't forget to link your post to our new Shadow Shot Sunday 2! We'd love to see you there!
Big Chrissy hugs dear sister + one for Scratchy!
Hey Sharon, I always see such cool thngs in her shop from your pics. Happy Holidays, T
I wouldn't call it 'junk' - it is a treasure, the functionality of an old tractor and her parts is to be treasure. The link to more honest farms and no large agribusiness farms. The look of the past ought to be preserved so we can remember a far different time...The interior furnishings were made to a far higher standard back then - happily on the items made of wood, steel wool, sandpaper and a fresh coat of paint means a life extended. Cool Iowa, shadows or not!
Sharon girl I wish I could visit your store in person I know I would be there for hours having a great time looking at everything .. you would have loved the Belgium markets we went to .. my jaw dropped every time !LOL
Hey if I don't "see" you before Christmas have a great one girl !!
Joy : )
Good to see you here-I thought you said last week you were going to go on hiatus. Lucky for me you didn't! I am green with envy over all that good junk. Just know that if I were in driving distance, I'd be a regular at Sister's!
LOVE your photos!!!
Soaps are selling like crazy!!!
Keep em coming!...barb
hey wild thing!!! great shots as always!! yup that junking thing is in your blood...you are a life-er!! just a dusting of snow on the ground...not sure we will have a white Christmas or not. the snow is not what makes it Christmas. hope you have a great week ahead!!!
I just wish I lived near enough to visit!!
I love junk! I have no more room for anything, but I love what I do have, even though some is in storage! Sisters looks like a spot I could wander around in for an afternoon. The skies here are blue today, and the temps warm. No snow. This may be the first Christmas in years that isn't white. But I'm holding out hope for a miracle. Happy week to you Sharon!
I really like your angle on things . . .
Fantastic shop!! I really love those candle sticks...Great place to get lost in for the afternoon!!
Merry Christmas!!
:)
I just love these photos, I would be able to spend hours looking around the shop. So much great stuff.. I am envious!!
Hi Sharon,
This morning, I decide to find your blog and see what's new!!! The last time I read, you had a poem about turning 50 and something different in your sidebar area.
Nice Shadow Shot of Santa.
I would love to live closer and browse or buy some of the antiques. I live in the Northeast. Our Christmas here will be sunny and cold, but without snow.
I have done just a couple Shadow Shot Sunday posts.
