Hello friends, I left Germany in a very peaceful, contented state. Everywhere I went I was in awe, I had no expectations and Germany was absolutely incredible. I saw and experienced hundreds of separate magical moments, completely present for every second. Andy and his friends and family made this trip. We willingly accepted all the invitations...Read More

Hi Friends, I AM SO EXCITED! Not only am I going to Europe for the first time ever, but I am going with this handsome, witty and charming man who will be showing me his Germany. I know some of you are going to ask so I’ll tell you where: We’ll stay with his parents...Read More

Hi Friends, I just got home from one of the best trips to Texas ever! Just like I am and my style and my shop is ever evolving, so are these trips. Gone are the fun evenings with friends at Zapp Hall, but they have been replaced by perfect and easy evenings with friends at the...Read More

Not in the fall. The heat is too much to bear. Also, I can’t justify the costs for as little as I found this trip. Just so you have an idea – in case you’d like to go – the flight, truck rental, accommodations (not swanky), keeping my shop open at home and gas back...Read More

I just got back from beautiful Massachusetts, the Brimfield antique show was pretty amazing. I had no idea what to expect, except for the fact that it is hectic. I had space on a container that is on a train to southern California as I write. Next week I will drive down and pick up my goods....Read More

Hi, I’m back! That, my twelfth trip to the Texas antique fair, was the best one by far for buying. Yes, things were more expensive, there’s no getting around that. The internet, tv shows and social media has told us that our junk is worth more. Junk that I can do cool things with has...Read More
