Brigette has stocked her booth with some lovely items. You’ll find Booth #15 at the top of the stairs.

A gentleman calls Carol about an item on craigslist, asks if it’s still available, and wants to buy it.  Sure, no problem.  And ship it to Pittsburgh, since that’s where he’s calling from.  Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, that Pittsburgh?  More detailed photos are sent to the customer, he says ‘Yep, I’ll take it.”  Credit card run through, item packaged and shipped.  Gotta love the internet!

Located on the second floor to the left of the stairs, Booth #59 has a mixed bag of items including collectibles, glass, and kitchenware.

Lorie’s Booth #10 is located to the left as you go thru the glass sliding door.

You’ll find some very creative decorative items and more!

We were happy to deliver a load of stuffed animals to Sonjia Philpart of the Victim Assistance Program.  We didn’t count them, but it took three large trash bags to transport.  Thank you, everyone, who contributed.  You’ve made a difference in a child’s life.

We’re still collecting teddy bears, stuffed animals and toys for the Victim Assistance Program.

Join us with your favorite teddy bear on September 30th for Teddy & Me.

And bring an extra for the kids!

Hi! My name is Donna and I am a newby at this!  I’ve been a collector and crafter most of my life, just like my mother before me.  I retired a couple years ago and my collecting and crafting increased! I’ve collected things that say something to me.  I have native made and inspired items from North, Central and South America.  I, also, have things I’ve gotten just because it was something I liked or thought was interesting or different.  I love Christmas and Christmas tree ornaments.  I really like anything handmade.  Someone had the inspiration and ability to actually take one thing and make it into something else, amazing!  I’m a Viet Nam veteran of the USAF and my son, Chris, is currently on active duty, also with the USAF.  If it supports or honors our troops, I’m all for it!  What will you find in my little shop? Handmade /painted pottery, Mola’s from the San Blas, wall art from the Americas, handmade Christmas ornaments, native American made or inspired objects, one of a kind pillows to items honoring our troops, almost anything!  Thanks for letting me share space at “Laura’s Emporium”.  It feels like home!

Editor’s note:  Donna’s booth #22 is upstairs toward front of the building.
