A Note about My Other Passion

So, while this has nothing to do with vintage stuff or is even a family anecdote, I thought I'd just quickly share one thing with you because I was so excited about it I nearly peed my pants!

I do have another passion, aside from collecting old (or semi-old) stuff, and if any of you have ever read my profile or my 'About Us' page on my store website, you may know that I love the Southwest and dream of someday living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Well, one morning a few months back, I got a burr in my saddle and decided to write a letter to the editor of New Mexico magazine...And they published it in the September issue! I was just tickled! I've never written a letter to a publication nor have I had my words published in print (be it a school paper or a widely distributed magazine)! To read more about it, see my other blog about my soul-searching adventures and ramblings.

Anyway, just wanted to share! Thanks for reading!

We just found out that our vendor that supplies us with our beautiful vintage-inspired state souvenir textiles, has discontinued their production of the Florida design pictured here. This means, for all you Florida-loving folks, that these beautiful Florida towels and tablecloths that we carry on our site, will only be available for a limited time!! Be sure to get one (or two) while they're still around because when they're gone, they're gone! We've already sold out of our fun Florida pillows with this design.

We are pretty certain that eventually another Florida state desing will grace our online store, but until then, this fun design will soon be gone.

Perfect as a gift too!

Did you know that those great market tote bags, available in our online store and made by a wonderful company called Red & White Kitchen, were featured (see pic) in Country Home's June 2006 issue? To order one, just go to our "Bags & Apparel" page on our website - they're only $10.50 and are quite roomy! We carry the New Mexico state souvenir one pictured here as well as other vintage-inspired state designs. They're perfect for the grocery store! I like to use mine at the Antique Faire.
