A Welcoming Spring Display

 Summer has arrived here in Eastern Michigan.

Hot humid temps and even a bit of rain.

Thank you all for the wonderful comments to my last post.

 My next will reveal the bottom color of our cabinets.

Stay tuned.

This is my last Spring display.

Something I put together pre kitchen reno

near our front door to welcome all that come in.

The portrait is that of my paternal gramma's parents.

Robert and Effie.

Tried to do a close up of my punched tin lamp.

Hopefully you can see the pattern.

Notice the layering up for the 

three grouped pieces I added.

The zinc vase I re-purposed again from

my Winter bath display. 

The other side is the cut out tree. 

One of my quilts underneath.

Last Wednesday Bob re-opened our antique store

for a special buyer of ours.

She was a buyer for the film and tv industry.

back in L.A., but was homesick

for her home state, so she packed up and moved

here back home about 12 years ago.

She lives a hop skip and jump from our home.

Mark Walburg himself begged her to

to buy for his new series he was producing.

You might have heard of 

Boardwalk Empire.

He did not care if she moved back to Michigan.

He wanted her expertise and would pay her

to do the job here.

Do the job she did.

She also did Pan Am the series.

Oh I cannot remember al the items she bought 

for that show.

She bought many primitives one year

 for a period movie...cannot remember the name.

However she did beg me for my own personal

black kettle I had.

There were others too.

She is now involved with  Disney.

She cannot tell us the name until it comes out.

Once she starts a new project,

She always comes to us first.

We let her shop both our store and garage.

Well off to work the gift store now.

Hope everyone is enjoying there weekend!

Morning Spring Blessings To All!
