I once again have my hands in too many things this week, but the things are awesome! Tomorrow Robin and I will be attending the Runway for the Cure. I have worked diligently the past few weeks finding Bella Rustina exhibitors who will be donors for this event (and picking up items) so we could have a $500 value table to give away at the event. One lucky participant tomorrow will win a set of 3 pallet pumpkins by Small Town Pickers, a large handmade barn-wood frame with vintage lithograph given by Blue Dog Relics, an antique ironstone pitcher and a piece of artwork from Oliver’s Antiques, an upcycled vintage jewelry necklace by Sparklythangs, and $30 in Bella Bucks plus two tickets to the October 13-15 Bella Rustina. I hope the winner enjoys the items – this would be a dream giveaway for any of our customers!
As part of the Maumelle leadership group I’m in I was supposed to volunteer for the Maumelle’s Bash on the Boulevard this weekend, but they received a cancellation at the last minute, so now I’ll have a booth like last year. I ordered a really nice tent (hopefully nice in more ways than one after my old one punched me in the face last year), so hopefully I won’t have any trouble with it. I just got the call today that I’ll have a booth so I’m really going to have to think quickly about what I’ll bring! I really enjoyed participating last year, so I’m excited to do it again.
Here are the junkin’ opportunities I know about for this weekend:

I’d like to give a short explanation about something you are likely to notice while shopping. Our client is keeping a lot of the furniture and wall hangings to stage the house for sale. We do not know what will be available after the house sells. We have covered many of these items so that they are not as tempting; but as humans, it’s easy to want what we can’t have. Please know that we really CAN NOT sell the items that are marked “NFS” (Not For Sale) or items with our client’s note to “KEEP.” We’re going to have lots of people ask about those items. We love you and will do our best to repeat the words, “I’m sorry, that’s not for sale,” with patience and kindness. If you love us back, please try not to ask. There are sooooooo many wonderful things that are for sale and we are thrilled to offer those to you. Thanks!!
