Lookie what I got! I received a call this week about a large collection of crewel art (thanks to whomever tipped her off that I collect crewel!) and I feel like I hit the motherload! I've been collecting crewel to hang in my stairwell. I picked out a retro-orange...
Whew, I do believe antiques are making a comeback! The Antique Alley Arkansas Antique Show almost pulled as many customers as the November Christmas Bella Rustina. With that many customers spread over 97 exhibitors and 223 booths compared to 246 exhibitors in 400...

My first out-of-town show is in the books. Bella Rustina inside the Rogers Convention Center was absolutely gorgeous. I am so proud of how my exhibitors made their booths look awesome! My favorite part was taking the crew out to dinner at Shoguns. When I have the...
