Our little corner of the world...




I'm usually running at full-speed,
and even with boundless energy (hahaha)
I still hadn't carved out the time
to make our space at Summer House "OURS"


It looked OK, but was really just a room
full of unrelated painted furniture


I wanted some soft pieces, like pillows
(have I mentioned I HATE sewing?)
And a more cohesive look


Customers should want to stay awhile, and just visit
(and then just purchase...!)


We finally committed to nearly a full day,
and I'm happy with the results
(OK, so I'm happy enough, for now!)
The paint on the walls still bugs me,
and I need to bring over
my huge jute rug,
but there never seems to be
enough hours in the day

(maybe less time on FB and more time being productive? Nah.)

Summer House Marketplace


We've settled into our new location
at Summer House Marketplace


These are photos from around the shop...
it's big store, and I'm not doing it justice...


Every vendor has a slightly different vibe,
and it makes for a really eclectic mix

(OK, so I had to throw in at least ONE photo from our space...
...aren't these old books great?)


If you are even remotely local, this shop is completely worth the trip!
I've been in lots of similar shops and I can unbiasedly state,
Summer House Marketplace ROCKS!
