Here's a few of our weekend deliveries.

Tomorrow, Saturday December 14th is The Route 66 Christmas Shop Hop.
We will have loaded shopping bags and the whole store is 20% off.

If you don't know about our loaded shopping bags, here's how it goes...

3 times a year we load our shopping bags with gift cards, gas cards, gift certificates, and gifts, from me to you.

Every bag contains something, so when you get home, be sure to examine the contents carefully.

You'll find something that you didn't pay for, and it's our gift to you.

We are a passport pick-up and drop off for the shop hop. So we will either be your first stop, or your last.

There are 16 shops from Dwight to Wilmington that are participating in the hop.

Stores open at 10am and close at 6pm.

If you visit every shop, and get your passport signed, you will be entered in our grand prize drawing for a gift certificate from every single shop.

You don't have to fill your passport to join in the fun, if you don't have time to visit every shop, you can pick up a passport and you can visit the shops in your area and enjoy the sales and the refreshments, and enter the drawings offered by some of the shops. Each shop is offering their own specials for passport holders.

We are also raffling a 3 months subscription to the bouquet of the month and we will be drawing for a fresh Christmas centerpiece.

Passports are available here and at Le Fleur De Lis Boutiques & Antiques in Wilmington.

We have lots of new inventory today. Here's a whole cabinet full of Budweiser Holiday steins.
How about an Indiana Carnival glass Harvest Punch Bowl set with 12 cups and original hooks in Iridescent blue?
I just priced a whole shelf of Avon Cape Cod ruby red glass.
I refilled the Uranium glass cabinet.
Just priced a Brown Lightning Jar.

And this amethyst fruit jar is manganese.

Manganese glass deserves its own post. ( If you know, you know) Look at the glow!!!

I just put out 15 pieces of beautiful glowing manganese glass.

Get in here and get it, while we have it. It leaves quickly.
