Kitchen Cupboard

The old cupboard is a nice small size. The color is a soft brown with the work surface a natural stain. Imagine the hours some lady spent toiling to make her families meals. Antiques have such a story to be told if they could only speak.

Future Shop Owner

Jacob is my nine year old grandson who is interested in owning Gatherings some day. He has worked behind the counter and even sold some of his own items in the store. Thanks to sweet customer Jane.

Retail Buyer In Training

Ben is my seven year old grandson who appears to be checking on an order back in the storeroom /office. He may be purchasing inventory for the shop someday. He has a good eye for color and design and would be an asset to the shop.

How To Leave Comments

It is always fun to hear from many of you but some have told me it was hard to figure out how to leave a comment. I have tried to make it easier by adjusting the Profile at the bottom of the comment box. Simply leave your name or pseudo name where it says name/url then click to enter. You do not have to have the url filled in. Of course you can leave an anonymous or if you have a google or other account it could be done that way. I hope this helps and would love to hear from you.

Buckets

Old buckets with a bit of patriotic tumbling out. More red, white and blue will be in next week.

Patriotic Ornaments

Merrilyn hand painted these pieces on both sides. They can be attached to a wreath, branch, basket or hung from a peg. One customer is planing on using them for napkin rings.

Primitiques Dry Sink

Thought I would show another of Primitiques wonderful pieces. Its a cute size dry sink to sit by a chair. The finish is mustard over black.

Primitiques Are Here

This Homestead Cupboard is in dark red over black. The finish has a very early grunged effect. Primitiques furniture line is one that impressed me in Pennsylvania for creating a truly period look. Click on the picture to get a view of the finish.
