The Girl's Back Porch & a penny rug.


I spent some quality time working on my space yesterday at the store. I am going to be featuring some vintage kitchen goodies for a while. I have no room in my kitchen for displaying neat collectibles so I love to pick them up for the store. I also put some other of Judy's lovely kitchen items in my space as well. The dress form and apron are Carols (she makes the aprons - just love 'em).



Love love love the vintage child's stove I found! If only I could put it in my kitchen.


My dad is such a great guy. I purchased the plans for this chimney cupboard and he built it for me. It was so much for to work together! I painted it a new color (for me anyway) and I really like it.






I also just got these rugs in. They are a special price at only $29 each. They can hang on the wall or would work great in front of a sink.
I also just finished my second penny rug. I am planning on taking it to the store tomorrow - I'm a little hooked on them for now so I'm sure there will be more soon - as a matter of fact I'm going to take some cut out pennies to Disneyland - just in case I have a couple of minutes to stitch!


I also received the new issue of Mercantile Gatherings and I have a couple of other treasures to drop off at the store tomorrow afternoon. So if have a chance stop by the store and tell them Emily sent you.

I just found your blog..love it! I, too, have a prim shop. I love those green pears in that colander..I have the same granite colander and those pears would look right at home in my kitchen..I wish I lived closer to your Shop.

Your space looks great! I hope to visit my friend in Salem this summer and the Girl's Back Porch is always on our list of places to go! I'm just starting on my spring displays in the store. I am so ready!
