Work! Work! Work!

Well, you might have noticed our lack of posts lately, but it is because we have been so crazy getting ready for our next sale. OK, there may have also been a trip to St. Louis and a terrible case of the flu, but other than that we have been busy :o)

We never imagined that we would be so busy during the sale and we thought we could save a few things for the December Sale, but we were wrong.  So, our stash has been depleted.  Now we have been busy collecting, repairing, sanding and painting.  Our garages are full, our husbands may be less than thrilled and our hands are covered paint, but we couldn't be happier! 

Here are a few "before" pictures of things we will have at the December Sale. 


You may have seen this if you stopped in on Sunday, but it is going to look so much better once we get done with it!





This one is another little surprise we have for you-  so unexpected and so stinkin' fun. 




If there is something specific you are looking for, let us know and we will do our best to get it for you.

Mark your calendar for the next sale. 
December 2 10am-8pm
December 3 10am-6pm
December 4 12pm-5pm


Back to work!

WOW!


I think that is about all we can come up with right now!  Our grand opening has been more successful than we ever could have imagined.  If you saw the article in the Fargo Forum ( http://www.inforum.com/event/article/id/336824/publisher_ID/1/ ) we talked about the 2 fears we had.  The first being that we wouldn't sell a thing and the second that we would sell everything on the first day.  Well, it was definitely the second!  By mid-afternoon on Friday we were starting to panic because so much was gone.  So we called in reinforcements (our wonderful, strong & handsome husbands) and sent them to load the trailers with things we had ready for the December sale and stocked the store again and again and again! 

So, if you haven't had a chance to stop out OR if you were already in and want to see what's new, we are open for just one more day.  Tomorrow we will be open from 12-5.  After that you won't get to peek again until December 2nd!

We also wanted to let you know we are very interested in seeing where our treasures have made their home in your home.  So send us your pics of how you placed the furniture in your home and we just may feature your picture on our blog and have a few prizes to share!  2momslivinthedream@gmail.com


See you tomorrow!

A few of my favorite things

We are about a week away and the store is looking great.  We have prices on everything and we are busy trying to get everything looking perfect for when you come in and visit us.  There are so many things I love in the store but one of my personal favorites are the signs we have.  They have the cutest sayings and some are quite funny too.  The Halloween sign below, "IT'S ALL ABOUT THE TREATS!" is so true! 

My personal favorite thing is a magnet (pictured on right) and only because it tickles my funny bone and I laugh every time I pass it.  When Beth and I were going through our inventory we were giggling like school girls.  I am giggling right now because I just can't help it!  Come visit us and share a laugh next weekend!

The Countdown begins...

Wow, is it really October already?  When we began this journey and set our first sale date for October 14 it seemed like it was so far away.  Now here we are!  Less than 2 weeks away and working on the finishing details.

I know I have said this before, but when the boxes come everyday it is like Christmas over and over and over again! 

Recently, we got one of the first things we ordered at market and we were so excited-PURSES!! They are the cutest handmade purses we had ever seen.  Cassie and I each have unique styles and you can tell by the different purses we picked out, but we know you are going to love them...that is if we don't decide to keep them in the mean time!

Don't worry, if these aren't your style we have plenty of others to pick from.  After all, a girl can't have too many purses!

See you in 11 days!
