New Mini Hair Pins

Worked on some new Hair Pins last night. I just LOVE them !!! I ordered these cute little felt mini posies from etsy, by A Market Collection, she has some wonderful items for sale in her shop. So I made these hair pins out of her mini posies...... Getting geared up for Merlefest !!!!




Sorry picture is blurrrry...Still trying to learn how to take better pictures.

I also wanted to start posting pictures of some of the different items from the great gals in the store, girls on tenth, there is so much great stuff I didn't know where to start....So here is some of Tammy Brinkleys art work, her line is Periwinkle Pass.
Just love her stuff, everyone needs a piece of her work !!!






She has some wonderful  Mixed media art on canvas, art on small wood boards, and frames. We also have some prints and cards, and if that isn't enough, she has jewelry too... here are a few pics




 Will continue to post new items in the store, but if your in the area please stop by and see all the wonderful things we have for sale. Off to get some work done !!!!

I'm Back.......

OMG !!! It has been almost 2 years since I blogged, where does the time go ???? Well there has been a lot of life and many changes, and I won't bore everyone with the details, but I am still here in Wilkesboro, North Carolina with lots of new , new, new in my life and those around me that I love.
I have decided to try blogging again , not that I think I will have that many followers, but I am trying to build my business and I have heard it a thousand times in computer land that you MUST BLOG !! So here we go........


First, we have a new store...YES , yippee !!! It is "girls on tenth" and it is a co-op store with 5 wonderful ladies. We have everything!!! Clothes from Holly Giersch with "Even a Sparrow", art  "Periwinkle Pass" by Tammy Brinkley, handbags,Joyce Cirillo with "Girls to Girls", Tammy McHenry has "Refunked Junk"  jewelry and yes me, Michelle Gann with "the vintage home". So we have everything from clothes, handbags, jewelry, art and lots of home decor and furniture. Sounds like a lot of fun. Come by and see us at 318 10th Street , North Wilkesboro.

Next I have been working on my online store thevintagehome.etsy.com and that has been a whole new world , with lots to learn and lots of  fun etsians. Tried it a few years ago, but didn't really give it my all was running the old store at that time and I think like anything you do and want to make it good, you have to give it time and dedication. I am giving it my all !!!

I have set a personal goal to get my home based business off  the ground, and I am giving myself six months to make it happen. If not it is back to the work force, which I know would kill me !!!

I will start by saying I don't really know how to blog successfully, and my pictures are the worst , BUT, I am going to try , try, try, my best !!! I have several blogs that I follow and just love to read them and get inspired, and see all the talented things that people are doing out there. I also have so many talented people around me in my life right now, that I want to share that as well.

Here are a few pictures of the store, will post more as we go along and I get better at this. Till then.....

                                                 Will post more pictures of everything soon!!!!
