Hello Everyone!
I know I have been away for awhile but it's all for a very good reason.
for the last 8 weeks...the store in Tipton has been undergoing an amazing transformation!

The paint department has been expanded and a new area for blinds, shutters and shades created.



The Secret Garden (boutique area) has been totally changed.
The old plaster on the walls which has always been a problem has been removed...
And underneath the exposed areas...
The original brick!


The brick was then sealed 

And...new carpeting laid wall to wall!
No more old tiles slipping!




We then set about constructing an adorable cottage from the salvage we have been collecting for 10 years now!



Much in the spirit of Tinker House!

Entirely built from reclaimed doors, windows and other such elements!
(click on the above photo of Tinker to see more of my garden structure)




We are not quite finished
But almost!








We hope to be moving back into the area in about a week! For now it's closed so that we can complete out task!


We are also expanding the ephemera area to include a classroom and space for more of the old doors, windows and other architectural salvage we find.
Both areas will be complete just in time for our Grand Re-Opening Event!

We are so excited about our changes we decided to have a Big To-Do!
So...
 March 11 and 12
( Friday and Saturday)
We will reopen these areas for you to come and see all the changes for yourself!

For now....Please visit us at our Noblesville store located in the Logan Street Village Shoppes!
I will have more to share in the next few weeks!
But I would love to hear what you think of the changes so far!

Oh my goodness, how do I love the exposed brick wall. I'll tell you, I love it! Every time, though something exciting is about to happen I have to be out of town. I just have to make the trip down one of these days.
