You should come to the states -- they're hardly selling at all here (at least in Michigan).Anne@Kitschy Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08712937651022641233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-12548785179972728392011-08-13T06:36:18.396+00:002011-08-13T06:36:18.396+00:00I always love seeing pics of your shop!

The ladies would save the hair and make it into a 'rat" to add to their Victorian hairdos, making the familiar pouf of the time. What a lovely group of photos you have shared today! They make me want to go to a summer tea party.DebbyMchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277126404406073860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-41990011025254290182011-08-11T19:47:58.282+00:002011-08-11T19:47:58.282+00:00I love your clock!

A wander through the posts on your lovely blog is like taking a step back in time... something I have done a lot of in my novel 'The Time Sculptor's Secret'. <br />Looking forward to seeing the ancient Market Cross after its facelift and I do hope your parents have a wonderful time seeing their new great-granddaughter... how exciting for you all!Jane Westwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06983053002180679463noreply@blogger.com
