Dirtroad Team - Fine Old Things and First Friut
This week I have some very different shops from out team. The first shop comes from a small town in Illinois. Karen runs Fine Old Things, which is filled with wonderful vintage items. You will find vases, jewelry, figurines and a lot more. Add to your collection or replace a missing or broken item. Karen hunts estate sales, for the best items to offer. Going through her show was going back to my childhood, visiting my Aunts, and family friends, many of the items I have grown up with. When you are done with you visit to Fine Old Things, stop over at her other shop Expressions 123. This shop has note cards, fridge magnets and table decor, all hand made by Karen.
The next shop will make you hungry. Bonnie from First Fruits lives on a farm in the upper part of Michigan. She has the best marshmallows! Plus jars of jam and jelly, cookies, gloves and hand warmers. The jam and jelly can be pick from a list of about 26 flavors. Get some for yourself and to share with a friend. Bonnie sells at all the local farm markets each week, and sells around 6 dozen jars of jelly each week, with many being repeat customers. She has to be doing something right, to sell so much each week. All of her food is made in a commercial kitchen inspected by the state of Michigan
