Welcome to The Marketplace

Hello Everyone!
We're heading in to the busiest shopping days of the year, so I hope you all are ready. I'm ordering Christmas Gifts full on right now and I know you're doing the same. So I hope you'll check out all the great links here at The Marketplace. If you're an Etsy Shop or Online Boutique owner come link up some of your shop favorite items. 

We had such a great turnout last week! It was wonderful seeing all the new "faces" over here. There's lots of shopping going on, 'cause I found lot's of sold items linked. YAY! Here are a few fun links from last week.

Just wanted to share a couple of the new pieces I have in my shop
This design has been floating around Pinterest
 and I've had several inquiries,
so I put a few together and just have them listed.





OK, so time to link up, Remember this party link is for items that are FOR SALE or your shop. Please have a link within your post to your shop or individual item. Link up to three of your individual items, and you don't have to have a blog to participate. If you do have a blog it would be so nice to have the Link button on your sidebar, and be sure and let people know about this selling venue. The more people who come to link and shop, the more fun we have!



Have a great week, remember this link is live all week, so check back to see the new items being listed.

Happy Shopping!

A little tweaking makes it Thanksgiving...


Drum roll please...
"The Late Fall Mantel"
da ta da da!!

OK, hope you know I'm kidding.


Just a matter of bringing out the turkeys 
in exchange for the snowy owls.


I've kept everything else that I started with back in September. My mantel has been through a few change outs, but now that it's Thanksgiving, most of it will be swapped out for Christmas in just a little over a week.






Here's the Mid Fall Mantel



and the "Super Early Fall Mantel"...


you can see I tweaked the flowers a little too.

Now my Johnson Bros. Turkey Platter gets center stage.


A few small changes in the Entry



 with a white turkey covered vegetable...


same for the hallway sideboard;
you guessed it...
more turkeys.


another turkey platter...
(I got more folks)


Salt and Pepper turkeys


big fat turkey painted white...
(He used to be multi colored but was obnoxiously loud,
so he was slapped with the paintbrush)


I'm not done with the turkeys.
You have to suffer through at least one more post of them.
maybe more...

Be sure and come by tomorrow and visit
for some Etsy and Online Boutique Shopping Fun!
