First Fall Sale

Thursday, September 2nd from 9am - 4pm


It's hard to believe, but after almost
completely emptying the Economy Shop of its contents in June, we have
a full house packed with new and fabulous donations! Our volunteers have been working hard,
and sweating a bit, to get everything clean and on the shelves for the sale!

The sewing department is
going to be the hot stop of Thursday's sale! We have hundreds, possibly thousands of vintage buttons. Even if you have never ventured down to the sewing department, you have to see this! (don't sew - think boring sweater needing some pizazz)

One volunteer in the sewing department went above and beyond the call of duty. She casually
offered to sew some of the loose buttons on cards, so they were easier to see.. but this is what she came up with!! Buttons skillfully placed on stamped paper - a work of art!! They would make a great gift card!

bulletin boards where we have the works of art
