This is my newest Chinese Checkers design.  Given the atmosphere that seems to be pervading the country at this time, I thought I would make a checkerboard designed with our founding principles in mind.  Do we still have liberty or do we have tyranny?  You decide.  Let us not forget the valuable price that was paid for our freedom.  This board sells for $55.00 plus S&H and includes glass marbles.


Here are some new items I've added recently.  I decided to make some mini-notebooks like my large journals only they are just 4 1/2 inches by 3 inches.  Many of them have the same pictures as the larger journals and they come with a mini pencil.  They are 4.50 each plus S&H.  I also covered a few more antique books in vintage fabrics and have a feather or a charm attached.  They sell for $13.00 ea.  And last but not least, a couple of make-do pin cushions from some vintage fabrics on a candle stick.  They sell for $22.00 each.




I opened my second booth at St. Mary's Antique Mall on April 1, 2014.  I am so excited and it is right across the aisle from my first booth!  For those of you who don't know where St. Mary's is, it is about 8 or 9 miles south of Ste. Genevieve, Mo. on old Hwy 61.  Here are a few pictures.  I've added some different furniture pieces that are hand-made right here in Missouri.  Love the big old document box in the second picture.  The child's drop leaf table is an antique piece and so cute.
