Shopping friends

This is my friend, Karen, and her mother, Lynn shopping at MaryJanes new store. I will post more another day. I am tired from moving stuff around today...will also post pics of this later.

Flour sacks and more

This wood rack held the cutest fabric envelopes of flour sacks and tea towels. The colors were bright and crisp. Very nice.

Potholder envelopes

These fabric envelopes held vintage looking crocheted potholders...they looking amazingly as if they had come from grandma's kitchen 40 years ago.

Buggy-pillow holder

This sweet little baby buggy worked great as a pillow holder...love them wood floors!

Gated headboard

An old metal gate fits perfectly on a twin sized bed as a headboard. This bed sat in one of the windows in the store.

Silver Spoon Art

Many different designs in spoon art hangin' out here. I believe these were a F.A.R.M. project

Candles and sewing

Isn't this little sewing machine a great one? Behind it sits a table loaded with the bestest smellin' candles I have ever smelt! The apple was amazingly real.

MJ, Me, & Meg

MaryJane, on left, was wearing an antique wedding dress...it was very pretty. I am next and I don't usually have such a cleavage showing...this shirt does this on me, so I am going to add a piece of lace across there! Then there was Megan, with her belly sticking out...what a cute pregnant farmgirl!

Farmgirl Journals

The display case held the farmgirl journals that went around the country a while back.

The family

Behind the counter stood MaryJane, Meg, Stella in her daddy, Luke's arms.

Red Wall

This wall is behind the counter where you purchase goods. Some of us were trying to figure out what the rack had been in its previous life. Here is holds glass charms on chains. Farm girl poster filled up large place on the wall, as well.

What would a party be without Chocolate?

There were a wide variety of MaryJanes Organic chocolates/bars available to taste. I wished I had taken this photo when first arrived because the platters were full.

Drink troughs

On the left is the "done drank it all" tub. Then on the right are the bottles ready to drink. There were four flavors of which I can only remember what I had, which was pomegranate. These were out in the mall area, next to the store.

The Farm Truck

This truck is now in the Coeur d' Alene Resort Mall in downtown CdA, Idaho. It is here to advertise the opening of MaryJane Butters new "farms style" linen store. The opening is tomorrow. Karen and I will head down to check it out. I will wear my apron, Karen probably won't. She gets too embarrassed for that.
If any of you gals plan on traveling here to see the store, please go to my travel website (I am a referring travel agent) to check out my great prices on travel...I just might be able to save you a few bucks...which will give you more to spend in the store! No kidding...we do have great prices, so bookmark it and come to see me everytime you are traveling, sending flowers, buying tickets to an event, need a hotel room and more. I am at:

It would mean alot to me to have your business.

Trying to be humble...

but a touch of lil 'ol me is right in the front door. Yes, just as you enter the store there is a mannequin wearing one of my handmade crowns. This one says "Apron Queen." Now, pics that I tried to take inside of the store are not so good, as there was not much lighting because the store was closed. Anyhooo...this crown is covered in glass glitter and has started to turn a nice olde tarnished silver color.
Thanks, MaryJane, for having a bit of me in your shop. I am honored.

Romantic Farmstyle

This sign was on the back of the truck.

Pretty packaging

Nice job on the packaging, I think. Good enough to give as a gift, just as it is! I believe this was sheets.

A teaser

Karen and I both loved these linens...they look olde...just like we like 'em! These were on the bed that sits up on the bed of the truck.

Back of the truck

The store is to the left side of this truck. You can enter through the back door of the resort mall, which is across from free parking (is it is under two hours).

Side of truck

This one side of the truck in the mall.

But of course

This would be the licence plate on the farmtruck!

Goods

Budget Mix and Chill Over Powder

Budget Mix & Towels

Pretty colors, huh?

more of MJ shop

Another part of the truck that sits in the CdA resort mall.

Praying Founder

Here is the Founder of YTB, a former preacher, Lloyd "Coach" Tomer. He is praying here at the end of the church service they had on Sunday after the convention. What an inspriring man he is. His mantra "If it is not right, don't do it, if it is not true, don't say it."
