Closing the Ol' Doors....

Here it was. The opening day of my booth at Winnie & Tulula's (affectionately referred to as "Winnie & Tuboobies" by me and my hubs.....we joke alot.) One month shy of a full year ago to be exact.

This weekend, I cleaned out my space and said goodbye.

The owner, in her elegant way, blew kisses in the air and with warmth in her eyes said, "Come back soon." Whether that be as a shopper or a booth owner in days far off, who knows.

As much fun as it was, I had to make a decision. During the summer months, I had no problem keeping my space fresh and fluffed.....but during the school year, the extra time just wasn't there. And any of you who've been in that store, being the 'sad' booth just ain't for me.

Also, it's looking very certain that this summer, my family and I will be gone - together - for two months. I certainly couldn't keep up from afar......

"Goin' with the Flo" will still be refurbishing pieces and donating though! I can't make it without my paint therapy....it'll just be one at a time. Client pieces. Selling on Craigslist. That sort of thing.

It has been an extraordinary experience, and I'm glad I took the plunge.
