The Best Business Card Holder Ever

Hello all!  Wow... it has been awhile!  Most of my time this week has been spent getting things ready for the shoppe.  So, while I have had stuff to blog about, I haven't brought my computer or camera.  I don't really like showing things in a half done state... and trust me... it hasn't been very pretty.  We have run into some snags here and there, but we plan on opening sort of bare this Saturday and have our Grand Opening at a later date.  I am sure it will be a little like a home... you know, never quite *finished*

So, the other day I was *chatting* with a friend that is quite encouraging in the acquisition of vintage goodness department.... let's just say that we encourage boosting this economy!  And we were talking vintage trucks. She knew that I missed one on etsy that I loved from Mary's shoppe.  She sent me a link to one on ebay.  I rarely win on ebay, but I did this time!


Not only did Tara sacrifice this adorable Jeep, she also gave me the best idea... this will be my business card holder... that is if baby hughes will keep his hands off of it for a few minutes!! Oh, and don't feel too sorry for Tara... she got a couple of cuties to share with her boys too *wink*

Okay, have to get to work... be back as soon as I can!

bye for now!

    How amazing about the shop...I'm so excited for you (& don't even know you). I just rented a booth for the 1st time a week ago...it was a lot of work to prepare for that, I can't imagine getting ready for a whole store. I can't wait to see pictures. I love the card holder idea...it inspires me to look for something fun for mine. Good luck with everything!

    Great idea!

    Please visit my blog, I did a post today on The Vintage Marketplace show (this is a bloggers section) that will be held with The Tailgate and Music Valley show! Best thing if you wanna do the show you can earn booth reduction by posting about it! Come see me, I think it would be great advertisment for your new shop!
