rainy days
We had a rainy, messy day at the shop. The rain took a short break and we brought in 2 real cute cabinets. One is a yellow kitchen kubbard and the other is a black hall piece with a beveled mirror. If the rain quits tomorrow we will load up the side walk! I talked with someone that went to Liberty and they said they did have alittle clear weather but yesterday was horrible with the wind and rain and tents not a good combination! I hope Saturday turns out perfect for them. It is alot of work to set up for these events. Come by to see us we are dealing! up coming events are Customer Appreciation Day and Christmas Open House. Talk with you later. Harriet

about medleyanna's
I guess I should of done this blog 1st, but being new to this I did it backwords. I own a cute little junk shop at the stoplight in West End, NC We started the shop about 11 years ago in our back yard in a little building my husband built for me. We named the shop after our grand-daughters Medley and Andianna (who are 2 of our favorite people) The shop did well at our house until 9/11 and then we had a very poor year to say the least. We moved the shop to the stoplight in West End in October of that year and the rest is history. We grew from a 10x10 space to our current situation which is the entire building (2000 sq feet) We love junk and the thrill of the hunt. We can't stand to be wasteful and encourage everyone to use the good up in all of they stuff. Another project we are working on is a house built in 1772 on a beautiful creek in Montgomery County. We will keep you posted on it. We love it out there and go out for picnics on the creek when we can. We hope to have Thanksgiving with our families out on the grounds this holiday. blessings to all of you and have a great junkin day.
My first blog
Good Sunday Morning. It is a beautiful day here. A great day to go junkin. But since Liberty is this week-end (Sept 26 &27th) I will pass and save my $ for one of my favorite antique shows. We are working on some new signs for the shop and the Meet the Merchants in Seven Lakes this Tuesday nite. Don't see a sign you want tell us the quote and we will see what we can do. Its been a great week at the shop. We cleaned out a house from the 50's the first of the week and had some great vintage beds/dressers/vanity/ and tables. I said had because alot of them left the shop yesterday. We are still bringing in 3-4 truck loads every week and you never know what will be in the shop. Some weeks primitive some french country some shabby. Its all fun and we love our job. We love junk. catch you later Harriet
