Hope you are all enjoying summer (when it is nice lol!). Just wanted to let everyone know what I have been up to..... I am still at Indulge and loving it! Been shopping and finding lots of new interesting items and am posting some pictures. The first one is of a Sellers Kitchen Cupboard that I just found ( the one I had is now for sale at Indulge, 2nd picture). We found some really awesome yard art planters and have a couple of those for sale also plus lots of primitive metal pans, buckets etc. that I have filled with succulents. My space is crammed with stuff right now.

More info.... I will be renting a space in a new store in Creswell sometime in July and will post the address soon!

Indulge is having a big parking lot marketplace on July 30th from 8:00 until 4:00. I believe there will be at least 40 vendors so it should be lots of fun. Hope you get a chance to stop by and say hello!
