Hortons French Flea {No.2}

& finally I am sitting down
to pull this post & my thoughts together:)...
I really wanted to post some pictures of our
space at the French Flea,
although it has been a few weeks ago...


Our space was {small}...
& I really tried to go up with merchandise...
stacking, stacking & stacking!

we have had this chair in the shop for quite awhile..
& I kinda like how it looks,
all stripped down!

One of the interesting things about a sale
{to me!:)}
is to see what sells...
& amazingly enough there is usually
1 or 2 hot items!
{& it is NEVER the same from sale to sale!:)}
{these pillows were a seller this time!}

We used ribbons to dress up the top of
the tent...
{although you can only do so much in a
10x10 pop-up!;)}

Our collection of vintage typewriters...
{we sold 2 out of the 3}


I am loving old crates...
{& apparently other people are too-
we came home with very few!}

--this sale was kind of bittersweet...
as some of you know , this was our last
sale for this year...
My life is {busy :)}
& although
I {love} having sales, setting up displays,
meeting sweet customers & packaging....
I have been feeling pulled & stretched at both ends.
 Building/moving, mothering, homeschooling,
barista {& many other things} seem to
be filling my days right now...
& that's okay!
There is a season for everything...
& this is the season for me to step back from
shopkeeping for a bit :)...
Next spring {after we move}I hope to re-evaulate
& make some more permanent decisions!
{I will keep you posted:)}
Until then...
If you are stopping by to read shop news
those post may be few & far between!
{parties, house design & life posts will be what its all about!:)}
If you ever want any of our merchandise,
 I still have stock & all you have to do is
send me an email
at
damaskdesigns@gmail.net.
{& there is a few things in the works as to
where else you can find our merchandise...
I will update you when I can!:)}

Of course I can not end this post without thanking
you for being such dear customers & friends!
It has been a HUGE blessing to
get to know each of you!
We are honored every time you shopped
one of damaskdesigns sales!
Thank you!
