Snow!

 Looks like a day inside.  Fortunately we filled the bird feeders this week, and it's good to see them stopping by.   
      The estate auction scheduled for December 11 was postponed until Saturday December 18.  I am scheduled to be open on Thursday, December 16 from 11 to 5, Friday, December 17 from 11 to 5, and Saturday, December 18 from 10 to 4.  I will be there on Thursday and Friday--and will try to have the store open on Saturday.  I will be downtown helping with the auction.        
      I have a few of the tepee trellis' shown in the photo--they make a great year round outdoor yard item.  We put lights on them this time of the year.  They are also a nice stopping place for the birds near a bird feeder.  Of course, there are other willow items available in the shop--child's chairs, tables, full size chairs, and more.  Some of these items I had posted earlier in the blog, but contact me if you are interested. 
     And there certainly will be change coming regarding The Rustic Shop--after 7 years, our downtown furniture store building is sold!  The closing is scheduled for early January.  There is much to do prior to that time, and we will be having an auction downtown to sell furniture store supplies, office equipment, old Montfort and Livingston advertising items, and any excess inventory.  So, hopefully after early January my business focus will be just from one location.
