Yesterday was 20+ years and more for VINTAGE SELLERS!

YESTERDAY could have been 24 hours ago, or, for those of us who sell Vintage and Antiques it is much longer!  
Since my family members are no longer here with me, I go through the 100 or so boxes and totes of their possessions.  Some days I am washed out from the memories these provkoe when I unpack some treasured item which belonged to them, but being a disabled pensioner and living in a tiny space, I have to dispose of these.  I see people just sending to the thrift shops or garbage disposal bins, and I just cannot send them to landfill sites, and have sent much already to thrift shops, but these that I list inside my shop need to find new homes. 
Imagine the sounds of laughter my memory conjured up when I unpacked this old Rummy-O game!  

Alas, with no one to play with me so now it needs to go to some family who enjoy playing board games, bringing forth laughter and fun.
Where I live Winter remains, and this year it seems more brutal to me than many other winters I have lived through so game nights would be terrific while being locked indoors and out of the cold and damp snowy weather which makes roads like ice rinks...brrrrrrrrr
Whereever you are I hope your enjoying life be it out of doors or locked away inside.  
I intend on introducing you to other wonderful vintage shops which live here on ETSY shops which hold the wonderful memories from our pasts.  Things I see in many shops reminds me of the articles which my family couldn't stand keeping anymore and got rid of, or, things my family members collected and enjoyed every day of their lives. 
So stop by, my shop or other shops which eventually you will find here and browse to your hearts content, if the treasured articles bring forth wonderful memories, or sounds of laughter, or just to take you on trips down memory lane your all so very welcome inside.  We hope you will give us a visit someday, you'll be most welcome....
From the snowy One Thousand Islands region of eastern Ontario, Canada, I bid you a wonderful day and if your travelling in this winter weather I wish you safety  and warmth.
