Hey! We've got some
BIG NEWS! rhubarb reign has
added a new address -- in addition to our current sales venues listed on the blog's sidebar, we can now also be found at
Mishawaka Antiques, located downtown on Lincolnway East in a lovely vintage building. The store is drop-dead gorgeous; we were so pleased when owners
Glenda Goins and Scott Wilson contacted us about being part of it! Stop by and take a look. If you aren't familiar with this neck of the woods, Mishawaka is just east of South Bend (we're talkin' Indiana here), which is just south of the Michigan boarder. About 2 hours from Chicago or Indy, if that's helpful.
Below is a peek at our move-in day:
Here's Joe, getting the infrastructure in place -- vintage doors for backdrop and wooden strips for hanging. Scott and Glenda had the space all prepped for us, and Glenda graciously let us stage in her space while we moved in. Next came the furniture layer:
And finally, all the smalls. Scott was kind enough to come by and get us set up in the computer -- we had three sales already by the end of the day! We also got to meet several other dealers who'd come in to fluff their booths. Everyone's merchandise is swoon-worthy; the offerings run from industrial and primitive, to modern and refined. Plus some yummy handmades and a tasteful selection of new items, all beautifully displayed. Be sure Mishawaka Antiques is on your shopping adventure list. Visit soon!
A quick thank you to everyone who came out to see us for the last Allegan of the season. Despite the rain, it was an strong finish to an awesome year! See you in the spring. Or better yet, come see us this weekend at Kane County! We'll have everything you need for fall. Check for new photos Friday, both here and on Facebook. xo
The weatherman has promised perfect fall shopping weather to boot -- sunny, crisp, cool.

That is always my first instinct the first day back at the studio after a show. What a mess! And multiple that by 10 this week, after something a month in the making, like last week's trunk show. Even though we try to be neat, things are always in a jumble. Then begins the weekly ritual we lovingly call "Find the End of the String." Somewhere in this mess, a new load is waiting to be uncovered. At least that's what we tell ourselves!
We were thrilled to see many of our favorite customers from both near and far. Thanks so much, guys; it really means the world to us every time we see you! Above and below are pics from our display inside the store:
We also had merchandise set up outside on the sidewalk under a canopy. The weather couldn't have been better. It was great talking to everyone; sounds like the Extraganza and the Country Living Fair were hoppin' as well! I'll put a few more photos up on Facebook, so you can get a better look at what we had to offer.
We are already hard at work on Allegan -- we shopped all the way home! Be sure your weekend plans include visiting us for Allegan's last show of the season. Can you believe it?! Summer is over, and we are on to FALL! xo
Hope you can join us! Checkout our Facebook page, SoBo's blog and SoBo's Facebook page for details. In addition to the trunk show, there is so much other stuff going on in the area that weekend -- the Country Living Fair is in town, and the Springfield Extravaganza is just 30 minutes away. It will be an antiquing paradise. Grab some friends and we will see you there.
