Be Inspired Features and Link Party #104

Happy Tuesday! Welcome back for features and party day!
 
Elizabeth and Co.

Furniture is definitely on my mind this week. I really feel the need to paint. Unfortunately, Mother Nature and Punxsutawney Phil seem to have other ideas. Now let's see what you've been up to this week .....

Meet Conor The Sailor Dresser from Silver Pennies. Danielle painted this one for her son. When it was finished,  he jumped up and down on his bed and told her he loved it - the ultimate stamp of approval!


And this is Lola Marie from White Cottage Boutique. Isn't she just stunning in red!


I love the natural wood inlay on this big beautiful buffet from Deborah at Confessions of a Craigslist Junkie!


 Wendy from Sometimes Twice also rocked the combination of paint and stain on this sweet little TV cabinet!


Korrie from Red Hen Home built (yes, built from scratch) this triple printer's console  cabinet as the media center and focal point in her family room!


This banana oatmeal smoothie from Caramel Potatoes sounds delicious and good for you too!


And just in time for Valentine's Day, Laurel from The North End Loft shared this pretty red heart wreath made from a wire coat hanger and a bag of rags. How nifty is that!


Thanks so much to everyone who linked up and linked back!

Spring Tag Sale Dates

It may still look and feel very much like winter around here, but we're thinking spring! And that can only mean one thing, time for another tag sale.
 
 
Our local readers have been asking for dates, so here you go ...
 
"Elizabeth & Co. Spring Vintage Tag Sale"
 
Wednesday, March 26th from 3 PM to 7 PM
Friday, March 28th from 9 AM to 5 PM
Saturday, March 29th from 9 AM to 4 PM

438 East Main Street
Westminster, MD 21157
 
 
And I know I've said it before, but it's absolutely true ... the very best part of what we do is the interaction with out customers. And we love hearing from you between sales too. Recently, a sweet friend and customer stopped by to purchase a desk for her daughter. (Yes, we are open by appointment if you are looking for something specific between sales.) Just a few hours later, I received this picture and a report that her daughter is thrilled with her new desk!
 
  
And another customer shared this photo of a centerpiece that she created with a pretty posey jar she purchased from us. And check out her clever idea of putting a battery operated tea light under a vintage glass insulator for some soft lighting!

 

We so appreciate your support and enthusiasm! It really is because of you that we get to share our passion for all things vintage and creative. Can't wait to see you in March!
 
Now this snow better melt soon, so we can get busy painting!
