decisions...I hate 'em
I don't know why
it's fear, I guess
fear that I won't make the right decision
fear that I will neglect the ones I love the very most
fear that I can't live up to my own expectations
After
stalling for as long as I could possibly stall,
lots of prayer and talks with My Mr.
I did it.
I decided.
We have a date!

Rene,
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous idea!!! I'm stuck here on the Prairie...so I'll have to be with you in my thoughts...and prayers for a great success, dear friend! I could just sit and look all day long! Lovely post!
Fondly,
Pat
Ah you do know how to temp a woman don't you?
ReplyDeleteI live in eastern Utah. Are you a hop skip and jump away?
What a fun girls trip with my daughters.
Good luck.

Oh- How I wish I could be there- if for no other reason than to meet you in person. Everything you have showing here is just GORGEOUS. Congrats on making the decision. I do think that is the hardest part of all...making the call to just DO IT! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteLOve the way you put things together, looks like someone could just move in there!
ReplyDeleteSo...would I sound greedy if I said I want it all? lol So much to see, so much to drool over. Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteBlessings & hugs,
Karen
I love your blog. I am your newest follower and will pop in often.
ReplyDeleteRene...you're killing me here all the way in Australia....if only I lived closer I know I would find some lovely treasures at your barn sale...xo
ReplyDeleteIt's all wonderful, and this one will be too.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what it is about deciding either. I think you are right, fear based somehow.
I've been trying to decide about anew sign for the store for 2 years!!!!
My daughter said "just decide! Even if it is wrong at least you have made a decision!" Did that help? no. Still have not decided.
always enjoy my visits here.

I looked at your photos a few times and I think I definitely love the unpainted pigeon hole/shelving. Hope your sale is successful.

I would love to come to one of your sales!! I just love everything that you do Rene'!!
ReplyDeleteDo you have a baby yet ?
YES!!!! What do we have to loose?
ReplyDeleteMy Sister in law and I put together the Vintage Marketplace at the Oaks here in California and yes it was hard at first but after 3 years it does gets easier. You will have a wonderful time and great sales. June is a great month to do it. I will keep checking on your progress. Ciao Rita
Believe me, if I lived closer, I'd be one of the first in line! You had some amazing items at your previous sales and I'm sure you'll follow suit with your upcoming sale.
ReplyDeleteOh my... so many pretty things! Stop by and link up if you have time
ReplyDeleteMary
Pure eye candy, Rene! Wish, oh wish I could come!
ReplyDeleteHaving done our own white show I know it is a big commitment with lots of work which in the end provided lots of smiles and great memories (along with atleast a week of R&R)!!
ReplyDeleteLove all the displays...very inspiring!
You know if nothing else tells me time is flying by, this would. it seems you JUST HAD your sale, but it was a year ago? I would love to fly across the country and come to it!) (wishful thinking!)
ReplyDeleteI wish I could come up. Your previous sales all looked amazing. Terrif merchandise and merchandising!
ReplyDeleteDeb
Renee,
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish we were closer so I could attend this event. I know I'd be returning to the Fairfield House with lots of treasures! Have you considered listing any items online for Miss Gracie fans that live too far away to attend? If so, please let me know.
Your Friend,
Deborah
WOW! Oh, how I wish I lived close enough to visit your fabulous event. These past photos are filled to the brim with treasures, so I'm sure this event will also be a huge hit. Best of luck to you!!

ReplyDeleteI would arm wrestle my best friend for all of your goods. Alas I am in Georgia and fear airplanes. Do have fun and sell it all, which I know you will.
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable you would have a hard time deciding with such great stuff to go on. I'm sure you will have a wonderful time and a great sale. Such fun. Too bad I'm in Florida. :( I found you at The Charm of Home.
ReplyDeleteLiz
