Saturday , May lst is the Maple Festival in Downtown Bomanville. Under the Toadstool and City Cottage are very pleased to be taking part in the festivities. Both stores will be setting up outside on the main street. We will offer lots of nice items both new and old. There will be plenty  of surprises and some great deals. (Everyday, not just on festival day!). And refreshments!.   Come by and say hello at 44 and 48 King St. East and help us celebrate the day!

I was excited to get an inquiry about my store from the US. It pleases me no end when people show enthusiasim and interest in my shop.

My business partner Jenny and I took an early morning drive north to Lakefield this morning. There is a wonderful old real Flea Market up there. We stopped for breakfast along the way. It is not often that we can hunt for treasures together because one of us is manning the store. Although a little nippy this morning, we both managed to find some wonderful new items for our stores. The truck was loaded down with goodies on the journey back. Now we both have to transform our treasures into pleasing items to display for sale in our stores. Do drop by and take a look. Every day we offer more new and exiciting collectables, furniture, artwork and more!
