Is there budget mix there? I can TOTALLY justify the trip if I can bring food home. I should be able to go soon. I couldn't make it tonight, as I will need DH to babysit, so I can take my time and look.

OMG!!!!! it was WONDERFUL!!!!!
MaryJane's quaint shop is soooo dreamy, you won't want to leave..
I posted a few pic's on my blog....wish I could have posted more....
Sherri, your little tot wool jackets looked so cute displayed on the vintage Pram.
MaryJane, the ever so gracious hostess had her chocolates out for us to enjoy, & enjoy we did....my all time favorite, the Chocolate Lavender bar...yum!
I think I may have overdoesed on Chennile, soy candles, aprons & vintage hats! but it was worth it.

Thank you so much Grace for sharing your pictures! You all look like you were having a great time! I can't wait to visit the store! My husband asked me where should we go for our 30th anniversary and I said "well Coeur d'Alene, of course!" We hope to make it up there in the next month. We have always wanted to visit Idaho! :O)
Again, thanks for sharing your experience with us! :O)

What a great day! I can best sum it up by saying that meeting with the fantastic farmgirls and seeing MaryJane, her family, and of course the shop completely recharged my batteries. I came home just glowing happy. It really is a destination vacation to come to CdA, see the shop, and of course get in touch with the great nearby farmgirls. If any of you farther off gals get the chance to come up, please do! I'm just gushing happy. I hope MaryJane has a huge success with the store. It is precious, and so filled with work made lovingly by talented farmgals. It was a real treat.
We make a difference. http://huckleberrywine.blogspot.com |

Sherri,
if you click on the pic's on my blog they will enlarge & then you will get a closer look at the details and your sweet little jackets.
Glad I was able to post some pictures, Pamela~Photobug also took some pictures & I know she will be posting soon. She always takes such great pictures.
I call mine "Snap & Run" as I do not have a great eye for photo detail.
hugz to you all this Labor Day Weekend.

I feel so happy - for MaryJane and her family.
I feel sort of sad - that I cannot participate, or add things to her store.
I feel so proud and hope that the store will be a great success.
Wish I were closer, and could really pitch in and help too!!!!!
Miss Wilma - and MaryJAne - where do you find those old vintage lace dresses? MaryJAne sent me a skirt that is so beautiful. I never find that in these parts,and I do root around looking!
Anyway, the store and the opening looked grand indeed!!!!! Good luck and all my fondest wishes are with you!!!!!

I know, not only would I love to get my hands on some truly old vintage dresses, but I'd like to squeeze my body into one....oh to have a waist under 22"...ok how about 26"....lol!
I read awhile back that Tasha Tudor's entire vintage dress collection was sold off(before her passing I think.) I have seen some of her collection in past Victoria magazines and they were just beautiful!. sigh!
miss wilma,,,me set you up!?! snicker snicker! Naw!!!! hee hee!

Oh, to be a little mouse in that store! LOVE IT!!! I want to live there.
Now MJ needs one of those sleeping kitty Perfect Petzzz to sit up on the counter. They're lifelike stuffed animals that "breathe" while they sleep.

I just got my catalogue from Vermont Country Store and there is a photo of a vintage green truck on it! I think I see a trend here! A farmgirl trend. :)

Shirley Jean,
did you read the little write up they did on having a clothes line?
It was a very good little tidbit about the importance of having a clothes line & how some communities have gotten "snooty" over the use of a clothes line...
