Happy Anniversary & Christmas Cheer at the Red Shed

The Red Shed celebrated it's 3rd Anniversary this weekend, with a fantastic sale! The postcards, emails & blog went out and our theme was "White Christmas". It's funny how sometimes the littlest thing can change everything.
It started when this adorable red velvet Christmas tree was found.....
"How about some poinsettias to greet our dear customers?"

(That is a vintage plant stand, assembled with a vintage chandelier and wired for light!)

"Oh, I have some red silk curtains!"
"And a fabulous crimson rug........."

And a new theme is born.... White Christmas, with a touch of PIZAZZ!

Then we start getting tickled, so we make an angel fly.........
Wrap a mink, and red mufflers around Red and the puppies..........
(a Red Shed Girl, never let's herself get bored...)
Figure out what Really makes us laugh...........

Add a touch of Gold, a touch of Silver, a touch of Wimsy..........








Some architectural interest............



(this is a candle holder made from an old stair rail)

Deck the Hall (Shed) in Pink and Black




And wrap the other side like a French Parlor............ Shake it all up, and what do we get?!? A BIG....


Thank You, Thank You, our Dear Customers and Friends for a wonderful 3rd year at the Red Shed. You showed your appreciation by purchasing almost everything we had, in order to feather your own nests. We love you, appreciate you, thank you for your kind words and gifts, and look forward to a warm and successful 2009.


Thank you , friends & fellow bloggers Joanna & Kimla for sharing their photos with us (we were so busy having fun we forgot to take photos!)

  2. I had so wanted to come, but play practice prevented it. I'm sorry I didn't get to because it all looks wonderful. I love, love, double love the cheeky chandalier! So glad it was a success. Debbie

  3. Debbie,
    The chandelier is still available (because it never had a price on it!) and only $45.00!
