Grand Opening Weekend At Lil' Red

this photo was only her beginning phase! I will update shortly

This Weekend Lil' Red Schoolhouse will be celebrating it's  Re opening with our NEW owner!
Oct 3oth and 31st 2010!

Pat has been a dealer at the shop for about 11 months and when Louise decided to sell, Pat stepped right in!
You will notice some changes when you come in! Pat is bringing a great new look to the shop! She has painted the main room, brought in a wonderful new counter ( the old school desk is gone...but not forgotten)

She has introduced some new dealers and several have moved on!  The fresh new look will include some carefully chosen gift items as well as some dip mixes and a handmade letterpress line of Cards!

  
Pat and Linda have put in many long hours to bring the shop up to it's beautiful state.  Tammy has been adding her touches as well!  Remember the little bathroom?
Pat has made it into a sale room! The dealers will be adding items there from time to time!

Please stop in to the shop and be sure to tell her you read about it on the blog!

Please know that there is some limited space available for new dealers. inquire with Pat at
