Nostalgia Vintage Clothing has moved in downstairs - with vintage dresses, boots, nightgowns, purses and lots of scarfs, gloves and accessories.
There is a 10% discount on all of their items through the end of October. 
Lynn has great taste - and would love to have you come down and try on that one-of-a-kind piece of clothing that no one else will have.

Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

Annie Sloan Workshop - Camas Antiques

Not sure how I have lived this long without painting furniture - It has become an obsession/hobby - I allow myself to paint as a reward if I get something I'm supposed to do done.  You too will be addicted once you start playing with the colors.

I needed a hutch to display Halloween - Painted & waxed it and it was in the store that evening - perfect.

The next class will be Sept. 10th (one seat left).  There will also be one on Sept. 24th where you can learn the basics of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint and Wax as well as 4 fabulous techniques that will give you the confidence and know-how to transform ordinary furniture and accessories into works of art!  Join us for this fun, informative workshop with hands on training taught by Amanda Bachelder, onegirlinpink  Take away instructional handouts and sample boards to reference as you tackle your own chalk paint projects at home!

Cost of workshop is $95.00 and includes all supplies and refreshments.  Preregistration required.  5 spots available per class.

Howard, our Halloween Butler & Raylene

We are working on getting Halloween set up - come by and meet Handsome Howard.
See you soon at the store,

OUR THANK YOU GIFT TO YOU.

A thank you gift of Vintage Key Necklaces to our 50 Customers this Friday and Saturday.  Our Store-wide Sale starts this Friday at 10:00 - Sale prices continue thru Sunday.  Please join us for the Vintage Street Faire on Saturday at 9:00 - the store opens at 10:00.

We are featuring the following Musicians at the Street Faire 

Thomas Mann       from  9:30 to 11:30
Michael McCabe  from  12:00 to 2:00
Alicia Newsom     from   2;00 to 3:00

We are also having Annie Sloan Chalk Paint demonstrations from 10:00 to 12:00 in front of the store.  If you haven't tried this paint on furniture you need to.  I have always had Tommy paint furniture for me - however I went to a Class for The Annie Sloan Chalk Paint before we started carrying it in the store.  My classmates teased me because I didn't have paint clothes - but I really hadn't painted before.

I have been painting all week to fill my booth at our Vintage Street Faire this Saturday.  Trying lots of different colors - you can't believe how easy this paint is to use - so perfect for me.  There is no sanding or priming.  Love the colors!!!

Here are before and after photos of a dresser I painted that will be for sale at the street faire.
I know I need to work on my photography skills - But Seriously this paint is incredible.
See you this weekend,
JoAnn

THERAPY BETTY, aka Casey is in the house.

I met Casey a few years ago at the Vancouver Recycled Fair - I went on the 2nd day and bought some fabulous items from her - my only regret was that I missed the first day.  It has taken awhile but she is finally here.  I took this photo with my phone - because I was afraid that the window would get destroyed before I got my camera here.  That deer head talks and sings - Can't tell you how much I love this - Thank you Casey.
