Amber with her lovely smile, greets everyone and gives them each a gift that has a discount good for Girl's Night Only.

Renee and Betty put together a little love note pocket (which I forgot to get a close up of, but take my word for it, they were very, very cute)that Amy showed for our make and take project for the evening.
Also Vanessa was there doing her famous chair massage. Thank you all for coming.

Capes for Courage

Remembering May ...

We had such a great event for Capes of Courage mid May. Capes for Courage gives capes to children who are receiving treatment for cancer.

We spent the morning cutting, ironing, and sewing these little capes. We completed 49 of the cutest little capes you ever saw.

Thanks to everyone who donated fabric for this special event!

Willow Creek donated 20% of all sales that morning to Capes for Courage.

Trunk Show last week at the shop

We had a great time with My New Friends last Thursday. They specialize in personalized items. Here is a couple of pics showing some of her great stuff. I LOVE the pillowcases! The last pic is of towels with the name on it. Sooo cute!

Happy Easter!

Did you know the Easter Dog has a cousin? Good ole Zeke and his cuz, Chula.

Only in New Mexico

Went to the bank the other day and there sitting on this truck was a roadrunner. I just had to take a picture of this handsome guy.

Thank you, Bru Sisters

Oh my goodness, what a wonderful surprise! I am just sitting there pricing stuff and in walks this beautiful bouquet. And then to find it was from these incredible women that I visit with on the internet who live all over the country, It just about brought me to tears. Thank you, ladies.

Our newest helper at Willow Creek

Isn't she just the cutest! This is Miss Savy, Amy's daughter. She popped in to help.

Thanks to all that come to the open house

It was a huge success and I am so pleased that so many of you came. I am glad you like the new place. Thank you.

Here it is- the grand opening photos

Sorry I haven't been posting lately, but I have been busy as a bee

I moved the shop. What an undertaking. We moved last Sunday and 6 days later, we opened.

Here is the before pic.


The during pics. Thanks Mr Willow and Eric. They tore down walls, they hammered, they painted, they hauled stuff, they did everything I asked. Thank you. And Allen remodeled and framed in this old antique door I bought at an auction. I am so proud of this puppy. Thank so much Allen. He is a skilled craftsman. This is the third shop of mine, he has remodeled. These men have the patience of saints to put up with me and my mind changes.
And the after pics are in the next post.

Happiness is a brand new car

I'm happy....

Mr. Willow is happy....

Zeke is not happy. It was trying to load a mule into the back of my brand new Honda Pilot. He said no way.

So, the passenger seat it is. Now Zeke is happy.
