VICTORIA AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW IT!!

I HAVE BEEN WORKING MY OLDEST SON'S YARD SALE THE LAST FEW DAYS. THEY HAD A STORAGE UNIT THAT THEY ARE CLEARING OUT, SO SELLING EVERYTHING.

I TOOK THE NEW WALL CALENDARS ALONG WITH OTHER JTRS TO SELL AND WHEN A LADY WAS TALKING TO ME ABOUT HER SHOE COLLECTION, I WAS ASKING WHAT SHOES SHE COLLECTS. SHE HAD HER MOTHERS GLASS SHOES. I TOLD HER WHO LORRAINE VAIL WAS, AND TOLD HER I SOLD THE JTRS, AND WAS A COLLECTOR.

SHE SAID, "I ONLY HAVE 4 OF THOSE THAT MY NEIGHBOR GOT FOR ME" WHEN I ASK HER WHAT THEY WERE SHE SAID THE 'QVC' ONES. I DESCRIBED 'MISS VICKI' AND ASK HER IF SHE HAD THAT, SHE SAID SHE THINKS SHE DOES BUT WOULD GO HOME AND LOOK. I TOLD HER A LITTLE HISTORY ABOUT IT, AND GAVE HER MY PHONE NUMBER, SHE CALLED ME ABOUT 5 TO SAY, 'YES, I HAVE THE VICTORIA, BLUE PROMENADE AND WENT ONLINE TO CHECK IT OUT' SHE WAS EXCITED!

YEP, IT WAS THE MUCH SOUGHT AFTER SHOE!! I TOLD HER IF SHE EVER WANTED TO SELL IT, THAT I WOULD HELP HER (DON'T KNOW HER, JUST A YARD SALE PERSON) BUT SHE SAID FOR NOW SHE WILL KEEP IT, BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN DOWN THE ROAD.

SHE IS A SENIOR CITIZEN, A SHOE FANATIC AND MADE HERSELF QUIT BUYING SHOES, SO I GAVE HER THE LITTLE PILLOW 'SHOE FREAK'

I DON'T KNOW WHO WAS MORE EXCITED, SHE OR I!!!

MUGS

From Raine:

"I chose the very fashionable tall, slightly squared and flared at the top, shape for the elegant and contemporary 16 oz. mug to coordinate with my watercolor and ink artwork. But the most fun in this design was creating the handle in the shape of a shoe! I loved all the design elements so much that I wanted to be sure we could all use it as our ‘favorite’. That meant the handle had to be more than cute, it had to be comfortable as well. Ahhh, sometimes the best things in life are worth that extra effort."
