On-site painters and tea drinkers...fun :^)

I think we had more tea drinkers here today than ever before. That was fun :^)
And it was extra fun to have Pamela sketching and painting at the far table, having scoured the room for items to make an interesting still life. Hope to show you the finished work someday. Meanwhile, here's my favorite of the paintings she's brought in so far:

Pamellas roses

Thinking of joining us for some tea and treasure hunting? While you are looking for your car keys or bus pass (although it might be hard to take home the treasures you find via bus), take a sec and enjoy a preview of some of our newer consignments at The Living Room:
