After deliberating I have decided to close my shop in Lakewood. That is good and bad because although I will miss seeing the nice folks who stop by my shop, I will have lots more time to work on my booth at the Tacoma Antique Center at Fife and do shows. I did eight shows last year and they really take a lot of time and energy. Maybe I will even find time to clean my flowerbeds at home. Anyway, the sale starts Friday, April 24th and runs until I sell it all and I hope it all sells. So, 50% off and special deals on displays and fixtures. Don't miss it! Remember, you can email me at antiquebuttons@yahoo.com if you have any questions.
Thanks, Betty

Monroe Show

The Monroe Show was a great time for me because my sister Pat was here from Texas and she was a great help to me. If you have ever done any kind of show you know that it is exhausting physically and mentally. This show is located at the fairgrounds in Monroe and has so many wonderful dealers with great quality items. I could have spent a ton of money but did try to control myself. I did find a great little antique sewing cabinet that might have been part of an old sewing machine and some wonderful buttons. (Buttons are one thing I will just never get enough of). My sister bought a wonderful Llardro sailor figurine. I will be looking forward to the next Monroe show the first weekend in November. Hope to see you there!
