JUST IN . . .

Spring has sprung at The Old Oak Cottage!! Stop by to see the new items just in for Spring and Easter.





For those of you who JUST LOVE vintage kitchen stuff, we have put out more of that also.






We have brought in a couple different furniture pieces as well.
New Building Update
Well, unfortunately, we will not be opening the new building until April. We ran into a couple snags along the way. Plus, I was forced to think realistically. How was I going to get ready for the new opening, host a workshop, and get ready for Round Top Antique Week all at the same time? The answer was - "I'm not, unless I want to drive myself crazy". Which I don't! So, you will all have to wait a little longer to see all the goodies I have been saving up to put in there!
I will remind you again later, but the Cottage will be closed Thursday, March 24th through Monday, April 4th, while we are at the La Bahia Antique Show near Burton, TX. It is one of but many shows that take place along Hwy 237 that week. If you have never made it up there before, you NEED to come check it out. It is awesome!
Painting Workshop Update
Mandie, from Altar'd, came by to visit this weekend. She thought the workshop space had plenty of room for more students than she usually can fit at her place. Thus, there are still several openings for the March 12th workshop to be held here at the Cottage. Contact me (Marci) at theoldoakcottage@gmail.com, or Mandie at mandie@altard.com to sign up now. It is only 8 days away!
For those new to this blog: This awesome workshop will teach you how to sand, paint and glaze your own piece of furniture (under 36" wide). Mandie will give you lots of tips so you can go home and recreate your space! All supplies and lunch are provided. Cost is $225.
That's most of the cottage happenings for now. You can check our facebook page for more regular updates. I look forward to seeing you soon,
Marci
