This amazing fragrance took 3 years and over 187 versions to perfect. Once it
was complete, the boys in the warehouse declared it "The Closer" and we are
confident you will agree. Jasmine, White Grapefruit, Lavendar and
Cedarwood blend to create a fresh clean scent with a hint of wood and spice.<br />

Let's face it. Every guy's space could do with an improvement in smell and
this "Man-dle" is the ultimate dude's candle. Royal Apothic's signature soy blend wax and
The Scent No. 1 combine to give a burn time of 40-45 hours. The classic
apothecary jar allows it to be a perfect fit in any dude's decor.<br />

Is it a good thing?When I think of Spring I automatically start thinking about change. Just the mention of the season sends us ladies into a frenzy! Time to rearrange the furniture, update the decor, switch wardrobes, re-set all the clocks, plant new flowers...... The list is endless and it's all about change. <br />
<br />
Spring certainly means change for us here at The Old Oak Cottage. The county has decided to make changes so we have piles of dirt and pipe out front along with backhoes, dump trucks and an army of workers. The Cottage & Showroom are both sporting new looks for this latest season and the upcoming Easter holiday. Marci is in Idaho now, starting this new season of her life working on plans for her new home. As for me, Round Top is March 30th - April 7th so I've got plenty of work to do!<br />
<br />
Even though change is often inconvenient or usually uncomfortable it can be a good thing. Change means growth, life, hope. All things we need in our lives.The Old Oak Cottagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399845878893043647noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2091175488787699819.post-89414976993629305402012-03-01T09:13:00.000-06:002012-03-01T09:13:05.046-06:00SPRING SALES EVENT<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioKRE97ffZ23gG929PHVG6UzTOB7efe0l49I_bD9Clfiw5DsrPS_xkuFUzhyRMcUo-Ad2wq56pE7HvvlLXXLVGTxPTrHubzRLrW8yFKLAnexwx8NshEHk6g7tvAsoX64hrk7mpbwq2xSg/s1600/OldOakCottage+Friend&Family+Spring+Sale.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioKRE97ffZ23gG929PHVG6UzTOB7efe0l49I_bD9Clfiw5DsrPS_xkuFUzhyRMcUo-Ad2wq56pE7HvvlLXXLVGTxPTrHubzRLrW8yFKLAnexwx8NshEHk6g7tvAsoX64hrk7mpbwq2xSg/s640/OldOakCottage+Friend&Family+Spring+Sale.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>The Old Oak Cottagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399845878893043647noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2091175488787699819.post-46405244804736606162012-02-04T10:00:00.000-06:002012-02-04T10:00:28.363-06:00Fabulous Finds<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Well, we are back from Atlanta Market and super excited for you to see what we have in store!

First, the bad news I guess - my husband has accepted a job in Idaho and I will be moving in February. I have known it was a possibility for a couple months now, and have spent that time grieving and praying. I have been grieving because I love what I do. I have gotten to be friends with many of my customers and will miss seeing their smiling faces. The cottage has finally become profitable after years of labor; and it has really just begun to grow to what I know it can be.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">The good news is the answer to my prayers. I have found a wonderful gal who loves the cottage almost as much as I do (if that's possible) to take it over. Her name is Pam Wiggs. She has been in the antiques business for many years, seems to like everything I do, and has a knack for finding (and displaying) the greatest stuff! AND, she is probably the sweetest person I have ever met! She currently has a little building at Ellen's Timeless Treasures in Humble, called "Pickering Hollow". Be sure to go to her facebook page and check out some of her stuff: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pickering-Hollow/287393088517" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pickering-Hollow/287393088517</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">She will begin working with me this month, and we will be traveling to the Atlanta Market together January 12th - 16th. Kendra will be here that Friday and Saturday for our semi-annual "Come and Play While the Owners Away Sale".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Really, things won't be changing too much around here. Jennifer of Metamorphose Upholstery and Furniture will be staying; as well as Crystal our in-house designer. Crystal will be in on Thursday's the next two weeks, then back to her usual Fridays. Stop by on those days if you have any decorating dilemmas you would like her assistance with.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Meanwhile, this isn't really goodbye yet, as I will be around this month. Please stop by to meet Pam; and I hope you will continue to support The Old Oak Cottage.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">LOL (my mom says that means "Lots of Love"),</span><br />

Crystal comes to us with an abundance of creativity and design expertise. She prides herself on the ability to "ReDesign and ReCreate" her clients homes by using furniture and accessories they already own while introducing one of a kind pieces. Her love for wonderful flea market finds, antique reproductions, unusual and interesting accessories, custom painted furniture, and one of a kind statement pieces makes this collaboration a wonderful addition to both of our business's.<br />
<br />
Crystal's love for accessories has taken her career from personal shopping and wardrobing to hosting private trunk shows showcasing handmade jewelry from individual designers. She was handpicked to assist an interior designer from Lexington Kentucky. They worked together for 6 years in Indiana and Kentucky until her move to the Houston area in 2006. Once acclimating to her new home, Crystal began to rekindle her love and passion for home design believing that having a Designer assist in creating homes we love , should be affordable to all. Thus, ReDesign was created. Crystal designs for clients in the Atascocita, Humble,and the Kingwood area.<br />
<br />
Crystal will be onsite each Friday from 10-5. When you come by to meet her, be sure to bring any questions, or pictures of the space in your home you are wanting to ReDesign. Together, you will create the home you have always wanted, one unique piece at a time.</span></span></td></tr>

What you can't see is the awesome Bowling Lane table that was surrounded by all this. I have no idea WHY I didn't take a picture of that. It drew alot of attention and, of course, it sold!</span> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAPiCRSb7CxNd2LRuUwrVfw1Hvq8b5muMZLQVfDn-6F1LVbkNxEoRMN1IY2J1zhUGzWJsuDjeMW46fC-TRK22KncyewOP6j9Gc4q_f69Nw2BLl_9y3NcYxqxhNTuO6o9z26jo7xK4u9tA/s1600/joy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" kca="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAPiCRSb7CxNd2LRuUwrVfw1Hvq8b5muMZLQVfDn-6F1LVbkNxEoRMN1IY2J1zhUGzWJsuDjeMW46fC-TRK22KncyewOP6j9Gc4q_f69Nw2BLl_9y3NcYxqxhNTuO6o9z26jo7xK4u9tA/s640/joy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I totally loved the aqua chairs - they went pretty fast. I do still have the turquoise head board bench. It now resides in front of the showroom. My hubby built my walls for me. The front was old screen doors I had inserted lace panels into, and the back and side were louvered shutters (easy to hang stuff on). On the other side I had a great old floral screen. I kept the screen for display, and it is now in the cottage.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTmkckrPe-U304Qgke0Ww93IEbL96dzrWv5bM0l7AnaekaHhmq6VQJYo-0FZgFB6XRfQY43VoFIRF8ZbVOKgVVjrS11l1OdhBa5jbfIAuG8RNxgccybOhEU6mg5UR71x0yYKfNRHMtBPo/s1600/turq.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" kca="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTmkckrPe-U304Qgke0Ww93IEbL96dzrWv5bM0l7AnaekaHhmq6VQJYo-0FZgFB6XRfQY43VoFIRF8ZbVOKgVVjrS11l1OdhBa5jbfIAuG8RNxgccybOhEU6mg5UR71x0yYKfNRHMtBPo/s640/turq.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">As usual, vintage and antique kitchen items were a big hit.

I had it painted by Altar'd, as well as the aqua bedroom set; I always run out of time to finish all my projects before the show. The green stenciled table and shabby white chairs went on the last day. My neighbors up there were starting to say the green table was jinxed. I had it up there twice before, and purchased it from Lori of Southern Grace who had it up there the show before that. I DID practically give it away, but at least it will finally have a new home.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBNCZUz0lFBs_-dzQJjw3yLD-qWZV4CXSfPAFS6W3h1Xxp4lD7mpBdiDGbB5U95XCM2r34dL_wfABKpxccZORvUQ5qySvTMeYQA_My3aNk4kNmWFvusrAaMJTNRGMBSYJfHA9YkgYj4Wo/s1600/china.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" kca="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBNCZUz0lFBs_-dzQJjw3yLD-qWZV4CXSfPAFS6W3h1Xxp4lD7mpBdiDGbB5U95XCM2r34dL_wfABKpxccZORvUQ5qySvTMeYQA_My3aNk4kNmWFvusrAaMJTNRGMBSYJfHA9YkgYj4Wo/s640/china.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Pamela and I have put the cottage and showroom back together, mostly.

This was my first visit there as I usually go to Dallas (it's so much closer). However, a fellow retailer at the last Dallas market told me that I just HAD to see AmericasMart in Atlanta. I still might not have ventured that far away if it weren't for two things: 1) I had no one to cover the store during the Dallas show, and 2) I was able to get a great deal on airfare. So off to Atlanta I went.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br />

I was going to arrive in time to check out the "lay of the land" on the first day, and then hit it hard first thing the next morning. Well, you know what they say about "the best laid plans . . . ". My flight was so delayed that I got to my motel around 5:00 pm. The market closed at 6:00 pm so I dejectedly realized that I wouldn't get there in time to really see much before they closed. So, I made an early night of it and planned to head out first thing in the morning.</span></td></tr>

I made it to the AmericasMart by 8:00 am and checked right in - no long lines; everybody else must have slept in, I thought. Up the elevator I went to the floor I was most anxious to see - Vintage and Antique Decor. I first noticed I was the only one in the halls and then, that the showrooms were all closed. I did find one saleswoman frantically working on a display who informed me that the showrooms didn't open until 9:00 am. I felt quite sheepish. Oh well, an in-house Starbuck's saved the day.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I had a great time the rest of that first day. I slowly perused all the wonderful items in the showrooms; noting as I did that the prices were a little steep. I checked out luxurious linens, sumptuous lotions and to die for furniture pieces. There was fabulous chandeliers, beautiful pottery and glassware, darling home decor, artwork, etc. I finished my first floor around 2:00 pm and had lunch, then began to check out the next floor. I was starting to see the same things I had seen before, but at different prices. Was that more or less than the last place? I decided I better start taking notes. Long story short - by the end of the first day I had seen one and a half floors. I had learned from looking at my map that AmericasMart consists of three buildings, two of which have over 20 floors! I was going to have to step it up the next day.</span></td></tr>

At the end of day three, I still had not placed ANY orders, and felt I had more decisions to make than I had time or brain capacity to make!</span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Day four and five I made myself focus just on the showrooms that I thought had items that would work in The Old Oak Cottage or The Cottage Showroom.

I want my customers to know that I really do work hard to find things that I think they will love, at the best possible price.</span></span></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I try to find something different than what they carry at the box stores or discount chains. Sometimes, however, a product still shows up at one of those places. I have heard "I got that at _______ for only ____" more times than I can count. Many are just stating a fact, while others seem to imply my prices are too high. Well, I also want you, my customer, to know that while I am trying to make a profit; I never, ever try to price gouge. I spend days comparison shopping, trying to find you the best at the best possible price. Usually, the price you can get an item for at one of the discount stores is less than my cost - they just have sooo much more buying power.</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Anyway, I am EXCITED about the many items I ended up buying at market. Most are unique pieces you won't find elsewhere (I hope). New items should start trickling in as early as this week, and continue coming in up to our Christmas Open House (mark your calendars for November 4th & 5th).</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">We have several pieces in the works in our shop, and I will be pricing and putting out finds from two different estate sales and an auction that I recently attended. I also plan to start surveying my customers now as to what lines they would like to see me carry, or items that they want but can't find other places. Please leave a comment if you have any ideas, or visit my Facebook and leave your thoughts there.

The possibilities are endless! When I have a special find, it is often difficult determining which new purpose I should put it to. Do any of you have that same problem? OR, I have seen an idea that I just LOVE, but cannot find the right old parts to make it all come together. It can be a little frustrating at times, but that's what makes the hunt so fun!</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I've put together some pictures of items that we currently have at The Old Oak Cottage, or in the Showroom, that have been put to new uses. Many of the ideas are nothing special or new, and others, hopefully will spark a new idea in your mind.</span></span></div><br />
