Sneak Peek fall sale~Michelle Harpur

Here is a peek of one of our jewelry vendors.
Michelle Harpur, originally from South Africa, now lives with my husband and young son in Johns Creek, GA.   She has been making jewelry for many years, with her favorite media being sterling silver, freshwater pearls, leather and other natural elements.  The pieces are all hand cut, filed and brushed and then hand stamped with words or names of your choice.   It's meant to be personal and meaningful and to inspire gratitude.  You can see more of her work at www.puregratitude.net.

Fall Sale date!

Hi Everyone!
We have set the date for the Little Red Barn Fall sale!
It is set for Saturday, November 17.  We will be having this
sale at the same time that the city of Norcross will be having the "Harvest Market and Art Show" in Thrasher Park.  The Little Red Barn Sale will be participating along with this show.  We will advertise and be represented down at the park to draw people to our sale back at my house on North Peachtree Street.  Advertising will be encouraging the idea of gift-giving for the upcoming holidays. Furniture will also be available even though that seems to do best in the Spring sale. 
I have been emailing several of you who are interested in being a
vendor at the sale.  I have not forgotten about you!!  Here at the beginning of  August, my daughter is settling at college and
my sister and I are starting up in a new booth at a local antique mall.
The Little Red Barn Sale will be getting organized starting at the beginning of September.
We will have a button that we can all put on facebook,
and other media places as well to advertise for the sale.
Thanks
Alice Vander Veen
