"A Voice From the Past With Good Advice"

A friend from the past at Fairview High School in Dayton, caught the blog about our new business Gathering Eggs and has been kind enough to offer some good advice on getting started.
Debbie (Bollheimer) Hampton has spent many years buying and selling antiques around the Northeast. She also creates fused glass designs and some of her work can be found here.
We were able to make it down to the World Trade Center in Dallas on Friday after getting all of our necessary documentation. Pattye's having a great time buying and merchandising all of our inventory and has spent hours getting items put on display. I, on the other hand, have a backlog of furniture to refinish and frames to make and cabinets to build and, and, and. Whew! We are having fun though.

As always, we are spending endless hours with the Dallas Morning News, but it is nice to have the income as we start our new venture. And don't forget for those in town, Mother's Day is just around the corner and I'm sure we'll have a great gift for you to purchase. God, I love self-promotion.
