The Trading Post

I have been waiting to share this post with all of you for a few weeks now! This is the store that I manage as my summer job. I am so excited to be working here and to be a part of such a beautiful collection of artwork and antiques. The store is called "The Trading Post" and is one of my dream jobs. Please join me in this little virtual tour:

Welcome to The Trading Post! Here is a happy jack-o-lantern to greet you at the front door.

Take a few steps in and you will see my home-made tie dress on an antique dress form. My mother's grandma gave it to her. 

Then, we have these sweet little chairs with the home-made pillow collection. 

We have all of these cool display cases and here is one that greets you when you enter from the lake doors. I love the collection of vintage crates, jars and even a hat.

Here is some wood work that is simply breath taking. Our artist is truly talented.

Here is the view from the store. It was kind of overcast when I took this picture today but, trust me this is where you want to be on a hot sunny day...or any day for that matter.

I made this sign today for our new kayaks! We now have brand new kayaks to rent which will hopefully go over well with the customers. I know Alec and I will be using them!

 

Finally, here is the view from the lake. There are more doors but, this is my favorite spot. 

If any of you are in the neighborhood (especially family and friends) please stop in and check it out for yourself! I promise it won't disappoint. 

Thank you for letting me share the store with you. Its practically a home away from home for me because I've put so much into getting it ready for the season and keeping it organized. Any suggestions or thoughts are greatly appreciated.
