info for Studio Sale

 

EMMA ALLEBES STUDIO SALE INFO:

 

Some quick info that will help you (and us!) with your shopping today!

 

Helpers  - who can help you or answer questions are wearing nametags

 

We aren't 'dealing' on Friday.  We will definitely be 'dealing' on prices on Saturday from noon until 3.  If you want to leave your name, email/phone #, name of item and price you're interested in paying – if the item is still around at the end of Saturday – we will be happy to contact you.  Or – of course, you're welcome to return on Saturday!

 

We will not be cutting any fabric – all pieces are sold 'as is'.

 

We have 4 different areas with Great Items!:

 

GARAGE: Antique Oak Roll Top Card File Cabinet – circa late 1800's, Christmas & Santas, Halloween, glassware & collectibles, knick knacks, dishes, costume jewelry, baskets, Wolf dress form, lower half of black & white mannequin, quilt rack, quilt ladder, etc

What is Your Emma Story?

This blog is a chance to remember and honor Emma by bringing us together in a way that can only be done through a medium like the internet. We love her, we will miss her, but she's here for a short time still, and we want to smile and cry and laugh together with her as much as possible while we can.

Emma has touched a monumental number of lives through her work as a mother, grandmother, friend, teacher, artist, and to Ted as a dear wife. There are countless stories that have already been told many times, and there are many others that we're going to learn for the first time as we read them here.

PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS, STORIES AND PICTURES!!!

Not only will we be able to laugh and smile together, even after Emma has passed, but we will be sharing this blog with Emma. If you have a story, long or short, silly or sad, pensive or outrageous, please take some time and share it with us and Emma.

This is such a dear time for all of us. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and prayers.

It's easy! To post to Emma's blog, send an email to emmaallebes.post@blogger.com. If you have a picture(s) that you would like to add, make it an attachment to the email. Your email will post automatically.

Please remember to include your name somewhere in the email/post.
