It started as a spontaneous thought and evolved into a 3 week, three part plan AND we LOVE it! Why.................? Well, "Clearly" because it's "a good idea"!
So with mirth and delight and a twinkle in our Irish (and non-Irish eyes) we are announcing the first of three sales events to come.
Starting March 17th we are having a "Clear-Glass" sales event. All glass items in the store will be 20% off.
Every opening Thursday in March will feature a different 20% off sales event. Come on in for this 3 day event and watch our blog and weekly e-mail for whats still to come.

We went and we saw. We were inspired and we inspired others. We laughed and talked. We ooohed and ahhhed and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at The Flea Market Under Glass.
AND now..... We've returned to the Loft on 2nd and we can't wait for you to see all of our new and exciting finds.
This week we are sharing some pics from The Flea Market Under Glass and some pics of the new items at the Loft this week. We are still in the artistic throws of painting, re-finishing,sewing and collecting. We'll be adding even more to our boutique before this week is over but.... right now, we want to share cuz we know you've been waiting :-) So here is just a sampling of what's at The Loft on 2nd this week.

The fabulous upward view at The Flea Market Under Glass
Growing up I can remember my mother constantly changing our home decor. And as they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree and I have definitely followed in her footsteps. Not one to let any grass grow under my feet, I consider myself a mover and a shaker. My house is contantly evolving, from the ever changing of my wall colors, to my furniture and wall art. I love a mixture of style, from retro to contemporary. I also remember my mother, who is a true artist in every since of the word, creating beautiful pieces of artwork. I have also followered after her in this aspect, but have combined it with my love for repurposing and restoring vintage finds into eclectic designs. I fulfilled a lifelong dream of mine by opening up my own store called The Loft on 2nd in Anoka, Minnesota in September of 2010. Realizing a store front was limiting my creativity, I have since closed. Stay tuned to hear about all my new adventures!
