Hi everyone!!!
I have been gone for a long time and I am back with news about the Hog Shed.  After much thought and lots of discussions with those close to me, I have decided to move the Hog Shed to the Buffalo Nickel.  The Buffalo Nickel is a huge barn in Buffalo Minnesota. It is just about 30 minutes north of Lester Prairie.  There is so much to see at the "Nickel" and I have a terrific space.  Everything you loved about the Hog Shed is at the Nickel.  The Nickel is open everyday (Yeah!!!!) from 10-6.  It is located near the watertower just off Hwy. 55.
To be honest, this is making my life so much easier and now I have much more time for junking and fixing great finds for you.  I will miss seeing all of my terrific customers once a month but stop by the Nickel and I will probably run into to you as I seem to be bringing new finds to my space all the time.  Just go in the front door and hang a right.  I am at the end of the hall.  Can't miss me and wait till you see what we have for sale.  I am saying we because Shannon is still my right hand gal and she has some wonderful Easter signs and paintings for sale.

I am also doing the Junk Bonanza sale at Canterbury Downs in Shakopee, September 13-15,2012.  I have already been putting great finds aside for this show. I will be updating you with pics and info about Junk Bonanza.  Just mark your calenders, Sept. 13-15.

Here are some pics of The Hog Shed at the Buffalo Nickel....

I just love this robin egg blue...

 

Spring is just around the corner....

I still have our wonderful Pre de Provence

soaps for sale.   

These are just the sweetest nest pictures
