Christmas at the Red Scooter

If you are all done with your shopping, baking and gift wrapping

why don't you stop by the Red Scooter today to visit their 

Christmas decorations?

This vintage Santa collection is ready to greet you!

I also love this feather table top tree.

Every year the Scooter does a great job of hosting

a Gingerbread contest for the community.

Here are a few samples of this year's entries.

Awesome detail and all age categories

make this a great community event.

Next year I will have to dust off my

piping bag and join the fun!

Another wonderful display to add to your

delightful visit is the Christmas village.

Meticulously setup in loving detail

to reflect buildings in town.

Collecting for over 40 years, she has 

definitely mastered the Christmas spirit

and we thank her for sharing it!

Even after the holidays when the kids

or the big kids need a holiday

activity a visit to the Red Scooter is a great day trip out

from the Louisville area.

December Books

Thanks for stopping by!

Here are my December book selections:

 In what may become a Christmas classic

Author Glen Beck writes the true meaning of Christmas

thru the telling of what Santa Claus really represents.

Or that's what I got from the reviews of Mr. Beck's latest

book "The Immortal Nicholas".

I thought it would be a good December read.

Next I selected "The Story of Alice"

by Robert Douglas-Fairhurst

after seeing it profiled on Sunday Morning on CBS.

Author Douglas-Fairhurst profiles the relationship

of Lewis Carroll, author of "Alice in Wonderland"

and the real life family friend Alice Liddell

whom the tale was originally told.

It is the 150th anniversary of the Alice in Wonderland book

and learning more about Carroll and

the meaning of Wonderland seemed both timely & interesting.

What's on your night table or book shelf this December?

Sweet Clover Barn December Sale

I think I first heard about

the Sweet Cover Vintage Barn Sales

at Lucketts a few years ago.

I have been wanting to visit there ever since.

They hold a sale once a month

on the third weekend of each month.

On a recent trip back from Washington DC

My husband & I stopped by

during the November sale.

It is a bit tricky to find, our car map

directed us to the parking lot

of a industrial park business!

Once we got out the old fashioned map

we went a bit further we found it.

They are holding their final sale for 2015

tomorrow thru Sunday 10-5.

 Outside was setup with this great vignette

of white furniture & accessories.

 Inside each booth was meticulously decorated

for Christmas.

I'm not going to comment on each photo, but

enjoy as we take a tour of just a few of the booths on

the first floor of the barn.

 Love the Blue & White!

 A second close to blue & white

is my love for brown transferware.

 There is a lot of furniture for sale if you are looking

for a special piece for

a holiday gift or yourself!

Keep in mind there is an entire 2nd floor
of goodness we did not visit!

Even if you are not in the Washington DC area,

 I hope you can add it to your shopping list if you ever are visiting.

In addition I hope these great booths gave you

 a few display ideas for your tabletop, vignettes or booth space!

As always I note the accessibility for those like me

that have limited mobility.

Ladies, it is a barn with a gravel parking lot.

Be prepared to park and walk, although we did

not have to park very far away, maybe 6 cars.
When leaving even more people were
arriving so the parking was getting further
away/and more limited.

I am not sure if there is a restroom onsite, but if not it would be

several miles to locate one from the way we came off the interstate

onto a state road and into the industrial park.

It was cool (my husband says cold) in the barn. 
I am always hot so it was great for me,

but if you are temperature sensitive plan accordingly, again it's a barn.

Please visit their website for 2016 sale dates
if you can't make it this weekend!
