Christmas at Leola's

Last weekend
Leola's Vintage Home and Garden
in Ozark, Missouri
held their always wonderful Christmas Open House.

Enjoy!
(remember to click twice on the photo to "biggify")




















































Today is Silver Sunday over at
The Gypsy Fish Journal
so here are a few vignettes from the Open House
that featured vintage silver.





I just scratched the surface with these photos.
There were so many people there I could hardly get my camera up for the shot!
I was there yesterday and they are bringing in more fun merchandise
so there is still plenty to see and buy.

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend,

love,
Debra

    Leola's would be the first stop on my Christmas shopping. Of course, I would probably buy a lot of gifts for myself! I just love everything, Debra, and the Christmas decor is spectacular!

    Have a great Sunday!

    Looks good!
    And I know it's got to be hard getting the camera up high enough to shoot over everyone's heads....you are, after all, only three feet tall. ;-)

    XOXO,
    Me

    Oh Debra, I remember you taking us to Leola's before, and I love this place! I saw so many things I would love...like that awesome white suitcase with the lace on it. What an amazing thing.
    I also LOVED my visit to your beautiful sunporch. I always do you know! You have decorated so lovely for Autumn and Thanksgiving. And all the pictures are gorgeous.
    Thank you Debra for your sweet message to me on my last post. It means all the more coming from you!
    hugs

    Thanks so much for your wonderful pictures of Leola's. Love especially that so many of the objects in your pictures are gone -- but have been replaced with more wonderful things. It was so good to see you yesterday & I'll call this week & get your expert help with my blog. And you are not 3 ft. tall; you have to be at least 4' 2". Jan

    I've only been to Ozark MO once, probably ten years ago- and I thought the shopping was great- so why in the world haven't I gone back? It looks like I'm missing out on a whole bunch of vintage goodness.

Not only did I get to go to the fabulous Leola's for their Christmas open house but I bought the adorable large white dollhouse with the green roof that you have pictured!! It was so fun to see it on your blog! Now it's all comfy and cozy in my home! I'll be showing it on my blog when I do my Christmas home tour...please come by and see! You are just so darling and so is your blog! I would love to catch up with you sometime! Blessings sugar!
