Putting The Marketplace on "Hold"

Hi Everyone, if you've read my posts last week, you'll know that this is the last "Marketplace"... at least for awhile. I've had some cardiovascular problems that have been ongoing for a while and now it looks as if I will be needing to take the summer off to have open heart surgery. I'm not closing down my blog, but I will be blogging when I can, and letting you all know what is happening. We are in the last few weeks of having our house ready to put on the market, and then I'll be having out of town doctor appointments... so our lives are definitely in "transition". If you'd like to know the details then click here.
I want to thank each of you that participate each week in coming by to share your wonderful goods, and also equally important, those of you who come to browse and shop. I hope this party has brought you many new visitors, and sales. My concept in starting this linky party, was a way to bring more attention to the talented shop owners who often get lost in a sea of Etsy sellers.

Thanks to all you faithful linkers, I've really enjoyed seeing all your wonderful items and browsing your shops!! Here are just a few things I picked from last week to share:


Mademoiselle Tresors
Transferware Set
Vintage 541




Green Vintage Mesh Shelf
Distressed Donna


thanks so much, gals!

Debbi from Marionberry Cottage gave me the link to The Friday Flea which is the same kind of link party, so be sure to watch for it later this week, looks like fun!




Hope you have a wonderful summer!

    I was not aware of your marketplace here but I am starting one on my blog that is similar for the same reasons. So if your readers want to hop on over to Hob Nobbers they can share their goodies there. I DO wish you well with your health issues and will keep you in my prayers. Love your blog!

    So sorry to read about your health issues, praying for a quick recovery! Thanks so much for all you have done in hosting this link party. I didn't always remember to come by but when I did, I thought it was great!!!! Hopefully you will be able to resume in the fall. Best to you and may God bless you and your family during your trials.

    Debra, I haven't been blogging much and I had no idea what has been going on with you. My heart goes out to you. I pray that you will find a buyer really fast and that the team of doctors will know exactly what to do for you. And, then I hope recovery is fast so you can begin to make your new home special.
    Know that you are in my prayers. Rhonda

    Debra, Ruth of White Whimsy let me know of your health issues and I am so glad she did. I wanted to let you know how very sorry I am to hear of your obstacles. I have always thought so highly of you as a blogger and your helpfulness to Ruth and I has always been so kind. I will be paying closer attention now and waiting for good news from you. You are in my prayers of thankfulness and for healing of your physical body. May your spiritual being soar above all that comes. God bless.

    Debra - Where will you have your surgery? Will be praying for you, your doctors and the nurses taking care of you. Also, your husband. This has to be really hard for him also, Take your time and regain your health and keep us posted, OK?

    Blessings to you,

    Hi Debra! It's hard letting go of things and it's hard work getting a house ready to sale! I will be praying the Lord will send you a buyer quickly and you can get the sale of your house behind you. You take care of yourself and you're in my prayers.
    Blessings,

    I know the one whom holds your hand. . .and He is able to keep you.
    Fondly,
    Pat
