Rust and Rags

The countdown has begun.
Soft opening is scheduled for September 3rd whether we are ready or not.

We are hiring. looking for someone 10-15 hrs per week. must be able to work afternoons and evenings until 7 and saturdays. Prefer someone who likes to be creative and likes vintage. PM us if interested.

My brother-in-law James is the Rust & Rags pimp. That looks good on him. I love all the fun clothes we have found.

A little lotion for your .......... Thank you Avon for this little nugget.

We find the craziest stuff in bulk boxes. Angry squirrel teapot.

Field trip today to the "bins". we had so much fun and found lots of good stuff.

Ok folks, Ray says the louvers are angled up and I say they are angled down. Who is right ?

We are putting everyone to work. Alesha's son is working hard and so is her dog Mindy. Well maybe Mindy is doing more supervising and Ray is putting my crazy ideas together.

It's getting there. Furniture and displays are moving in.

i spent the last month gathering for the new store. Now today is moving day. 2 trips with the U-haul truck and multiple trips in everyone's vehicles. It will be nice to have my garage back again. Now the real work begins. Making it all pretty for everyone to come shop.

the logo just wasn't right. so I added the truck. now it looks
complete.

Day 2 - hopefully the final coat of paint. the awful colors are gone!!!!
This man must really love me to sweat his butt off for 2 days doing this.....thank you Ray ❤️

Still lots of work to be done. these horrible colors have to go. all set for painting. And the new mascot just arrived from Michigan.

Today's the day. Keys in hand and now the work begins getting it ready. My sister is already shopping lol

Busy day getting ready for the new store. Picked up this beauty for a display. not sure what i'm going to use it for but I could not pass it up.

things are coming together. Found a great old refrigerator for a display. i think Dragonfly Jam might look good displayed in there.

Its official - I will be opening a new brick and mortar named Rust & Rags located at 4501 Southwestern Blvd in Hamburg (across from Tractor Supply). We will specialize in in vintage clothes, furniture and home decor, as well as handmade gifts. We will also have fun classes for ages and our Wednesday night live shopping nights will be back.
Target opening date is September 3, 2024.
I can't wait to see you all again - thanks, Lee Ann

so…… it's been pretty quiet on here lately. wonder what's going on?
I've either become a hoarder or something is brewing.🤔 Stay tuned for a big announcement!!!!!!

one hour until shopping time !!!

Almost ready for tomorrow night live shopping at 7 pm. The garage is all cleaned up and ready to go. I have 5+ shelves of stuff to clear out. Some great finds at wonderful prices so don't miss this on.

When you don't have a store anymore but you are still collecting junk. Intervention day.
