It was beautiful but the men didn't appreciate that it wasn't more traditional. One of my friends is a Mary Kay dealer and her white tree is decorated with many different styles of pink ornaments with clear lights. It is very pretty.Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12404589772713955710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-12912548587604936702012-09-10T20:23:05.336-05:002012-09-10T20:23:05.336-05:00We found a little store like that yesterday.

I don't think there is a line to draw to stop the Shiny Brites. Your one tree needs to be completely filled and then maybe you can get another tree to stand beside the big tree. Create a forest of trees with shiny brites. You had great garage sales this year. I stayed away from them this year. Chance probably can buy as many boxes of brites that he wants without getting yelled at for it.L.

They take up hardly any room at all! :) Do you display any of yours? And how?<br />Love the butter dish too. Now that was meant to be.

Maybe it's just as well that we work weekends in the summer, as now we can only hit a few at the beginning of the season, and the occasional Saturday that we take off work. Before we became full time market vendors, I was out there most Saturdays. After accumulating too much stuff, I did eventually learn to just buy something that I REALLY needed and had a good use for. <br />Although now Craigslist and the thrift stores when they have a sale can fill my 'need' quite nicely:)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-42353544723707275982012-09-10T08:41:21.219-05:002012-09-10T08:41:21.219-05:00Well darlin'...it would be a cryin' sin an...Well darlin'...it would be a cryin' sin and a half for you to pass up a great box of Shiny Brites!!!<br /><br />My Granny Walden had a butter dish just like that.
