on a trip to Kenora and Longbow Lake
yesterday, this little Deer just sat and waited for his picture to be taken on the old number1 hwy.
I feel so much safer on these old back-roads as the trans-Canada is so congested with truckers now that the railway is not hauling to smaller destinations.

We stopped at an antiques store.
Junktion Antiques Hwy 17 just a few miles east of Kenora but before the bypass so you must go through town to get there.

The proprietor's name is Phil and his number is 807-466-1640.
I found a filing case similar to this and I am hoping to acquire it for storing all the collage and crafting items I am bringing to the shop.

new look for the shop

vintage Harequin Romance Novels

I don't know how they can call these novels but they sure are novelties.
I have two boxes of vintage ones from the fifties.
I always thought if I had a cabin they would be fun to have on on display because I imagine that is were people might read such trashy stuff.
They are not trashy as in content they are actually quite strict in the moral sense.
Harlequin romance cover art holds its own appeal for fictional romance enthusiasts. The visual of the brawny hero and his damsel in distress has become synonymous with the Harlequin brand; in fact, collectors eagerly seek out vintage Harlequin cover art in a nod to the birth of a brand. While the Harlequin novel covers have gradually changed throughout the years to reflect a more modern audience, the cover art is still just as meticulously created as it was at its inception.

sweet girl on a longboard skateboard Tony Hawk

this wee girl came in on her skateboard and scored these connie francis
and nancy sinatra albums.
I don't think they were ever played.
how fun for her I am so amazed by the young groovy hipsters who love this old music.
she is also taking swing dancing so maybe she will be doing some groovy dance moves like Tony Hawk?

I hope it does not scare any of the old ladies away.

website coming

I am so excited to share this great news. Several of my long time and also new customers are wanting to invest in the icandy shop.
seeing as the place is so small I have decided to add a garage workspace to the back to give classes and I will let the gals do their thing up front.
I hired workers to clean my garage and organize some stuff to get ready for the website which we will be launching in the near future.
so far we have over 25 boxes filled with jewelery, old watch parts,flash cards vintage kids books, old letters, stamps, comics,labeled drawers about 3 inches high for small things like tickets & coupons, foreign currency, games pieces (several of these sorted by specific games),old bakelite majong and vintage type from the days of the Gutenberg press, plastic charms, metal charms, small toys/miniatures, wire, ribbon & string, metal pieces, keys, small medicine bottles, blocks, vintage labels, small tins, playing cards, and dozens of decks of tarot cards. old maps...hundreds of these. bells ,cracker jack toys
Maps, sheet music and vintage magazines & ledgers Images torn from books and magazines such as terrestrial, celestial, scientific, medical, foreign text, fish, mammals, insects, people, architectural

this is stuff I have collected for years to make assemblage art with but that is never going to happen so it it time to quit hoarding and pass it along to people who can use and enjoy
I will start to post some pictures soon and have a pre-sale also.
cheers and keep looking.
ps I already have the garage I am now looking for some way to move it to Rathgar.
