Remember This?

OK, so maybe the Lady Norelco didn't sell yesterday. But that only meant it was around for our personal enjoyment today.

Below, see Paige modeling its use, along with the handy neck-hanging vanity mirror. Maybe we should sell these as a set?

Item of the Hour: Microcraft

You know what never goes out of style? Science.

That's what this is our featured item of the hour:


Not only is it a functioning microscope, but it comes with prepared specimen and a *really* cute retro case. My hypothesis is that this thing will sell soon!

Item of the Hour: Religious Paraphernilia


Hologram + Last Supper = Awesome Artwork! (Looks great on the mantle.)

Item of the Hour: Sweet Little Lamb

One of the Fritzi's staff has developed quite a collection of porcelain lamb figurines. For some reason they weren't a hot commodity yesterday, so we decided to make them our first featured item of the day:


So if you know anyone who's got a little one on the way and might need a theme for the nursery, this is a one-stop shop for you!

Day 2: Prefunction

One thing we learned yesterday was that it's not a good idea to start the day without having a substantial breakfast. Today we remedied that with the mother of all breakfast foods: Bacon!


It's a good thing we had that extra energy, too, because a whole new carload of items came in this morning. Come check out the new additions, including (but certainly not limited to):

shabby-chic furniture
vintage candle fixtures
vanity mirrors
bird-feeders

So come on down! The first 5 customers to arrive will receive one free piece of cooked-to-perfection bacon!

10829 5th Ave NE, open from 9-4

First Day Pics!

Great turnout yesterday and REFRESHED INVENTORY today! Join us from 9-4 - 10829 12th Ave NE.
See you there.

Featured Item of the Hour: Lady Norelco

Face it, ladies. We've all got some unsightly facial hair.

But have no fear: we have your solution: The Lady Norleco!



This state-of-the-art (well, in 1970, at least) razor with 2 spinning blades, cleaning brush, and satin-lined carrying case, is just what the barber ordered.

This one's going to go fast--hurry while it's still here!

Sale 1, Day 1!

Things are in full swing here, people!

We have decided to institute a "Featured Item of the Hour" program. Our first item is two-fold:

1. For the ladies, we have a wide selection of wet scarves (but they're clean, thanks to the rain).

2. For you fellas, please come see our Make-Your-Own-Tie kit:



It comes complete with pattern *and* some lovely polyester fabric. It's enough for approximately 27 ties. Make some for all your friends!

Thanks to everyone who has come out despite the weather! The crystal ball predicts nothing but sun for Day 2.

Fabric Bunting!

I've been making these cute fabric buntings. Some are made from menswear fabric (rescued from the dumpster).


And the others made from a stash of vintage fabrics from my auntie chris. There are blues...
yellows...

and pinks.
All are 6' long and can be used for parties (think kids' birthdays or baby showers), home decor, or whatever you fancy!
