Check Out Our Newest Vendor....So Talented!!!!

I just can't wait until we open so everyone can see all of the adorable things Teresa has made.  She is one talented lady!!  Everything she makes is "one of a kind".  Here is a peek...

 This is my favorite!  I love the push pins she created!!

 A box for treats and a hook for leash...makes for a happy pooch!!

 The chair was missing the seat so she used an old quilt and wove it into a new one!

 For hairbands, bows and clips...adorable!

 I just love this old piece of architectural salvage!

Coming Along

Everyone has been working so hard.  The construction crew framed in and installed double doors between the front and the garage.  Such a relief...I was so worried about the utility bill...having to air condition a garage when it is 108 degrees outside.  I feel so blessed to have Dewayne, Tyler and my friends who know how much opening this shop means to me, who are helping, praying and cheering me on.  God is good!!!

 

 Just have to paint when they finish up...I love the old doors Dewayne picked up at Habitat

Tyler, bless his heart...removed the ugly fish border and all the glue from the women's bathroom.

He has helped me so much!!!

Sneak Peek

Here is a peek at a few of the vintage things that have already been brought in.  It is just crazy that we have only had the keys for just over a week.  So much to be done and yet everything seems to be falling into place already.  God is good!!  I love that I live in a community where there are so many talented and passionate people and now I will get to be inspired by them every day...I'm still pinching myself! 

Working Hard!!!

I'm so proud, these guys have been working so hard!!!  There were four mirrors that had to be removed from it's former gym days.  

Sanding, Sanding and more sanding to get all of the glue off.  I think he like the power tools though!!

Ok, there is just some of the mirror.  Believe it or not, they did finish and I did get it painted but I was so tired I forgot to take a picture...

Here's the Future Home of Inspirations of Old

Here it is...our new shop location.  It is a 3,100 sq ft building in Historic Downtown Collinsville, OK. We got the keys last Sunday, July 15th and we have already begun working tirelessly getting everything ready.  I cannot tell you how excited and blessed I feel!!  This is a dream come true for me and I can't wait until we are open.  I want to thank everyone for all your kind words of support and advice.  We have already had so much interest and people just stopping by to welcome us to Main Street and that means more than you know.  

We are located on the corner of 10th and Main.

My Someday is Here

Well, it's been a while but, I am coming back with a Bang and Exciting News!!! Inspirations of Old is expanding into a storefront...3100 sq ft to be exact.  I feel so blessed that my passion is going to have a home and my "job" is going to be living my dream surrounded by all the things I love.  Who would have thought?  Just goes to show that if you keep dreaming and moving forward towards that dream anyway you can that one day, your "someday" will arrive.  


Inspirations of Old is scheduled to open in mid August.  The lease is signed but there is still a lot work to do to get ready.  I can't wait to share photos with you.  We will carry Antique's, Vintage, Country, Cottage, Industrial, Re Loved, Farmhouse, Rustic and Shabby Unique Finds.  We already have vendors sending in their pics and boy is there some great stuff.


We are located on the corner of 10th and Main in Collinsville, OK.  A perfect location with parking in the front and on the side.  There are some other great shops around us too.  If you are interested in booth space please email me and send some pics of what you have and I will send you an application.
