Another weekend of hunting for the crystal squirrels. This time we ventured farther than ever before. It was a land called Eastern North Carolina. It was an adventure to say the least. It started with a trip through Rocky Mount onward to Williamston then Edenton and ending in Elizabeth City. Keels and I treated ourselves to a gourmet meal of Little Caesar's and Fruit by the Foot.
We found a few good finds at a local thrift store conveniently located next to the Little Caesar's. Then we headed home. Lucky for us, it was daytime and we got to see all of the things we missed in the dark the night before. We made a pit stop in Tarboro and thankfully it was September 26th, Historic Day in Tarboro. Not sure what the ship had to do with the Civil War, but maybe I'm just not up on my history.
We spent Saturday night like true businesswomen, sewing and planning our future endeavor. We decided one more trip to the flea market was necessary. It is going to be closed for a month while the State Fair takes over. I found this cute little metal UNC box that I managed to buy for $4 from a man with a missing tooth.
We didn't buy anything else that day but we got some good ideas about our next step in the business plan. We made our weekly trip to Michael's to get some paint and inspiration. We got more than we could have dreamed of. We stumbled upon our new (possibly temporary, maybe permanent) logo. Say hello to the Crystal Squirrel.
And here is one of the product offerings that the Crystal Squirrel has for you. One side is a men's shirt and the other is a t-shirt. holler!

Wow! Love this stuff...but are you guys really going to be able to part with it? I see you guys deciding at the last minute that you can't give up this stuff that you've spent so much time looking for, acquiring from all kinds of interesting people, taking it home making it your own, etc. and instead hanging onto it and living together in a really crowded/cluttered house...that would be great!
