Lucky You Philly Home Show Giveaway!

Tomorrow marks the start of the second and final weekend of the Clover Market Popup at the Philly Home Show and to mark the occasion we are doing a MASSIVE giveaway.

Forget this crazy snow hysteria!  We'll be warm and cozy inside the PA Convention Center from 10-9 on Saturday and 10-6 on Sunday.   Heck, you can take the train right to the Center and walk right across the street for some yummy treats at the Reading Terminal Market.

No purchase is necessary, but good luck getting through all of these vintage and handmade goodies without picking up just a little something, too.  Hope to see you there!

With just over a week left to the upcoming popup at the Philadelphia Home Show, we are all working hard to get ready for you.  Our sellers are gathering and sourcing their loveliest vintage goodies and our artists and crafters are reviewing their inventory and making new pieces just for the show.  

We have a terrific assortment of vintage goodies, affordable original art, one-of-a-kind handmade pieces, jewelry (antique and newly handmade) and repurposed creations of all kinds (clothing, furniture, and accessories).  Don't forget to check out our list of confirmed sellers by clicking on the "Home Show" icon above.  A lovely day of retail therapy awaits you!

Home Show Visuals

After wrestling with Blogger for a few hours last night, I finally got all of the pictures posted for the Philadelphia Home Show participants.  You may notice a little bit of distortion going on with some of the images depending their original size and orientation (may be time for that tech-savvy intern), but you'll get the idea of the sheer amount of fabulousness in store.  Check 'em all out by clicking here or on the "Home Show" tab above.  Here are a few of my favorite pics:
