Twinkle Night 101...



For those who haven't joined us for 
Twinkle Night, let me give you a quick 
course on what it's all about! 
 ***

twinkle night... 101

Twinkle Night is an evening to celebrate 
     & share in the Spirit of the Season!                           Monday, December 2nd 5:30 - 8:30

It is a combination of a 
customer appreciation & a charity event!
We deck the store in her best winter attire... 
twinkling lights & a dusting of snow! 

The festivities begin @ 5:30 and the shuffle into 
the store begins! If we are lucky enough 
to have fair, winter weather the line 
to get in our little bit of a shop may be long! 
(one never knows! ... just want to give you fair warning!) 
Wear your woolens & bring your patience...
just incase! 

You'll find treats & spirits under the 
tin roof inside the "SToP".
 We'll have the cocoa hot & a campfire 
to keep you toasty! 

We offer raffle tickets for sell, for a chance 
to win prizes donated by 
The Whistle Stop & a few elves! 
The proceeds of the raffles will be donated 
to a local family, making their 
holidays a little brighter!   

  The tickets are $1.00 each or 6 for $5.00. 
The grand prize ticket is $20.00 for a chance to 
win one of the "mr."  Rescued Furniture pieces!
(He hasn't even showed me what piece!) 
We will draw the winning tickets 
@ the end of the evening! 

There will be door prizes too! 
#1... if you have a star on your receipt 
you win a door prize!
#2... find a lucky twinkling star hidden 
in the shop, you win a door prize! 
#3... sign up... you'll be entered for a chance to win! 
20 door prizes in all!
Celebrating our 20 years in business! 

 'Tis the season to twinkle!

It Rocked... We Rocked...

JUNKSTOCK! 


If you have never been 
to Junkstock... you're 
missing out! It's worth the
drive! Peace, junk, food, music
great people, old dairy farm
in the middle of the city,
pet friendly! 


Junkstock's owner, Sara
always has over the top
ideas to create a great
atmosphere @ Junkstock!





Our booth @ Junkstock... aka the "coop"
An old chicken coop on this 100 year old farm
became our home away from home for the weekend!
It was so much fun to display in! 

Here are some photos from some of my favorite
displays & finds! 














Although we weren't over the 
top stuffed w/ goods we filled 
every corner of the coop!




 And went home with just... 
 a desk, a few chairs & a handful of smalls! 

To Sara who puts on Junkstock,
the wonderful vendors that are 
family for the weekend & the customers
that came in groves, 
thank you for Rockin' our weekend!  

See you next year
JUNKSTOCK!
