I was overwhelmed. There's no way I can even begin to show you the magic--but I'll try. These reindeer on your mantel? Get there early! This purse--a beauty! Need I say more? How about these bracelets? Have you ever seen such a display? Get there early! This ornament belongs at the top of your Christmas tree. How about these pins? I love the teapot. Get there early! This amazing display of village houses (each comes with it's own light) stretches all the way across the bookshelves. Look for the post office. You'll love it!
The Turnabout Shop is located in El Cerrito, California, at 10052 San Pablo Avenue—our telephone number is 510-525-7844. We are open Wednesday through Saturday from noon to four. The shop has a very interesting background and I plan to devote one of my upcoming blogs to that history. I was born in Minnesota in 1933, moved to Wisconsin with my family in my twenties, collected a Bachelor of Science degree in Childhood Education, left for California for a teaching job and met my husband. We have been married for 47 years and have two sons and two grandsons, age six and a half and almost three. I love thrift stores. Where else could you find a grotesque Paper Mache mask with weird decorations? Weird can be wonderful! This one nearly caused a divorce: "Either that goes or you go!" We have a dog—an Akita mix called Plato—named for the philosopher. He is a very bright dog. I still have family in Wisconsin and the memories of a wonderful brother who I'm grieving. Take some time out of your busy day and come visit me.
