we are family.....

{Salvage Sister Heather}
 We had an INCREDIBLE first weekend at Salvage Sisters.  A BIG thank you to our awesome customers who seemingly will follow us anywhere, park and walk a mile to get to us and no matter how many times we move, will show up on our first day with a smile. IT AMAZES AND HUMBLES US!

 Part of the mission of Salvage Sisters was to be able to have more family time.  I have so enjoyed the many hours spent working with my mom and Hannah preparing for our first show....laughing A LOT, fighting, arguing, all the wonderful things that families do!  One of my brothers and  my brother-in-law, his brother and my husband worked for free, loading and carrying furniture. My sister-in-law, Amy worked SOOO hard for two days straight while my youngest brother kept the kids.  I love being surrounded by my nieces and nephews....it gives me so much joy to hear them running around the shop together.

 Hannah, the younger and much more organized Salvage Sister, kept things running in an orderly fashion while my scattered brain tried to remember how to use the cash register and what time we opened.

 We knew that we needed to make the equivalent of a month's income in two short days, and we met and exceeded it!

She would have been proud of us. She was the original SS...couldn't pass up
good junk for anything!}
 Thank you all, customers, family and friends who have supported us from day one...we love you!
A big thank you to our dear friends, Jennifer and her son Nathaneal who worked so hard all weekend and to Candace and Bill who came and sold their awesome Junkie Paint which was a BIG hit and will be available at our next show FOR SURE!
See you in February!
