Historic Downtown Millersburg sponsored Kids Night, and 55 offered free face painting. I had no idea that we would be bombarded with children for hours on end! Youngsters left 55 with their cheeks adorned with santas,snowflakes, and reindeer, and the gal above asked Sarah for a full kitten face! stefanie
55 West is located in what's locally known as the Maxwell Building. The long and short of it is that the Maxwell family built the structure in 1866 and operated their men's clothing store in the building until 2002. It was one of the oldest family-owned clothing stores in the USA!
This collection of retro holiday promotional posters makes me giggle--and hopefully you too!
55 West V.I.P., Robyn, called me this week looking for an unforgetable present for her husband's office white elephant gift exchange. Of course we had the perfect object! I always try to have at least one fun gag gift available amongst our diverse inventory! 
Robyn requested some special 55 wrapping so that she can theatrically unveil the piece! I can't wait to hear how it's received! stefanie
Just a few pieces left...
Holiday bath soap sets and candystriped votive cups make great stocking stuffers!
New and antique ornaments are all on sale throughout the store!
Big John "the weasel boy" Aubry once again gave a delightful reading of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" at our annual Holiday Soiree. Big J loves the holidays and can be heard most days singing carols at the top of his lungs throughout downtown Millersburg!
This large painting was inspired by a custom order-- very subtle compared to the things I usually do, eh?
Our crocheted rag rugs are a great gift for any age. The flannels are so cozy on your tootsies!
This frame originally held a mirror, but rather than replace it, I decided the aged back makes a perfect backdrop for this dogwood branch.
We still have plenty of funky furniture choices, too!!!
I must admit that I am having waaaaay too much fun recreating these portraits! This fellow even has a diamond nose ring and earrings... stef
I made Amish country tourist, Donna, pose in the front window 
My adorable nephew, Bryce, was thrilled when he caught a cheese head hat from the Guggisberg Cheese Parade float!
Yes, he's as ornery as he looks!!! stefanie
Who is Ellie? She is the beautiful new baby girl of Jamie, former 55 associate, and proud papa, Eric. I got to hold her for about 2 hours the other day as she dreamt and made precious baby gurgles. stefanie
