Colors of fall

I call this 55 original painted vanity... tequila sunrise!

Red agate with tiger eye

Sarah's latest poppy painting...

My new jewelry counter!

I was so excited when the phone rang the other day, and it was Bunny (yes, Bunny) calling to invite me to a house she was cleaning out-- if I could get there within15 minutes, I could have all the "junk" I wanted! This counter was smothered by layers old linoleum, but it was easily restored. I created the shelf on top with a walnut foot board and bed rails. What makes this even more special is that it was used in a print shop here in Millersburg, and on the drawer is a list of prices for local businesses including Maxwell letterhead which sold for $.93/100 sheets!

A cozy place to rest your head....


Log walls in the open loft at Crooked Creek Cabin create a warm atmosphere.


Did I tell you this cabin has 5 bedrooms?!!!

More Crooked Creek Cabin Shots

I absolutely love getting my hands in the dirt! The beds around the cabin were the perfect excuse for me to do just that!


The fire pit with picnic tables in the back yard is the perfect location for making gooey s'mores!

Thru Janet's Lens...

First-timer Janet Joehlin sent me these photos from her visit to 55 last week. The latest window display definitely gets folks attention as they walk in!

Salvage Central, located on the second floor, is a fun place to spend an hour or so digging around!




My messy sewing area even looks cool in this shot! Thanks for sharing these photos with us, Janet!

More quote portraits..

This fellow in the pimp hat is definitely my favorite of all the portraits I've painted!




Happy Birthday, Barbie!

funky stools

We have a great selection of chairs and stools that we have recovered in fun and funky fabrics.

window paintings



New antiques

Almost everyday we get something new (new to 55) and interesting into the store... This Danish modern dinette set will surely go quickly!


This piece, on the other hand, will have to wait for a special buyer. It's a birthing chair--yes, you're reading this correctly. What a great conversation piece!

55 for the nursery




This is a great example of my weird sense of humor...

chalk boards


I love the idea of "artful purpose"... our 55 original chalkboards are fun and colorful plus they have a purpose! Stop in and check out our complete collection!

Millersburg Crowns a Queen!

1st Official Honorary Queen for the Night, Mary Miller, of The Jewelry Store, was truly surprised when she was lured to the Hotel Millersburg before Girl's Night Out!
A large crowd waited in anticipation of the surprise ceremony.

Gypsy Sue read the proclamation which included many of the reasons that she was chosen. There were so many that it made our choice very easy!

Just like a queen... she was bossy within minutes. (hee hee)
