AS SEEN ON TV!!

Did you see the cute vintage aprons they showed recently on The Today Show, for just under $50??



'cause if you saw them, you owe it to yourself to come see the much better, more affordable, locally crafted vintage and retro aprons that recently arrived in The Market at Serendip.



We have vintage aprons sewn from a vintage pattern-- remember Grandma's feedsack-patterned apron? Becky Mannasmith has handsewn these nostalgic aprons in several fabrics, ideal for cookie-baking, cocktail serving, or preparing a big family dinner!



Lea Ann of Cherry Pie Threads has craftily stitched retro aprons to take you back to Donna Reed days... gingham with appliques, a coffee print, black and white-- do you want a malted milk with that cheeseburger?



Any of these aprons will make a great gift for Mom, wedding shower treat, housewarming present, or hostess gift. Come in and check them out!!

THIS JUST IN-- VINTAGE FURNITURE!!


The Market at Serendip is now home to some fantastic new-- well, actually, old-- furniture! We just received a fiberglass/resin patio set from the late 60's or early 70's; this set proves that everything old is new again, as it looks as contemporary as something from this century would!

We also have a brass and glass table set (coffee table and end tables) with vintage age but modern lines; and wait till you see the New Delhi chair, Thonet chairs rescued from a college library, vintage lamps, and the French patio set. There are too many items to mention, but plenty of great pieces to give your home that eclectic look... Wait till you see the fantastic iron triangle chair with zebra print seat!

SCIOTO HIGH SCHOOL SPRING ART SHOW


















If you weren't able to attend the Show on May 13, you really missed an amazing event. These talented student artists filled The Market with a wide variety of work-- everything from ceiling-hung sculpture to charcoal drawings to cartoons to a cut-paper cocktail dress to acrylics to watercolors; even a published book! The photos above are only a small sample...

It's quite humbling to see such poise, achievement, knowledge and talent these students exhibit at such a young age.
