Color, color, color

During the time of year when the snow begins to disappear, walking through 101 Market the one thing everyone is sure to notice is all the color. The new items painted with bright greens, yellows, pinks and blues, set the mood for the playful spring to come. Bee detailed glassware, fluffy bunny figurines and glittery butterflies ready to fly are proof of the very life spring will possess. While shopping the colorful world, one might forget we are still buried in snow. But don’t fret; just bring the season to your home and splash some color on the winter blues.

Keeping in good spirits

A person cannot go a day without hearing news about the horrible economy, which makes it hard to see any light at the end of the tunnel. Surrounding yourself with positivity just might be the key to keeping up good spirits in such hardship times.

Words we read impact on how we live our lives, what we expect from the day, and how we view ourselves and others. Phrases motive us and sayings captivate us. Become your own philosopher, get insightful and spread encouraging words all around you.

Be creative; think beyond the yellow sticky note pad and white erase boards. Fill your home with wall art containing quotes from well-known people like Opera, Marilyn Monroe and Kathryn Hepburn; pictures of your family and friends in frames painted with phrases of togetherness; metal signs of single words like bless and laugh. Go beyond and accessorize your yard with decorative rocks engraved with inspirational messages and silly expressions. Customize your car with Driving Reflections, a collection of inspiring words in an array of categories for those on the go.

101 Market is filled with items to keep your spirits high and those of the ones you love. With a vast variety of pieces, ranging in ever color, price and size, there is something for everyone.

Wedding Fair at the Crown Room

What a fun day! The Wedding Fair at the Crown Room in Rogers was so much fun! It was great to see the crew from CMWA and the Brides and Grooms. Gina (the gal in charge) did a fabulous job, her attention to detail is incredible. I will have pictures on the website soon! It was a very cold day for flowers but all in all every thing held up to the weather and looked beautiful. I am looking forward to a great wedding season in 09', if you are looking for a florist leave a comment or give us a call. I would love to talk to you.
