Old House Parts Company Summer 2010 Newsletter

~ Hello All, Happy Labor Day ~

We hope this newsletter finds everyone enjoying the last lazy days of summer, and that you have all enjoyed great summer adventures. Our "end of recession" sale is still happening -- all stained glass windows and doors are 20% off.

Old House Parts on You Tube!Old House Parts is on TV!! The show, which is part of the Local Discovery series, travels to Kennebunk, and the host, Kristin Martin, talks business with me. The show is airing on Channel 12 (CW) and Channel 3 (WPME), as well as on Kennebunk's local access channel. We think that the final product looks great, and encourage you to watch it for an inside look of the OHP freight house. The episode can also be viewed on YouTube by searching "Old house parts."

Sale TentA new addition to the freight house is the creation of a "Sale Tent," which can be found just to the right of the main entrance under "of course" a rusty tin roof. Customers have been scouring the tent for treasures small and large and we have already said goodbye to quite a few items. The tent features a rotating selection of antique oddities, marked with great prices. I have ideas to keep the space open during the winter by heating the area with old cast iron -wood burning- stove, always a great choice for the smell of Maine!

Kentucky Mantel Kentucky Mantel
Our latest greatest acquisition was acquired on trip I made to Kentucky to get three mantels from the former home of Dr. Lindsey Powell in Lincoln County! The most spectacular is a beautiful early Kentucky mantle dating from 1799. The finish has been restored to its magnificent original state, and it's a true treasure. Along with these, we have collected much new amazing inventory, and the store is looking great.
The Enjoy at Pemaquid The Enjoy at PemaquidWhile keeping the store in awesome standing for our customers, we have definitely enjoyed the summer weather! We took some time to enjoy the beautiful Maine scenery. We traveled on Enjoy (my houseboat handcrafted from old house parts) to Sebago Lake, Casco Bay, and took a meandering trip from Bath to Pemaquid, Maine. The greatest benefit of these trips, are not simply the amazing sights, and quaint towns and islands, but especially the inspiring people we meet on our Enjoy-ing travels. The houseboat generates smiles and much interest, and it's great to meet new people, and visit with old friends and customers.
