Spring is here at TLC!
By HELEN TREMAIN AND JANIS HUDSON,

Thanks to all those who shared in the Valentine’s Day and Easter goodies at the shop. It turned out to be a great fundraiser for us. Next year will be bigger and better. All the treats are homemade and delicious.

We have a new supply of Lake crafts and decor to spruce up your vacation abode. If you are vacationing with younger children stop in to see about our car games, covered notebooks for capturing memories, and a selection of throws for napping comfortably.

Easter is just around the corner.

Our ladies recently had a grand time putting together 80 Easter baskets. Come and shop for Easter baskets filled with holiday goodies, spring wreaths, table arrangements, and special gifts for your favorite family bunnies and friends.

We want to especially thank Dawn’s Place Cafe for displaying some of our crafts and Easter baskets. They are all about helping us help the Mcintosh community. We are also thankful for the Eufaula Chamber, LEA, and You’re So Beautiful salon for selling our Easter baskets.

On May 2 and 3 we will be having a large Spring garage sale and bake sale fundraiser. Also in May, we have Memorial Day coming. We are preparing to help honor your loved ones with made-to-order headstone pieces, wreaths, urn fillers, and other items that may suit your needs better. Let us know early what you may prefer.

We are located at 429098 Texanna Rd. in Eufaula, right across from Dawn’s Place Cafe.

Please come take a look at our shop. The selection is unique, and all items are handmade. Our shop hours are 103:30 Fri and Sat.
