Greetings from Bucketville: Home of the Blossom Bucketeers!
Blossom Bucket, Inc. has been serving the retail industry for over 20 years, providing diverse and much-loved collections of primitive folk art, holiday creations, and general gifts. Now, we are looking forward to serving you!
The signs are everywhere… Spring fever is here! These little kitties by Suzi Skoglund are definitely ready, and so am I!
To remind us all that we are not waiting in vain, here’s a quote of the day for spring.
“Every year hath its winter,
Every year its rain—
But a day is always coming
When the birds go north again.”
-Ella W. Higginson
I found this quote that I thought would be perfect for the camping collection designed by Barbara Lloyd that begins shipping this March!
“Do not go where the path may lead.
Go instead where there is no path
and leave a trail.”
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Have a great weekend!
Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.
-John Updike
Have a great weekend!
P.S. Click the photo for more information on this product – it will be in stores soon!
Yes; you did read that correctly. There are only 39 shopping days left until Christmas, and that’s assuming that stores will be open on Thanksgiving day, though many retailers will not be.
Even if you’re doing your shopping online, it’s not as much time as it sounds like when you begin to factor in shipping times.
I hope everyone has made their lists, checked them twice, and is ready to get out there and wrap up their holiday buying! Or, in some cases, start their holiday buying!
Good luck!
How is your progress? Just getting started? Just finishing up? Or maybe somewhere in between? Share your stories!
A quote of the day that I thought would be just right for this time of year!
“Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.”
-W.T. Purkiser
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
It has been an incredible day in Bucketville! The air was crisp and breezy, but the sun was shining brightly; a fabulous fall day!
We had an amazing turnout for day one of our Warehouse Sale. Today and Friday are vendor-only shopping days, and in addition to retailers from all over Ohio, we also had vendors from West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and more! (more…)
Welcome to November!
It’s hard to believe that there’s only 2 more months of 2009, then it’s full steam ahead into a brand new year! Here’s a bit of inspiration to get us through the very busy up-coming holiday season, and sometimes bleak winter months!
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.
On Friday, October 30th, Bucketville was graced with a gorgeous autumn sunrise that we just had to share! Thank you very much to Dawn, who captured this incredible view for us! (more…)
Here’s a quote of the day that I just couldn’t pass up. For those of you who’re watching the World Series, I think you’ll be able to relate! It’s just perfect for this time of year, and too true!
“[Baseball] breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops, and leaves you to face the fall alone.”
-A. Bartlett Giamatti
From The Green Fields of the Mind
Thank goodness we’ve got football, basketball, and hockey to get through those bleak winter months!
Good luck to all of your teams, and have a great weekend!
Don’t forget all of the sweet people in your life today!
Here’s a short quote that we thought would be perfect for today:
“That best portion of a good man’s life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts
Of kindness and love.”

Blossom Bucket, Inc. wishes you a happy Sweetest Day, and a wonderful weekend!
