I wonder how many of you remember these items. The older generation will remember these square compact powder and Florida Water in bottles.
The fragrant Florida water is soothing and has antiseptic properties. Helps prevent heatstroke, heat, baby's prickly heat, mosquito bites and etc.

  7. What a wonderful shop! My favorite things are the Santa aprons and pillows! Those long doggie bolsters gave me an idea. If they were longer one could use them as draft stoppers under doors in winter. It was such a lovely shop and thank you for taking us inside for a nice look see!
