Country Charm and Culinary Delights in Buffalo (3 day sale)

Cottage-style homes are more than just houses; they're stories woven into the very fabric of their walls and gardens. They possess a timeless charm that evokes a sense of nostalgia and warmth.  Our client spent a lifetime searching for just the perfect vintage finds and country decor to create the lovely and curated home you will experience this weekend.

Our client was a professional baker, an art that transcends the simple act of preparing food. It's a beautiful symphony of senses and emotions. It is a creative outlet, which allows bakers to express themselves through flavors, textures, and stunning designs. Baking is a therapeutic practice and a powerful way to connect with others.  Baking transforms simple ingredients – flour, sugar, eggs, butter –  into something extraordinary.  Her sister, her companion and her best friend was a teddy bear aficionado and had a similar passion for collecting and surrounding herself with a curated collection of antiques. 

This sale has much to offer both the professional pâtissier and the the seasonal cookie baker (boy, do we have cookie cutters)! There are professional grade cake pans, trays etc. as well as catering and party supplies, tins and containers suitable for gift giving.  There is a library of baking, cooking, crafting, sewing and gardening books along with novels and reference books as well as sewing and crafting items
