We have expanded our paint offerings to include the buttermilk paint reproduction colours from Old Village Paint Company. These clearly demonstrate the ingenuity of Early American painters and stainers. It is well documented that buttermilk and other milk products were used for the decoration of furniture and housing of old. The traveling painter turned to an old country custom of using farm products. earth colors and brick dust to make their paint colours. Old Village has reproduced these products using modern raw materials. They have kept the spirit of the Colonial American Craftsman in producing these paints with which to achieve the lovely effects and colours of Pre-Revolution America. Buttermilk paint may be used on interiors of homes and drys to a beautiful matte finish which does not destroy the texture of the wood. Multiple coats will build a longer lasting and a more opaque film. Stop by soon to discuss this fabulous product with Kevin. He is sure to help with your home decor project.

Sometimes we just forget or simply do not realize how much labor goes into running our own business. This is a statement shared with us from a fellow retailer now the founder of The 3/50 Project. As the owners of our independent businesses we wear so many caps of responsibility and the buck always ends on our shoulders. We all start our own businesses confidently knowing that we can do it better than the other guys. We take great pride in carving out our niche in our market place. Not only do we strive to offer the most comprehensive knowledge of our products but we also strive to offer the best value of the goods and services we provide. Quality is job one as Ford Motor Company has said before. Our primary responsibility is to our customer and their needs, wants and desires. Helping them achieve the impossible sometimes is our greatest reward. Reminding them that we are just as important to them as they are to us is a trust we must earn with every transaction. As we work towards restoring a stronger community bond between us all the attention to detail and the smile on our faces are the advantages over the on-line alternatives . Thank goodness for The 3/50 Project to remind us of these simple and effective practices. For after the long day and week we still find our greatest reward is being part of our community and being able to turn the key on our own business.
A simple idea with multiple effects and multiple tentacles of impact. Besides the financial health of our community, locally-owned businesses provide character, prosperity and well-being to the many other organizations in our town. Keeping the dollars, decision making & jobs local help build a better infrastructure for our town to prosper. Innovation with self pride fuels the enthusiasm of new ideas and expansion of entrepreneurial ideas and product diversification. Locally-owned businesses also lower the cost of public services and environmental impacts by not demanding more from the public servants of our community. More local small businesses also create a more competitive and cooperative marketplace which is fun for our neighbors and customers. So Good Buy Local or Good Bye Local.
