    Loved the tour. Thanks so much for sharing. Your lake is lovely. It looks so peaceful and serene. And 950 hand crafted items! Wowzer - many of us wouldn’t reach that number in a whole lifetime! Blessings to you, Christine. You’re one in a million! 💕

    Thank you for showing us around. I really like the way so many Victorian country towns have that lovely green area with trees in the middle of the main street. If we ever get out your way again, I will definitely stop into your shop and say hello.

    I love browsing around in shops like you have. There is always something there that you "need", or a memory you forgot about. And I'll bet the soaps smell divinely! And thank you for the tour of your lovely little town.

    What a wonderful little town. It reminds me of the town where we vacationed at. There were 2 roads in town. We chose this resort because it was family friendly, meaning our little ones were welcome. Not all resorts are quite so accepting of little ones. A picture of my girls was next to the description of the resort! The two older girls, each 4 years old, and the youngest, in her diaper, were outside our cabin holding up their catch of the day. They were quite proud of their fish. They could bait their hooks, cast, catch and land their fish, and usually get the hook out, and sitting in the boat. The resort owners loved them running all over, and visiting each evening for their treats, if they had a good day. There were towns this size scattered around the area, most geared towards tourism. 😊❤

    Oh Christine what a wonderful shop you guys have. I love how you have it organized. The little tour of your town was so sweet. It reminds me of our town, we have only one stop light as well. One small grocery and two gas stations and a hardware...woohoo. Sincerely thank you for the videos, Australia has always been so interesting to me. It's hard to believe tomorrow here is the first day of spring for us, it's been a very cold and wet winter in Indiana. Looking forward to seeing your next video.

    Oh my goodness, how it has changed since i was a kid. We as a family had our caravan there for many years, travel there every weekend and school holidays, where the new slides and and water park area is used to be the caravan park and a metal slide with a little pier on either side. We as kids used to swim across it and burn our bums on the metal slide….i used to get up early and go fishing by myself….and then sometimes us kids would walk into town and get ice creams….we actually found our house in Murchison from one of the real estate agents in town…oh you have bought back so many wonderful childhood memories of this beautiful town of Nagambie….thank you xxx

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs
      @ChristinesHomeAffairs  Год назад

      That's so wonderful Tracey. Unfortunately the caravan park was decimated in the floods back in October. It is having a full rebuild and won't be in operation until mid year😀

    Such a cute little shop. Those 1800 books would go nicely in my junk journal stash. I love that you have incorporated your handmade goods into your little store. If I wasn't a five hour drive from you I'd be down here in a flash. This place reminds me of my home town. Thank you for giving us a tour of your town.

    I've visited Nagambie 3 times on my way to and from Melbourne from Mackay, Cent Qld and love it.
    Nagambie has the oldest, family owned winery in Victoria.
    Also, the home of one the the founders of Grass Roots magazine fame. Meg.
    Well worth calling in off the Hume Hwy. 😁

    What a lovely shoppe! I'll definitely try to get up there the next time I'm in Melbourne. I'll bring some fabric with me from Chicago. It's cold here, currently -7C with some snow that came overnight and that will melt in a few hours when the temps rise again. I love your town, reminds me of where I grew up. There were 2 street lights, a grocery store and a Mom/Pop drug store and a hardware store. Thank you for the tours.

    I appreciate how you arranged your china cabinets. When I walk into thrift shops where everything is jumbled and helter-skelter, I feel very uncomfortable and can’t wait to get out. About the large, 9-block(?) bag at the front of your store: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Beautiful, colorful, festive without being over the top. I’d have snatched that as soon as I walked in, price notwithstanding.❤

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs
      @ChristinesHomeAffairs  Год назад +1

    @vikkirountoit497 Год назад

    What an awesome shop! This is exactly the place my hubby and I would both love to visit. It's the only kind of place we would ever come out of retirement to work at, so I'm lucky there isn't one as perfect as this near me. Every time we are out and about we shop and hubby comes home with interesting tools for his collection which he then refurbishes and enjoys. He also picks up ewaste and does his best to repair and then we donate. I'm a messy sewer too, so my space would look a lot like yours but with a less useful sewing machine! I'm glad you have found such a cool niche that works for you both. Best wishes for continued success and joy! I had guessed 1500, so I was a bit over:) What a lovely town and lake!

    • @ChristinesHomeAffairs
      @ChristinesHomeAffairs  Год назад +1

      Haha, I thought I might only have about 300. It was quite a shock to count 950.
      Chris and I don't feel like we're working, or that we even have jobs. It's a nice mindset to have, and we have loads of fun with our customers🙂

My brother emigrated about 4 years ago to marry his long time love, 35 years after leaving school! He’s only 200kms away in Wodonga and that’s not very far in your vast country.

      Hoping that won't be too long now Gayle. We had hoped it would open by Easter, but it looks like mid year now😀
