Today I went back to where the window painting all started
Emingee's Fastnachts, Donuts, Ice Cream and Italian Ice
I heard one request "I want my tree back" from Mel. Who had loved a tree that I painted and survived many seasons on one of her windows.
After a little over a year it started to Crack, so I had to take it down. I gave her her tree branch back along with some floral framing around her signage.
I met Mel and Greg months before I inquired about painting for them the first time. My oldest worked for them and would always rave about how amazing they were to work for. Naturally, my family started spending more time there. She definitely had all the reason to boast how good of people they are.
They created an "Art corner" inspired by my youngest. A place where kids could grab paper, markers. They put a white board up for customers to doodle on as they came in.
They essentially donated 50 doughnuts for me to take to my church one Sunday morning.
Mel and Greg just have a way about them that make you feel welcomed and at home. All of their goodies are homemade. The best doughnuts around (no, seriously) right next to their apple crisp. All homemade ice-cream and Italian ice.
If you ever find yourself on the Hampton Circle, do yourself a favor and stop it. Especially with the hot weather FINALLY here. Emingees surely has what you need to cool off.
Thanks for looking!! ❤️🎨 🥰
