Do you know the names of the original 10 CareBears?
Each Care Bear is a different colour or shade and has a unique image on their stomach (referred to in various media as a “belly badge” or “tummy symbol”) that represents their personality. In addition to the Care Bear family are the “Care Bear Cousins”, which feature Brave Heart Lion, Cozy Heart Penguin, Bright Heart Raccoon, Lotsa Heart Elephant, Gentle Heart Lamb, Loyal Heart Dog, Playful Heart Monkey, Proud Heart Cat, Swift Heart Rabbit, Treat Heart Pig and Noble Heart Horse created in the same style as the Care Bears.
The 10 original Care Bears consist of Bedtime Bear, Birthday Bear, Cheer Bear, Friend Bear, Funshine Bear, Good Luck Bear, Grumpy Bear, Love-a-Lot Bear, Tenderheart Bear, and Wish Bear. Later on, additional bears joined them, as well as the Cousins. from Wikipedia
The Holidays are here. This week we wish you a Safe and Beautiful Thanksgiving Celebration filled with Gratitude! And don’t forget, we’re here and we’re watchin’ for ya! Stop by and browse to find that special treasure for the season.
Just a couple days ago we mentioned dinner gatherings, casual and more formal. So it’s important to add this quick post that highlights an amazing Spode dinner set that we just received in our store. It’s from their “The Cabinet Collection” and features the Sheraton pattern, (c)1800. This pattern seems to be quite rare and we’ve seen only a few pieces listed on replacement sites.
The Sheraton pattern by Spode is simply beautiful. Although it’s fine china, it also has a bit of country flair. We think it would fit most any decor. The complete collection is a service for 12 and many duplicate servicing pieces. George would be willing to make it a single serving or 2, 4, 6, or 8 if you desired. Maybe you have this pattern and need a serving piece! Stop in and talk with George. See how you might add this to your table!
If you’re ready to add a beautiful dinner setting (yes, we encourage mixing and matching as well), to your holiday dining, stop in and browse our collections.
Remember, your manner of entertaining family and friends is totally individual! No matter whether it’s formal dining or a casual ‘grab your plate and visit a buffet’ setting, we can help you add a bit of pizzazz!
Stop in soon and take a peek at this stunning set of Spode dishware in the unique Sheraton pattern. You know we’re here and, yep, we’re watchin’ for ya!
The holidays are upon us and it’s time to add a wee bit of bling to your holiday outfits! Of course, these wonderful costume jewelry pieces make excellent gifts as well.

We encourage you to stop in and see this amazing jewelry collection for yourself. Then find the perfect piece to finish your holiday outfit or to give as a gift – or BOTH!!!
It may be true that formal dinner parties have become passé, becoming more casual – sharing rather than ‘entertaining’ with friends and family. The holidays offer us a great reason to open our homes to a gathering – fancy or casual.
To create a welcoming atmosphere, consider your goal. Yes, you can create a formal, fine-dining, event. But you can also create a 70s-style casual gathering – come on in, sit anywhere, bring a dish to share, and … well, just enjoy!
No matter your style, at Bahoukas Antique Mall we have a variety of glassware, serving pieces, and dishes to suit every need – casual to formal. Remember, nowadays there is no need to match everything – mix and match is in. So instead of fretting over a dinner party, enjoy sharing your individuality with a fun gathering of family and friends. If you love a particular china pattern, go ahead and use it. Just remember that no one says you have to also match it with fine crystal and silverware. Instead, have fun and match it with your everyday pieces.
Maybe you have a favorite serving piece (sure – it might have been passed down to you from your great-grandmother), use it! You might even share the story of why it means so much to you.
Are you headed to someone else’s gathering? We have a few covered cake dishes to add just a bit of style!
Bottom line – enjoy the holidays in your style – casual, formal, artsy! The truly important piece is to enjoy as a guest and a host! Make it fun! Share your individuality and your stories. Happy Holidays!
Stop in today and take a peek. You know we’ll be watching for ya!

On this special day of the year, Americans celebrate:
In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgivingcelebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states. It wasn’t until 1863, in the midst of the Civil War, that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national Thanksgiving Day to be held each November. from History.com
Here, at Bahoukas Antique Mall and Beer MuZeum, we want to first wish each and every one of you a heartfelt Happy Thanksgiving. We also want to remind you to take a moment to truly be thankful for all that you have… love, family, friends, food and shelter. At the same time, take a moment to reach out to another who may not be as fortunate.
Most of all, take time to breathe: breathe in the wonderful aromas of the season, breathe and smile for those you share it with, breathe and let go of all that feels like a burden, breathe… relax … give thanks.
There are many combinations that can be created for your Holiday table and buffet. This is just one sampling. Beautiful gold and white would most certainly add an elegant touch to your holiday theme. We have place settings, salt & pepper shakers, an amazingly stunning gold tea set, and a variety of serving dishes.
