The A.T. Stewart Consignment Shop has a selection of ceramic cats and dogs.

How can you tell we all love our dog and cat friends?  There are a whole slew of national days/weeks and months devoted to them.  In June (alone) there is Hug your Cat Day, National Garfield the Cat Day, National Dog Party Day, Take your Dog (of cat) to Work Day, Pet Appreciation Week and National Pet Microchipping Month.  This is just a few of the more interesting ones I found dedicated to our four-legged friends.  I happen to be partial to the cat ones.  Anyone who knows me has heard (ad nauseum) about adorable AnneMarie!

At the Exchange, our dedication to our furry friends is no less.  We now have a line of dog (and cat) pins, and faux enamel cat (and dog) boxes.  There are even cat (and dog) towels, child's pet purses, and decorative pillows.  I'm sure if you look around the shop, you'll find many more items that I've forgotten to mention, but you get the idea.

Even though NY State is now following the CDC rules regarding mask-wearing, you will see that many of us continue to wear our masks, out of an abundance of caution.  We will continue to offer hand-sanitizer when you enter the shop, and, to keep you feeling safe, we are running the air purifier which cleans the air in the Shop every hour.

I want to mention our summer hours.  Our Wednesday late night shopping hours will be suspended at the end of this month, and will resume in September.  Also, for the month of August only, we will be closed on Saturdays (Aug. 7th, 14th, 21st, and 27th).  We get newly consigned merchandise almost every day!   If you can't make it in right away, please shop online at www.atstewartexchange.org and come to the Exchange to pick up.  We also post photos on the AT Stewart Exchange Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as the TGCHS website (www.tgchs.org).

Unfamiliar with the Exchange Consignment Shop?  We are housed in The Garden City Historical Society (TGCHS) Museum on 109 Eleventh Street (in the basement of the building). All the proceeds from the Shop sales directly benefit TGCHS.  In addition to our best sellers – jewelry (costume and fine), lamps, mirrors, and crystal (Waterford, Baccarat, Tiffany) — we take/accept silver, pocketbooks, china, furniture, artwork, and collectibles.  All items are in new or nearly new condition.

Up until a year ago, we did consignments by walk-in.  With the virus, we have had to take measures to safeguard our customers, consignors, and volunteers.  Having appointments helps to keep down the numbers of people in the Shop at any point in time and reduces wait-times to consign.  Consignments are now done Wednesday through Friday 11:00am – 2:00pm by appointment ONLY, so please call (516)746-8900.  Unsure if your items are appropriate to consign?  Email photos to store@atstewartexchange.org and be sure to include sizing info.  Please be sure items are cleaned and polished, ready for sale.

All the profits from the Consignment Shop support the maintenance and upkeep of TGCHS Museum.  Thanks to your generous support, work on the outside of the Museum continues.

The Shop is located at 109 Eleventh Street. Shop Hours: Tues – Fri 10:00 – 4:00; Sat noon – 4:00pm.

For more information please call (516) 746-8900

What you need to know about furnace filters - Globalnews.ca

TORONTO – If you're like most people, you probably don't give your furnace much thought as long as it's keeping you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. But in order to keep it working to its optimal performance — and help prevent a possible malfunction — you need to either change or clean your furnace filter on a regular basis. Sounds simple, but in reality there are so many options for furnace filters that choosing the wrong one can do more damage to your furnace than good and could potentially cause your furnace to break down. How a furnace works A traditional forced-air furnace draws air in via return ducts, warms it over a heat exchanger then, with the help of a blower fan, pushes the heated air through a series of ducts that branch off into rooms throughout your home. The furnace runs until the temperature inside reaches your desired thermostat setting. (If you have whole home air conditioning the process is similar with the air being cooled in the summer by a...
