fluffing my stuff ~

So, I haven't posted about the booth(s) lately.  Well, actually, I haven't done much posting at all, now have I?!?!  Sorry about that!

In July, I opened a second booth at Heritage Square Antique Mall where Keely and I share our Motley Junket booth.  This mall is so close to home and a booth opened up right across the aisle from our other space, so I decided to make a go of it.  

Here is how the booth looks right now.....

 Along the back, we topped two vintage industrial 14 drawer file cabinets with an old door to create a work table.  I even had a vintage industrial office chair at just the right height to help customers understand the concept.  I strung wire above the work station and used clothespins to hang old photos.


I just have 5 vintage gas station numbers left!  They have been selling like hotcakes for just $1 each!
Love the vintage Paris tshirts....

Funky turquoise ephemera display (SOLD), beautiful yard long mirror with etching, fun GHOST book just in time for Halloween......

In this corner, you'll find tons of ironstone......platters, plates and bowls.
The old cabinet is handmade and has an old white window as the door!
The old wire potato basket is pretty neat and that barn wood frame is HUGE!


I just love me some drawers!!  Industrial metal or wood with glass knobs....take your pick!!

These drawers below are located in our Motley Junket booth.  Do you have any idea how hard it is to part with these beauties??  Old, grey, heavy-duty workshop drawers!!  $100 for each set. 
 Just look at that hardware!!!


Keely and I have both been busy gathering goods for our Fall/Halloween collection, and quite honestly, we are both getting pretty excited to get into that space and transform it with all of our finds!  We are going for a funky whimsical and maybe just a tad bit spooky creepy look!  Should be fun!  Looking forward to sharing sometime soon!!

keep dreaming ~

Hi Polly!

I love your "shop", everything is so cool! Did you have things at the French Hen Farm Spring Sale ub Marysville?? I picked your business card up from somewhere and I've really enjoyed visiting and seeing all the fab things you do and sell! I've got to find where Heritage is. I love in Columbus so I know you're not too far.

Hugs, Sherry

What a great place you have getting to tweak here and there and to get ready for Halloween! I'm dreaming of some white pumpkins, but they're not quite ready here! xo ~Lili
