a little peek ~

 Tomorrow Keely and I are spending some time in our little booth shop transitioning our wares over to the holiday season!  Yep, that's right......Christmas is coming!

Here's a little peek of some of my stuff before I loaded up my car tonight.

I'll be adding several nice old frames.  A few I left in their original goldish color while the others got a nice coat of white or french grey....


This oak pedestal side table is freshly dressed in french grey (SOLD).  The two cabinet doors were transformed into chalkboards one of which is minty green and the other is shabby white.

This fun little ditty was in baaaaaaaad shape, let me just tell ya!  You'll have to believe me because I didn't get a before picture.  It's one half of a vanity and it had (well, it still kinda has) holes on one side where someone decided to separate it from it's mate.  I filled the holes best I could with wood filler, but it's still very imperfect on that one side.  But, you know me, imperfect is perfect in my world!  I painted it with some creamy white paint and added french grey numbers to the drawers.  I love the lines of this little mid century piece and I love that the drawers are knobless.(SOLD)

 I think it would be a lovely addition to a craft room or office!

I had already packed up most of my smalls in tubs, but this vintage Haeger mother and child statue hadn't been wrapped up yet.....


In addition, I have quite a stash of vintage Christmas ornaments all merchandised into bags...
I heart vintage Shiny Brites so much!  This picture just makes me giddy!  They look like rainbow sherbet!

Can't wait to spend the day with my pal Keely fluffing and primping our little corner of the vintage retail world tomorrow!  If you're out and about, stop by and say hello!  We would love to see you!

I love that little chest. Your tags are so cute. Who wouldn't buy those ornaments looking so cute.
The Barn Sale is tomorrow and Saturday. They have such unusual things.
Have fun with Keely.
