vintage girl vintage guy ~

 "My other booth" got mixed up a little over the weekend!  I decided to step outside my comfort zone of my typical booth aesthetic of shabby chippy girlie goodness.  Mickey had some old things he had collected over time that he wanted to sell so a theme of "vintage girl vintage guy" was born.

 This old gentleman's wardrobe (SOLD) was the main inspiration for "vintage guy".  The mirrors are perfectly foxed.  I just love its lines.  Just $80.  Above it, we hung an antique bevel glass mirror and two old curved glass framed photographs on each side.  The grey pillars resting on top of the wardrobe are old, cement, and possess just the right patina.  The pillars are $75 each.

This vintage easel that I painted with chalkboard paint announces our theme....

In the "vintage girl" corner, we hung clotheslines across the pegboard with a vintage Alfred Shaheen dress, a vintage modern grey polyester shirt, and a vintage faux fur winter coat.  The old dress form is modeling a grey vintage cashmere coat (SOLD), black and white polka dot vintage blouse, and a sweet ruffly tulle crinoline.

 

The "vintage guy" corner includes this funky retro men's jacket....

 

And for the professional, a very vintage brown, orange, and white plaid polyester jacket, brown wide collar shirt, and a vintage tie completes the ensemble.

 

There's only a handful of the vintage gas station letters remaining, but I was able to spell HIS.  Just $4 each.

 

Pair of vintage card catalogs....I did have to add new knobs so I chose these french clocks to give them some french flair.

 Big jars filled with old billiard balls (large balls SOLD) and yard game balls (balls SOLD) (balls and jars sold separately).

Fun old restroom sign (SOLD) and an almost vintage Volkswagen Beetle radio/CD player.

Cute old books and pamphlets for the handy man.

vintage hockey skates.

lots of manly toolboxes, bins, drawers, and carriers piled up under this table.

old battery jar filled with deer sheds.

unique old printers plate.....instant artwork. (SOLD)

As you can see here in this photo of the whole booth, there's still plenty of other treasures too!

It's a new year and I thought it would be fun to veer off the beaten path and switch things up a little bit.  And you know what?  It was fun!

Keely and I will be working at the shop later this week to reset our Motley Junket booth.  If you're itching for some pink, romantic, frilly, valentiney goodness, we'll likely be able to oblige your fancies!
