White on White at the Antique Mall

Hello lovers of all things white!  Just wanted to share the booth I just redid at the antique mall.  This booth was brown with pink polka dots, I am not kidding.  I did it as a children's booth, because I love antique children's clothes, books and toys.  Unfortunately the booth never really did very well, so alas it was time for a change.

I have always been drawn to whites, and have had several different areas in the two antique malls where I sell, that focused on white, or black and white, or blue and white, or red and white.  But, in the 17 years I have been selling antiques, I have never had an all white booth.

It was quite a trick to cover that brown and pink wall, in fact it took three coats of paint and quite a chunk of my day, but I think it was quite the perfect transformation.

As you can see, the 'Vintage' banner did make it to the antique mall, with plans to make another for my green and white bedroom.  You will likely see lots of white projects in the near future as I further embellish and create this area at the Treasures, my antique mall of choice.  Thanks for coming along.

  4. I collect a lot of blue/white ceramics and china so love when I can find interesting pieces in white to accent with. In your first pic you have an oval frame with victorian figures in the center. How much is that piece? Also the two figurines in the second photo? Do you ship out or local sales only?
