White on White Antique Booth Display

 As I mentioned last week, I dedicated myself to moving one booth and dissembling another.  The net result is a total of four booths for me in the Treasures South Antique Mall, instead of five, but with tighter design in all.  This booth had become a catch all.  If it didn't fit the theme of my other booths, it came here.  The walls were accidentally a pinkish lavender, with a blue shelf and upper wall, that had been moved from another booth.  Really yucky, I guess I should have taken a before picture, but it was just so depressing.

 Thus I moved out all the odds and ends into other booths.  I'd sold off some furniture pieces which made holes in other booths, and then I moved the shelving from this booth that wasn't already white ... then all the pastel goodies went across the isle.

Long over due stuff went next door to my clearance booth ... manly things to my 'guy booth', etc.

With the booth devoid of smalls, all walls and the upper shelf were painted white, which dryed over night,  then it was moving day.



 Most of what you are seeing in the new white booth came directly from the old white booth ...



 I always love a fresh pallet, so from this point the move was fun.  I used white, cream, light brown (mainly in transferware, natural wood, and sepia tone antique photos), and with this move I added a few gold pops.

 Thanks for coming along to take a peak at my newest version of white on white ... my current decorating love!

Flea.o.logy Flea Bits for Vintage Crafting

Have I mentioned my bits project lately?

When I was in California flea marketing last year, some friends and I discovered an altered artist's paradise at a store named Zinnia's. You may have read my blog post about it.

Since then I have been adding lots of jars of fun smalls that I have run across to my craft room at home.

Lots of fun goodies that come in handy for projects ...
Now I have taken them, and more into Treasures Antiques where I work and sell.   I have dedicated a booth to the venture and it has been very well received.

Today I named the venture and made a sign for it, complete with a funky steam punkish pointing finger that I found at my go to place, Graphics Fairy!



Here are more pictures of the kind of goodies I have gathered for crafters and artists of all kinds.



I have loved putting it all together at the Antique Mall,  but finding little bits of goodness Is definitely the most fun.
