The Next Phase...

The last shows are finished....Yippie!!!

Here's a few pics of my booth display.

It was a challenge fitting everything onto one 8ft table...

I could only display handmade items...

so you'll see a few vintage items but they are only for props..

I thought it looked pretty good...

what do you think?

Lots of jewelry...

charms, rings, cuffs...

flour sack towells, ticking pillows, lavender sachets....

burlap stockings, magnets from mini scrabble tiles

& ornaments made from brown paper

the vintage sheet music ornaments and wreaths

are my favorties!! and I sold alot too...

always happy when the customer likes what I made!

this is one of the dozen bottles I embellished

I LOVED making these

and...they were a BIG hit!!!

I only had 3 left!

vintage stamped silver pieces...



Everything that was left from the two shows this weekend

have now been placed in the booth space @

Treasures On Main

When Sandra & I went to the space today...

we had alot of holes to fill after the Open House this weekend

another ....Yippie!!!

I do not put anything in that space that I do not truly love and

would put in my own home...

so I'm always thrilled when pieces sell!!!

I would love to hear your feedback on these handmade items...

and the booth display...any ideas will be greatly appreciated!
and for the Next Phase of JUNK WILD...
....STAY TUNED FRIENDS....

an Etsy Shop is coming in the next two weeks!!!

we'll have lots of vintage and handmade items!

Open House @ Treasures on Main

Tonight was the opening night for our

Christmas Open House @

Treasures On Main in Lincolnton, NC

For those of you that are not locals...

we are located in beautiful North Carolina

right in the center of the state ( about)  & just a few hours from the beautiful

mountains and beaches! It's a grand place to live!

Three days we spent ...completely re-arranging the space for Christmas!

Lots of new treasures, vintage and handmade were added...

take a look...

I carried those big branches from Sandra's yard in my car ...

it was a mess..but worth it in the end...

I hung all of my vintage sheet music ornaments 

and covered the branches with

little twinkle lights

Sandra added her vintage Shiney Brights

 in boxes around the table

Her husband , Jack made this display cabinet for us

out of old doors...

IT IS SO AWESOME!!!

We've both been collecting vintage silver so we added several pieces

to the front display with more shiney brights

I re-finished the old doll cabinet

you can't see in this pic but I lined the drawers with old book pages

the stockings were hung

the trees were placed ( no trimmings).... we like'em plain

our Holiday Potpourri and more shiney brights...

and the old blue cabinet is full of vintage treasures

the back wall is adorned with the chippy white screen doors

purchased @ Southern Comforts in Concord, NC

Thanks to Ms Beth @ Olde Tyme Marketplace for that

awesome tip...we got four...and love them all!

a little Christmas is spread through-out the space

this little tree is full of handmade ornaments

this a view of the left side of the space...

and of the right side of the space....

Sandra kept telling me...

"we have alot of stuff!"

But I love it totally FULL...

My favorite spaces in antique malls are the ones that

are full of treasures!

You can be sure that JUNK WILD

is overflowing with some great stuff!

If you are local please take some time this weekend and

stop over at Treasures On Main !

Open House hours are

Friday & Saturday 10 -8pm

Sunday 1 - 4 pm

Our last shows are this weekend...

I'll be set up @ Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Denver, NC 

Sandra will be at Paw Creek Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, NC

Then it will be time

to rest

and be Thankful!!

It's the Eve of my 49th Birthday....

I'm blessed and thankful for so much!

Especially for good friends!

Just look at what my sweet friend Sandra gave me today...

5 Beautiful Teardrop Shiney Brights...I'm a fool for Shiney Brights!!

these will look so great on my tree this year!!

Thank You Sweet Sandra!

Now ...IF I could just get my Sweetie to deliver

THIS for my Birthday.....
