Fluffed And Spiffed

Hello all! hope you are all doing well... Today is bright and shiny and Thursday!  Sometimes I forget the day of the week....I woke up and sleepily wondered what today was and what I had to do.  Then I realized it is Thursday and while that  may mean nothing to you, but Thursdays is my favorite day.  Always has been and I suspect it always will be.  Yesterday, I went out to the booths for a few hours and fluffed and spiffed to freshen them up a bit.  Loads of new items went in and I hope to get some more burlap shades there this week.

Here are a few photos from Winchester:

Sprinkle some Sparkle:  German glass glitter in little salt and pepper shakers

I also went over to City Farmhouse to stock and fluff, but Mr. Hughes had been there the day before hanging some things for me, so he had it looking pretty good if I do say so myself!

Some of you who are local will probably see him at the booths more than me.  And you will call him Mr. Vintage Junky.  He now answers to that and is okay with that moniker *wink*  He is my muscles and luckily, he has a good eye as well.

Well, I am off to paint if the hyena will stay asleep just a little longer.  If not, it is time to start our day.  Which includes a covert Operation Vintage.  Keep your fingers crossed that an awesome bookcase I passed up months ago is still at the place where it was.  I would tell you, but then I would have to erase your mind.  baby hughes needs more storage.  And, he also wants a truck.  A green one.  Happy Thursday everyone!

bye for now!

Booths as of Late

Hello all!!!  Apparently, I have become a once a week blogger.  I have been pretty busy though (I almost just wrote busty... definitely not that!) Anyhow, last week, I left the hyena at home with Mr. Hughes and went to do a little fluffin'. Unfortunately, I only brought my little point and shoot... and what does that matter... the Mr. is the good photographer around these parts.  What I am getting at is: the photos are a little dark and grainy, but you will get the idea.

My booth at Winchester is l o n g and not deep.  And while I love it, it isn't easy to get a photo of the entire space.  I normally just take the smaller stuff and leave the heavy lifting to the Mr.  So, if you ever see someone in my booth, moving in furniture, that isn't me.  I am not a 6 foot tall man with a beard.  

I will take a break right now to show you that while I love selling vintage goodness, I love to buy it even more.  And, this little number (hahhaha!) is actually a really long surveying stick that is mineallmine!  The Mr. was out at the booths one day and came home and told me about this stick.  Well, the store couldn't open fast enough the next morning for me to call and hold it until I could come and look to make sure it was what I thought it was.  And it was!!  I haven't hung it up yet, but this was one of those things that I couldn't pass up...  I always end up kicking myself when I don't buy something when I love it.  Even if I don't have a real plan for it.  Which is why, before long, we will be on Hoarders.  

And now, my space at City Farmhouse.  I restocked the piano roll runners, which you can see on the buffet.  That was a Mr. Hughes design.  He is pretty wonderful... that frame with the rope is also his design.  Okay, I will be back soon...pinky promise.... maybe tomorrow... with some new designs for etsy and one is for the holidays...gasp!!

bye for now!
