Old buckets...
Got numbers.
An old stool got a Paris address.
And then they all got taken to the antique mall.
I used an old shutter to make a shelf along the top of my booth. Since my booth is so small, I wanted to add more display space. The booth behind mine has Christmas all year, so I guess there will always be Christmas trees in the background. Hmmm, unless I can find a way to disguise them. Any ideas?
I also added a stack of books and a great old scale I got at an auction. Thanks for all the encouraging comments on opening my booth. It really helped me feel more confident about my decision.
I'm joining a few parties listed on my side bar. Please go visit.

The pails and stool look great, Janet! Love the Paris stencil. I wonder if you could put some kind of connected shutters {you know, like a small size version of a room screen} up there {upright} and they could be a background for what you put up there as well as a screen against the Christmas trees.
ReplyDeleteI don't know which I love more. The pails or the stool. Okay, both! =)

I agree with Jeanine....love them both!! Great ideas and your booth looks wonderful!

I know those Christmas trees in the background would bother me too. Maybe you could get some kind of big sign with your business name made and put it permanently back there. Congrats on your new space ~ it looks great!
ReplyDeleteI'm getting ready to have a space at a new store on May 1st. It won't be an antique mall, but a home decor store. Trying to gather as much as I can until then because I have an open house sale at my home the day before. Not the best timing, but that's how it goes.

I love the lettering on that stool! How very clever you are.
ReplyDeleteI love old buckets like that, but you really made them special when you added those numbers! And that stool looks fantastic too!
ReplyDeleteLove your new additions!
ReplyDeleteIf the ceilings aren't that high can you hang something down to the top of the shelf in the back? Or perhaps just put a back on the shelf!
