Warehouse

We were so busy last weekend, I have been going crazy working in the warehouse every morning and night - I thought I would give you a glimpse of some pending projects.
This table is a great long & narrow style. I think it was a library table in a previous life. I'm hoping to pair it up with some 2 cute chairs and have a great dining table or office table.

These are solid wood shelves that I've painted white. I'll add some big glass knobs and they will be perfect in the bedroom, bathroom, or hallway.

The black chairs in the back are a custom paint job for a customer. The fabric she picked for the upholstery is so cute, very reminiscent of those old fashioned grain sacks.
The two white chairs are almost ready, I'm recovering them in burlap.

This red dresser is also a custom paint job, ready for pickup this week.

The white headboard behind is going to become a bench, and the two green chairs were individual dining chairs that I've mounted together to create a bench.

Antique Fair

Well, the 44th annual Sutter Street Antique Fair is coming up on Sunday, April 18th. This will be my 5th spring fair and it is always a great time. Lots of people on the street, lots of vendors, and I love the discovery of new stuff!

At the same time the 2nd Roseville Spring Antique Market (located on Oak Street, between Taylor and South Grant Street) is also happening. After careful consideration and craziness, I have decided to set up a tent there too!

Both events are great, not to be missed fairs, and because both events are geographically close, it is easy to go to both the same day. The biggest difference is while the Folsom event is larger and with more variety (antiques, collectibles, shabby, vintage, art deco, etc) the Roseville event is focused on vintage collectibles.

Thanks!

Easter

Finished unpacking all my fantastic vintage style easter decorations. Here's a small sample of wood signs, fuzzy chicks, and easter trees.

To better display my great collection of paper Easter decorations, I took my twig Christmas tree, painted it (white, pink, and a little gold), then added some pink tissue flowers, and VIOLA! You have a great Easter display tree.

Alameda - March

Well, just got home after a wonderful day shopping at the Alameda Antique Faire. I went down with two great friends and we walked up and down every aisle. I picked up this 2 tier end-table (known as a dumb waiter) right away.

Then scooped up this fantastic black leather suitcase with 3 vintage airport tags still hanging!

This very unique coffe bin was my best purchase. This is truly a unique item with original paint, hinges, and door, and not rusted through! All it needs is some cleaning and it will be a great piece in the store.

Then met this man who makes these Fluer de Lis chalkboards!!!! They are fantastic and priced perfectly. I picked up his only 2 and if you guys like them as much as I do, I'll contact him for more.

p.s. he also has poodle forms !!!

It was a beautiful sunny day and the faire was very busy with buyers and sellers. I had so much fun hooking up with the girls from Tattered House, checked out Marilyn's stuff (always so very chic!), popped by Bungalow's spot, lusted after Big Daddy's vintage metal pieces. Not to mention eating fantastic melt in your mouth mini donuts (we shared 2 cones).

We'll have to see if I can make it back for the April event (it's on Easter Sunday), but I'm planning on selling again in May so hope to see you guys there!
