Time for a Booth Fill In
Time for another booth fill in...especially now that Easter is just around the corner, collectors are out on the prowl looking for something to add to their personal collections or even start a new one. I usually bring out my linens in the spring and I was busy starching and ironing over the weekend. As mentioned in a previous post, I like to iron linens. There is something wonderful about seeing wrinkled textiles and watching them become smooth and crisp with the passing of a hot iron and a little steam.
So I brought in linens, bisque eggs and a pair of greenware infant heads. I know, I know their heads...but they are kinda cool too.
Found more of my green depression glass so brought more in.
Lots of deviled egg trays and pretty little pottery drawers for storing favorite recipes, found objects or treats.
Sweet child's Edwardian slip. Soft, fine cotton batiste and pretty Irish filet crochet lace edging.
Wonderful pairs of late Edwardian deadstock ladies shoes. Size 6 and 6.5, these have never been worn and are in wearable condition. Circa 1910.
How about this smashing, soft rabbit fur ladies wrap or stole? Perfect condition, this is the wrap that every teen angel wanted to wear to that last dance of the school season.
A selection of fantastic ladies envelope clutch bags in sequins and beads. All from the 1950s.
Those fabulous Armetale mugs have already gotten lots of interest.
Pretty doilies, crosses and painting.
Had good sales last week and in speaking with other colleagues, everyone appears to be having sales so this is good for all of us. With the economy as unstable as it is, it is really nice to know that the antique and art community is seeing sales. Wishing all of us who are involved in any retail endeavor a very prosperous spring season. Sea Witch
