Hello beautiful friends! The last time I took ya'll on a trip to my booth was back in August, so I figured it was time for another visit! How does that sound? But first, I wanted to let ya'll know that my Mom loved her new necklace organizer! I had planned to take it to her early Tuesday morning, hopefully before she saw my post, but I was too late...she saw it on my blog. She texted me that she loved it ha ha. See it HERE if you missed it... it was a real trash-to-treasure project! If you … [Read more...]

Awesome Friends, I totally forgot how inspiring the smallest of makeovers could be! You told me and I listened. I don't often share all those smaller makeovers, but you can expect to see more smalls posts like these in the future...I will share them all, big AND small! :) Today I am sharing the other half of these items I pulled from my stash to replenish my booth: If you missed the first half, you can catch up HERE. I marathon-painted these items in two days! Here's a closer … [Read more...]
Painting the Smalls (for my booth!) Part One
March 1, 2018 by 115 Comments
Hello beautiful friends! I am well on my way to filling my booth back up after the sad state I left it in for several months after our big move. What my booth is still desperately lacking though are smalls. Smalls are all the little things that help keep sales going when shoppers aren't in the market for furniture. I just can't seem to keep them. Every once in a while I will go rummaging around in my stash and pull out a bunch of things that only need a quick paint job and go to town. I don't … [Read more...]

Hello amazing friends!! I had a super productive weekend here at the house and I can't wait to share what I've been working on. It's not quite finished but hopefully soon!

How does that sound? My poor booth...I know it is feeling neglected. If you are new around here, I have a booth at the Virginia … [Read more...]

Hello Sweet Friends! If you are new around here, welcome! I have a booth at the Virginia Beach Antique Mall here in Virginia Beach where I sell all my treasures that I make over. The last time I took ya'll on a trip to my booth was in October, so I thought it was time for another visit! I have a pretty good sized booth and it takes quite a bit to keep it looking full. I take a few quick cell phones pics each time I drop off something new so I can share later! When I last shared my booth, … [Read more...]

May 17, 2016 by
Thinking of renting a booth in a retail space? Have a booth already, but it needs a little something more? You've come to the right place! As most of you know, I have a booth in an antique mall where I sell the majority of the items I transform. If you are new here, welcome! I sell repurposed and vintage items that I have given new life to, usually with paint.

I haven't shared my booth since December when I shared it for the first time. You can see that post here. So today I thought it would be fun to share a few pics since then. These are all iPhone pics, so bear with me! Back in December my space looked something like this: But then I shared this pic showing what had sold: My space is actually two spaces which I love because I have plenty of room to spread out, but it also takes a lot more inventory to keep it filled. I filled … [Read more...]
My Booth {Virginia Beach Antique Mall}
December 17, 2014 by
I am finally getting around to sharing my booth space! Last year I shared my Christmas Market Booth, which was part of a big Thanksgiving weekend craft market here in Virginia Beach. I did shows with my parents for about 15 years, but as much as I loved it, I really wanted to find a more permanent space to sell my pieces. In October I finally moved into a space at the Virginia Beach Antique Mall. I always enjoy seeing people's booth spaces, so I thought you might too! (Forgive the photos, the … [Read more...]
$10 Clawfoot Table Makeover {& I got a Booth, Ya’ll!}
October 12, 2014 by
Hello beautiful friends! I have a quick makeover to share with you today and I want to tell you about my booth! A couple of weeks ago I went yard saling and found several goodies. These goodies to be exact: A few pretty cool pieces came home with me that day. My best deals were that bench for $10, the scale for $3, and the console table for a mere $10. I was in the market for smaller furniture pieces because I finally bit the bullet and leased a booth at a local antique store. (The … [Read more...]
