CUTE LITTLE STORAGE BOX

I hope you are having a good week-end! 

 Just a quick post to show you

a little cutie that I took in to Splendid this week.  This would

 make a fun end table, a useful little coffee square

 in front  of the sofa, beside or at the foot

 of a bed or an accent in numerous other places. It has a lift top

 lid, and I papered the inside of the lid with a collage

of old newpaper clippings from The Household, September 1916.

There are lots of fun ads. 

 I can see this little piece being used

to store pillows, magazines, throws for these chilly nights..

it could hold all kinds of things.  You could

even leave the lid open, as I show in the picture!

I hope you like it too!

HAGGLE WITH THE DEALER SALE TOMORROW!!

The annual Haggle With the Dealer Sale starts tomorrow at Stars and Stars & Splendid Antique Malls, and will contiue through Monday the 16th.  Don't miss this big event and the chance to add to your collections or start a new collection!

Here are a few more goodies that are in my booth waiting for you!

This pretty little plate would look nice holding jewelry on your dresser, or soap in a bathroom.

 
I really like this little lamp.  It can hang on the wall (remove the shade) and has a swivel neck so the light can be directed wherever you need it.  Cute, huh?   I know, it's not a very good picture, but maybe you can get an idea of what it looks like.  The base is kind of a bronze colored metal.

Also new in the space is this unique old wire hanger, designed to hold not only a shirt or coat, but also belts and pants. 

I hope you will stop in to check out all of the bargains.  Have a great week-end.

RESTOCKED FOR THE HAGGLE SALE!!!!

I've restocked both booth spaces and they are FULL!!  Here is a peek at some of the goodies I've taken in.  I will be stocking more treasures through-out the sale.

This adorable little much loved doll is looking for a new home.  Is your home available?

And how about this sweet "This Little Piggy Went to Market" baby hot water bottle?

There is a lovely double wedding ring quilt in soft pastel shades.  This is a generous double size.

And some pretties for your nightstand or table......

 

I absolutely LOVE these old paneled cupboard doors.  I can just see these used on each side of a window, shutter style. 

Thanks for stopping by to visit.  I hope you like these old treasures. 

SUITCASE BONANZA

Vintage suitcases are a favorite of mine.  There are so many uses for these old relics, so I was thrilled to find several while out treasure hunting recently.  They are great for storing all sorts of things, like craft supplies, out of season clothing, extra bedding.  And while they are busy storing things for you, how about spiffing up a neglected corner of the room by creating a little vignette with the suitcases as the focal point and adding in a plant, some candle holders, or some other accessories. 

Or, maybe try a stack at the foot of the bed, to store extra bedding.

I'm sure you will find all sorts of fun things to do with one or more of these!  You'll find them in my space at Stars & Splendid. 

Don't forget to put the Haggle with the Dealers Sale on your calendar for January 14th, 15th and 16th at both of the Stars Antique Malls.  There will be some amazing deals to be had!!  I hope you will stop by.
