My space at Rusty Saturday.. oh, the fun I am having!!!

My booth  at Rusty Saturday is all set up and ready to go for this month's big sale weekend!!
I have had so much fun getting everything ready and I'm really pleased with the results!

 The space is a perfect size for me and I am filling it with all the things that I love.

 This door is one of my favorites. It is old and chippy with just the right amount of turquoise popping through. I have attached chippy brackets and a couple of shelves to make a wonderful display shelf with authentic vintage goodness!! I have one of these in my family room displaying all my ironstone.

 Here it is filled with brown transferware. YUMMY!

This is a cool bookcase/desk. The door pulls down to make it a usable desk. Perfect for a laptop!

 I made these hooks from architectural salvage. They are perfect for a kitchen or bath.

 It was very tempting to keep some for myself!

 I have lots of placemats, runners, doilies, hankies and lace.
Again... I cant resist those vintage linens!

 I have lots of handmade goodies. Here are some of my pumpkins just waiting for a new home!

 These pillows are made from an antique European grain sack and black and white ticking. Again I thought... can't I just keep them??? But alas... no. They must be shared. :)

 I also have some great art supplies. Little salt shakers full of German glass glitter, mother of pearl buttons, brass doodads (that's the scientific name) for making jewelry....

Gorgeous rhinestone chain for embellishing just about anything, little vials with cork stoppers, and lots of lace yardage including some wonderful vintage stuff.

I am having so much fun doing this! I hope you will stop in and say hi tomorrow or any day this weekend! Not only are there some wonderful vendors inside Rusty Saturday, but it is also The Salvage Yard weekend with awesome "picked" finds behind the store!

I hope to see you there!!!

Wonderful & Beautiful. I envy you..but I dont. While I miss my bricks & motar shop, I am enjoying having a etsy shop. I will look for a small space possibly in 2015. I hope to get to see your items in January. Have Fun.

Where exactly is Rusty Saturday located? I get down to the Phoenix area occasionally and would love to bring my sister who lives in Anthem.

By surprise I saw your booth, and it was the prettiest, because I had gone in there looking for letters. But oddly, I think I saw it on Pinterest first! I picked up a card, and recognized your blog name. I loved the shell tray, and purchased it for my kitchen. xoxox

Bohemian said...

I did stop by and it was indeed Beautiful Karen and Created an Atmosphere of Serenity and Comfort. Loved the Architectural Salvage Hooks... so Clever... I think I might NEED one when I go back! *winks* Dawn... The Bohemian
