Visit to Oddfellows Antiques~Asheville!

I had so much fun at Oddfellows Antiques where Kelly was lots of fun and very helpful!  Can't wait to go back.  BTW, you might keep a stock of treats just in case other 4-legged shoppers come to visit!
;-)

I was a bit worried about the weather as I could hear thunder in the distance, and I don't do well with thunder!  That is the reason for my ears being laid back....scary!

Shopping before the fireworks!

Several days relaxing and shopping with Mommy & Daddy near Asheville.

This is a lovely gilt frame with Delft tile insert.

....perfect for a mini Biltmore?

Happy 4th of July!

Adorable cottages and landscape.  These are pictures of The Pines Cottages. Near Asheville, NC.

Vintage painted bird cage

New item Mommy found!
Vintage painted iron bird cage.
Maybe I can put all my stuffed flamingo toys in it! She will probably sell it instead.

HAPPY FATHERS' DAY!

Great crowd and great customers at Lakewood 400 in Cumming, Georgia

The first two days have been awesome!  People shopping for Fathers' Day gifts and other wonderful items.  Many came by to see me and our shoppe.  Look at Marlie and Mommy sitting at the vintage school desks!

Nothing so great as a belly rub and treat from a sweet lil young lady!

Lots of new things including this cute ladybug child's rocker.

Come and see us at the Lakewood 400 Antiques Market!

Shopping and preparing for the Antique Show this weekend

We have new items for the Lakewood 400 Antiques Show this weekend!
Here is a sneak peek of a few of the items we will have available in our shoppe area.

19th C. Mahogany game table with felt insert, gadroon border, ball and claw feet. Fantastic!

Early 19th century corner cabinet with glazed doors enclosing five shelves with a hand lock. Measures 63" x 39" x 20"

Walnut wash table with raised edge, central drawer and shelf below. 32" x 25" x 19"

Primitive/plantation painted cradle!

I was ready and eager to head out each shopping day!

Weekend find

It was the weekend and we visited some markets and sales.
Most notable is this carved wood frame with a needle pointe & Pettit pointe portrait, circa approximately 1890-1920.  Near perfect condition, would be lovely in a parlor or guest room!
What a lovely find.

Happy Friday!

Daddy has decided he will part with this lovely pair of early Limoges, possibly Old Paris, vases that have been in the family for many years.  We have been enjoying these beauties as they have sat on our mantle.  They would make a great addition to your collection. 

Look for them at the Lakewood 400 Antiques Market, June 14-16.

Have a great weekend!

Lovely Tiger Oak Victorian piece

Beautiful piece with some lovely Majolica.  Currently featured in the "Packrats' Daughters Corner at The Inn at Magnolia Oaks.  Northeast Georgia's most romantic and B & B.

Look at this lovely piece of furniture. A standing coal hod from Shropshire county England.
Would be great for wood pieces, newspaper, magazines....towels in the bathroom.......so many uses in so many locations.

Enjoy today and remember "Each day is the present". Live it, love it and fill it with lots of tail wags and kisses!

Memorial Day Thanks!

Thank you to those who served!

Now, spice up the porch, patio, lanai or sunroom with this rattan chair & ottoman. cushions not attached and easily changed. Add the lovely painted flower and crystal prisms candelabras!  We added the flameless candles. Sparkling!

For a powder room, or the sunroom here are a pair of botanicals (original artwork) over 100 years old in gilded frames.  Signed by Swiss artist with her engagement photo on the back!
Sorry for the glare and reflections on the old glass!  You should still be able to see the detail.
Mom, we need a better camera, or maybe photographer! Lol!  I am sure Mommy will part with them if she can find some other botanicals she loves just as much!

Happy picnicking and parade watching to everyone!

As so many are already doing it please include the people of Oklahoma after the devastation.  We pray for our family and friends who lived through it!  Our continued thoughts and prayers go out to them....the victims, their families, first responders and all affected by this tragic event.
