Antique Elegance

Another great Antique Elegance Show has come and gone. They had record crowds on Saturday! Lots of people even came early to attend the fashion show. This show has some amazing treasures! And everything must be old -- 1940's and older. I'm not worthy to be included, but I gave it my best.

Here are a few pictures....

Wonderful partner's desk!

See you at Canton!!

Coming Soon to a Flea Market Near You....

Look what I found! Isn't it the most wonderful orginal shade of robin's egg blue! These pictures were snapped very quickly as everything was being loaded in the van and I didn't even get to take pictures of the whole set. There is a round table with glass top (hole in glass to allow for umbrella), four wonderful arm chairs (two bounce and two are stationary) and two fantastic chaise lounges (sorry no pics of them). This is one heavy set! Don't you just love the scrolly arms and the pretty roses design in the metal? There was some paperwork with this set that had the name Lee L. Woodard Furniture - Owosso, Michigan. I haven't found a label on the furniture. I'm getting it ready for the next Canton show.
Hope to see you there!

Prayers needed....

My friend Lillie just called to say that two of her granddaughters are in the hospital with the flu. Those of you who came to Lillie's grand opening of Junk Palace probably met her daughter, Crystal, who was working the checkout counter. Both of her girls are in the hospital. Baily (about 16) had to be brought to the ICU at Children's Hospital in Dallas due to some major complications and little Jaycee (about 2) is still in Athens -but may be released today. I'll keep you posted as best as possible. Please say a prayer, send well wishes, good thoughts, anything....

New creation.....
