Antique Trove # 1

I am a month behind in posting this, but I still want you to know that...

The Antique Trove was voted #1 for KCRA's A-list.

CONGRATULATIONS!

If you have never visited this Antique mall, then now is the time.

Please visit our space "the vintage bricoleur", on aisle G.

Showing my Patriotic Spirit

I thought I would share some pics of

Red - White - Blue

in my home.

On my blue front door, (with white trim), a red vintage mailbox that I use as a wall pocket to hold greenery.

There is nothing quite like a flag waving in the hot summer breeze.

A flag hanging on the wall in my son's loft room.

Stars and Stripes

An iron star hanging over my front door.

A metal white star hanging on the front siding on the front porch.

A row of red/white and blue/white plates on the plate rail in the dining room.

I didn't realize how many stars, red, white and blue I had in my home until I thought about doing a post for the Fourth of July.  Most of these items are up year round and I love them.  Do you use these patriotic items for decorating?

Have a safe Fourth of July!

A New Look

YEAH!!!

I was contacted by someone that I admire very much to see if I would like some help with my blog.  I thought about it for about

1 second.

I am so excited!

So take a look around, she is in the process of making some changes, so some things are

"under construction".

So far , I love it!

What do you think?

Computer Issues

The desktop computer that I use to write posts for this blog is having issues.  So it has been several days since I have been able to get on and read all of your great post and see your pretty pictures and to do a post of my own.  I have some older photos but the ones that I wanted to show you of our day at The Candlestick Antique Show are on my camera and I can't get them off until I get a new cord adapter for this little laptop.  So, hang on folks, those photos will be coming.

Instead, I will share some pretty photos of past shows.

Old tub/headboard/footboard combo with flowers.

Look at those legs!

Yellow shrubs in vintage galvanized tub.

Galvanized bucket full of flowers on patio table.

Flat of flowers ready to be planted on primitive potting workbench.

Sweet Allysum in cute clay pots.

Are you seeing a pattern here?  Yes!  Flowers or plants in vintage containers.

I'll share more another time. 

Our next show is July 3rd, in Alameda.  Hope to see you there! 

I also wanted to say thank you to all of you who have gone to the Antique Trove and or Scout Living recently to check out our spaces.  Your support means a lot.

Until next time...

This is the perfect place to be on a hot summer day.

This is our space on ailse G.  It is a big double space with lots of wonderful treasures for your shop or home.

Pretty little shabby dresser.

Beautiful buffet with natural top.

Lots of mirrors!
