I have been making progress with
my booth. More than just the fun hunting-gathering-gleaning from the attic part, I have inventoried researched, priced and tagged.
I painted and faux finished a set of shelves that I picked up from Craigslist. They were so long they barely fit in the Sequoia, but really good for displaying my goodies.
It's been a little slow going because I've been fighting a cold. In the end, the cold won when it developped into bronchitis. My preferred method for being sick is to deny it, ignore it, and it will go away. I don't have time to be sick for Pete's Sake. With four kids, it seems someone always needs to go to a doctor/dentist/orthodontist/therapist, so it doesn't leave much time for me to self-indulge in my own maladies. This morning, however, I admitted defeat, went to the Minor Med, and got some proper medication. One of my "to-do's" for 2009 is to get myself a proper Family Doctor. I really should get on that.
Chr has been a terrific help setting up the booth, carrying, cleaning, sorting, and of course keeping me company on our hunting/gathering outings.
This is what we opened with. It looked so sparse after all that work, but it was pretty and Chr and I were proud of our work.
After a second installment of inventory. Hah, this is going to take a while.
This Sculptured Daisy china is so cheerful and pretty. I kept a piece back for myself. A little goes a long way if that's all you have on the table, but it looks great mixed in with coordinating pieces.
