Broome Closet Booths {CeCe Caldwell Visits}

Hello friends.

The Broome Closet booths at Ridge Antiques

 in Ridge Spring, South Carolina have been more exciting than usual. 

The French gentlemen's chest above, painted by Beth, with CeCe Caldwell paint sold to an unexpected person. 

CeCe Caldwell came into the shop and bought it. 

She also purchased other furniture pieces from us and throughout the store.

 She is taking them back to Arizona where she has a store.

Beth and I were quite happy about that.

Edit: Beth tells me the French gentlemen's chest is painted in Young Kansas Wheat.

The twig wreaths are handmade by my brother in law from his Georgia creek vines.

We have a good bit of transferware.

We love it.

Don't you?

Our garden booth has many fall items. 

We love pumpkins. 

Don't you?

We are  restocking the booths today and tomorrow. 

The Ridge Spring merchants are having a sidewalk sale on Saturday.

We truly appreciate all our customers. 

It is always thrilling to have sales.

Thank you all for your many well wishes for Joe.

 He returned to work yesterday.

peace and joy

Broome Closet Booths At Ridge Antiques

Hey ya'll.

How are you doing on this cold Monday?

 I realize many of you are hunkered down in snow, ice, and cold that I cannot imagine. 

I pray you are safe and warm.

Since I last showed you our Broome Closet Booths we have acquired a third booth. 

We are busy. And blessed.

Lots of images to follow. 

If you stay with me you are a peach.

Beth painted this French Country coffee table. 

I love it.

Our back booth is chock full of vintage mirrors. 

You know I must have some cloches.

My back is aching from moving this large old dining table last Saturday.

 I feel like I have been moving furniture for days. 

That's because I have been moving furniture for days:}

Please  come see us any time Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Monday.

Ridge Antiques Open House

Open House in Ridge Spring, South Carolina, last Sunday, was a wonderful success. 

The street was full of people. 

The town markets the event well. 

 Ridge Antiques, where our two booths are, was busy.

We had a wide assortment of food and wine.

Chocolate wine too. 

The Talented B serves it every year.

Warning: Many images to follow

 This rusty sleigh of mine sold right away.

Mary Ann's cabinet is the center of the first room and is not for sale I am sad to say.

The primitive farm table the food is on had been sold. 

Mary Ann convinced the young couple to leave it on hold until after Open House.

These images are from our window booth.

 I am totally gone over the chippy blue mantel.

Thanks to all who stopped by.

Primitives and More

Happy Monday my friends.

Isn't this a great tower of primitive crates? 

It is in Bob's booth in Ridge Antiques.

He is one of the owners.

I love this beautiful religious piece.

 I have a similar one, at my house, that I cannot let go of.

Yes, I am a terrible seller.

A marvelous urn. 

I think this is Jimmy's.

 It is hard to keep up with all their booths.

 The three of them have a lot of space in these two joined buildings. 

They also have a lot of knowledge about antiques.

Mary Ann has quite the collection of flow blue in this magnificent corner cabinet.

These tear drop knobs are something serious on this chest.

The image is blurry but I love this piece that Mary Ann has in the kitchen area.

Mary Ann has a great flair for primitives.

 All you rooster lovers look at these old rooster dishes. 

She has an enormous set. 

I am eyeing that chippy red toolbox in the center of the farm table.

I hope you enjoyed Jimmy's, Mary Ann's and Bob's booths. 

They own and/or manage Ridge Antiques. 

They are lovely people and I am honored to work with them and Beth.

CC has written her first blog about South Korea here.

 I have told her to turn off word verification.

Broome Closet Window @ Ridge Antiques

The Talented B and I are thrilled to announce we have

 another booth at Ridge Antiques in a large window space.

 This booth is big, sunny, and a better configuration than

 our other booth which we still have right down from this one.

We moved in yesterday and brought as many fall items that would fit.

B painted the blue dresser and the red table.

This is a beautiful Italian chair.

Please visit us at

Ridge Antiques in Ridge Spring, South Carolina. 

Ask for The Broome Closet booths. 

Plural.

Folks there know me as Terri, do not read this blog,

 and will know nothing of Olive or Olive Out. 

The owners have little use for computers.

It would be fun to have my worlds collide.

Beth and I feel thankful and incredibly blessed to have this opportunity.

Many thanks to all of you who have emailed me asking if I was okay.

 I have missed all of you and blogging.

 I will be going into more detail about CC and South Korea in another post.

GETTING CC TO SOUTH KOREA was quite the project.

Brown Transferware Fills An Armoire

This armoire has been partially painted and distressed by my antique booth buddy B.

 We filled it with brown and white transferware.

We sold several pieces of furniture and that made room for this armoire. 

Do you recognize the harlequin lamp?

 It is one of my most visited posts from 2012.

We hung thrifted black and white drapes in our two windows. 

A hippie, from the 70's, came and took the other drapes back.

We almost kissed that hippie.

 Sassy cow anyone?

Or is it a bull?

The French Girl is made from alabaster.

Vietri dishes, hand painted in Italy, are comfy in a bamboo container. 

I want them and the transferware but I am behaving y'all.

Come see us at The Broome Closet booth at Ridge Antiques

in Ridge Spring, South Carolina.
