In The Booth...

I hope you, my peeps, do not mind if I show you what The Talented B and I have in our booth at Ridge Antiques. I am over the moon about this turquoise tole tray. B painted the sweet chair and recovered the seat.

Then the find of all finds, by B, is a vintage laundry basket.

 It is filled now with old frames. You do not know how badly I want to bring this home with me.

But I am currently paying for a trip to Korea for CC. We are booking that flight today. 

Kiddos come first. 

Shucks.

Come see us if you are near Ridge Spring, South Carolina at Ridge Antiques on Highway 23. 

Ask for The Broome Closet booth. 

If you enjoy primitives the store has plenty of them.

Antique Gathering: Magnolia Ridge

The Magnolia Ridge Antique & Art Gathering took place Saturday in Ridge Spring, South Carolina. This pale blue chippy tea kettle planted with impatients could not be sweeter except it was sold already. Every woman who walked into this booth picked it up. 

This area, arranged between the corner of the barn and a plowed field, belonged to a darling couple Jim and Judi Keith {Recycled Treasures} of Modoc, South Carolina. Judi had arranged wonderful and thoughtful vignettes. The remaining images are from their area.

They had many chippy ladders, windows, and columns.

Even a pink ladder. It would be perfect in a bathroom with towels on it y'all.

This turquoise door would make a perfect photography backdrop. The vintage metal flamingo is not bad either. Your yard is incomplete without one ya know.

To see vintage toys from the sale click here. I did not purchase the two toy trucks in yesterday's post. I was occupied with two cameras and that way I buy fewer items.

Turquoise Spray Paint Transformation

I was armed with a can of spray paint over the weekend. It was a welcome relief from trimming shrubs {forty?}. I painted this candlestick. It was gold. A overly gold gold if you know what I mean. Lacking any patina whatsoever. I thought turquoise might pop on this piece which I paid little for at a garage sale.

I am going to sell it. Eventually.  I placed it down in the den, which I hardly ever show you, and I have taken a fondness for it.

It is the exact fit between the three crosses I thrifted recently. The difficult part of selling is letting go of items you want to keep. The solution to that conundrum is to keep them for a few weeks then sell them.

In further Olive Out news Joe and I accomplished much over five days. The large corbels on the house were painted and gutters repaired. We still have not finished with the shrubbery. Joe accidentally trimmed our Asiatic lilies. Men and power tools are dangerous. Especially when tired. However the flower garden is getting more sun and ventilation. The bunny rabbit has eaten the Black Eyed Susan's. I see the bunny several times during the day. No more snake sightings thankfully. The birdsong is lovely and normal. Life sweet life.
