My New Antique Booth
Hi everyone! Thank you so much for all of your kind wishes yesterday–you are such a wonderfully supportive bunch and appreciate you all so much. Yesterday, I delivered my first van-load of goods to my new “home-away-from-home,” the Gristmill Antique Center, where I’ll be renting a space (7′ x 7′ for $130/month, no commission–for those who want to know).
It’s going to take another couple of loads to completely take advantage of the space, but I thought I’d show you a few photos of what it looks like right now. Here’s a little garden area.
And a country area.
The large black shelving unit comes with the space for as long as I want it. Did I mention Bob, the owner, is a real sweetheart? He is.
I didn’t have nearly enough to fill it up, but I’m loving my “welcome” sign hanging across the top.
An Adirondack table with a black chest on top and a couple of vintage wool blankets.
Another garden-focused grouping.
Like I said, it’s looking pretty sparse right now, but trust me, I have plenty to fill it with!
Linking up with these great parties:
Bye for now,
How fun, Diana! You're going to love this adventure, and I bet your daughter will end up being a great help to you too. Have a great rest of the week.

Oh, I love it! Wish I could visit and make purchases! That table is really nifty. Congratulations on your new space, Diana!
Mine stared out sparce too but it filled up quickly. Everything looks great. I bet you do very well.
Congratulations Diana! You're going to have so much fun filling your space up and watching your treasures fly out the door.
Your booth is looking quite appealing. Believe me empty spaces are not a problem for very long.
It is looking good. You will fill that black case in no time!
You are the 2nd blogger I know who opened a spot in the last week. I hope you do great!!
Congrats, Diana! What fun news! Sounds like you have your hands full ~ I'm sure the space will work out beautifully for you. Best of luck with this!

It's looking great Diana! What fun!! Let that creative inspiration run wild in there. I'm sure you're going to have great success. xo
HOW INSPIRING! We are in the 'research' phase of renting space in a local co-op in CNY… pretty scarey!!
How exciting! Nothing like getting right to it and filling it up! I think I'd have no problem filling it but I'd still have to thrift some stuff just for the occasion!
You have such a knack for grouping and displaying things, Diana! Well done! BTW – that white wicker piece in the last picture, my mom has one exactly like it that she keeps plants in – love it!
I am so excited for you friend!! Your booth already looks amazing! This is going to be a wonderful journey for you as you are so gifted!! I can't wait to see more of your booth!!! Happy weekend to you!! Nicole xoxo
Congratulations! Let me know how it goes — I miss having my booth at the Newburgh Vintage Emporium, but I don't miss that weekly drive 🙂 I hope I get to come your way soon — can't wait to check out all your treasures!
Thank your for linking up to my weekly "Thrifty & Vintage Finds" party – it's always wonderful to see yours.

Boy, if I lived closer…
It's looking really great! I'm sure you'll have it filled up with more treasures in no time. Hopefully it empties as quickly as you can fill it. I love that floral picture.
Congrats Diana, it's looking great! My kind of haunt 🙂 Blessings, Cecilia
Love your booth space! My mom and I just started renting booth space last month and it's so much fun! We're still learning and working to get our booth filled with goodies. I love seeing other people's spaces and getting inspiration. I wish you lots of luck in your new venture and thank you for linking up at Your Turn To Shine!
Love it! It is coming along nicely… .and now I am missing my booth that we closed last year! Inspiring, Diana, inspiring! 🙂 The banner is a nice touch.
Best of luck with your new booth space! Thanks for sharing it at the Vintage Inspiration Party!
