Gotta Go Sale

This is a post, that I'm semi, sort of, embarrassed about, but I'm doing it anyway, hoping you don't mind looking at a few photos that are old ones from my space at Relics, (here in Springfield, Missouri) from last year. I wouldn't take pictures and post them on a bathroom wall, of what my booth space looks like right now. pretty much like a tornado went thru a junk store... yep that's pretty much it. 

These are old pics so it doesn't look anywhere

 near this good in there anymore.

I'm closing my space out by the last weekend of this month. On July 27 and 28. The reason I'm posting all this mayhem is that big architectural window in the center...it has to go. It won't fit in the back of my husband's suv and I'm not paying someone to haul it home for me. I don't have anyplace to put it, but it's super cool piece. It's an actual window (no glass panes, though) that is probably about 7 to 7 and 1/2 foot tall, in good shape. It would be so great for an outdoor arbor, or for a gardener's shed...so many wonderful ways to use it, except I don't have a place for it. I'll probably kick myself later, but at this point in time getting my husband to try to build something wouldn't be practical.

I also have a couple of tables and small tabletop bookcases that I've used for display that now need to go too, and they're marked at a good sale price. It all has to go, so if you're local and want to see about any of it, it's at Relic's Antique Mall, on West Battlefield, just west of Kansas Expressway and the Grizzly Tools Showroom. I have $95 on the big window, a real steal. Now remember, it's big, and behind a bookcase, so it will require some manpower to untether it and haul it to a truck. First come first serve. My booth is the first row to the west of the restrooms and tearoom, it's in the middle of the store, on the west side of the aisle. 

Just about forgot that I have two or three old doors also, one is 17 or 18, the other ones are 25, (but not marked at this time) also behind furniture. I was hoping I could get those out for whoever wanted them on that tear down weekend.

Most of all of this is gone, 

except the wonderful white metal fence gate is still there, for $50 I think.

I still have some smalls for good prices, too.

OK, I'm done groveling.

 I just need to see this stuff gone

 so it's not home in my garage...my marriage won't stand it.

thanks guys,

Be Inspired: #148 Need a little Inspiration?

We had a Patriotic Party last week, but I invited everyone to feel free to share other posts that you had been working on. I didn't want to leave anyone out you know, and wow, so glad that you all shared some of your other Summer posts and projects. I wouldn't have wanted to miss these...

Evidently I have a "thing" for this color blue, since I realized that last week my feature was another fabulous blue piece of furniture... who knew? You'll want to check out this Farm Style Pantry Cabinet from Andrea at Town and Prairie. Andrea was having trouble coming up with a makeover plan for this old cabinet, but once she did, she gave it new life and a whopping personality.

it went from this

to this

Love the grain sack on the door, great job Andrea!!

Take a look at these spheres

 that Marty from A Stroll Thru Life spray painted.

 Isn't this a beautiful vignette?

I just love the simplicity and vintage charm on the front porch of

 Ann Marie at Musings of a Vintage Junkie

with these gorgeous red geraniums in this raw wood crate.

You might need a Kleenex.

Are you like me and wilt in the Summer?

I love a pretty chandy and light fixture as much as the next gal, but if I don't have air blowing on me, I just turn into a "hot mess" literally. Vickie from Ranger 911 came up with a great solution...the "Fandalier". As always, she wows me with her amazing DIY ideas and projects.

and a couple of great reclaimed wood pallet projects
