Antique/Artisan Booth Photo Opp for Application

Hi Everyone!

This post issss... 
all 'bout the booth, 'bout the booth, no worries... 
OK...
Sorry... 
got that tune in my head thing... and making up my own lyrics! Ha! :)
Well... 
Local opportunities may be on the horizon and I want to share them here for all to see!
A really neat (which the word neat doesn't even encompass what I mean) place just opened up around where I live and yes...
 did I say neat?? 
Ummm fabulous... Annddd awesome...and phenomenal... 
Like...
 beautiful and full of character kind of place
 opened up called 
Vinterest Antiques!

Can you tell I'm a fan??

They refer to it as "Pinterest come alive!"  And it truly is.  They support local Artisans, DIYer's, and Repurposers...
like myself...((ahem))

SOOOOoooo...
I am teaming up with some other "re-purposers" and "pickers" and applying for a space in this place!

We did a Photo Opp for how our space will look and added some photos of our unique and antique items to show the kinds of items we sell and have sold.

This post will be a part of our application for one of their big booths!

So here are photos for the 1st teammate
who just named her business...

Dixie Renegade


Garana has some really cool things...


She makes belted chairs and rockers, lots of fabulous chalkboards, customized decorative guitars, refinished furniture, and the list goes on and on. 



Look at these tables... she added graphics to them after painting and staining them!! 


She is also hoping to add an antique wardrobe of vintage clothing to her space in the near future!  Now to find that Antique Wardrobe... hmmm... I'm sure she will!


She combines her skills for repurposing with her love for picking and adds her unique finds and creations to her booth. 
And did I mention she makes soap??  Good smelling soap! :)



She distressed and added chicken wire to this cabinet and sold it the other day!

This girl has a great space and she's got some skills! 
I would be honored to partner up with the Dixie Renegade!!

Next up...

KJoyner Designs 
(that's me!)
(aka Creative Ambitions)

I have been working on my art and selling in a current booth in another town.

Vinterest would give me an opportunity to expand and grow as an artist, repurposer and creator.

Of course, I love to combine my mom's vintage pieces and antiques with my displays!


In this picture... you can see a lot of my creations like the crate lid checkerboard, the crate panel sign, my ruffled door, artsy painted furniture, and my pine cone trees, and of course my art!

Mom has all the old baskets and buckets that I like... and just look at that antique baseball stitcher in the photo... what a great piece!


She will be adding the fun antiques to the mix... things like this antique donut filler!

LOVE 
old wood crates and lanterns...
 mom has some great stuff!! 


Fits in well with my folk art paintings... don't ya think??
Even the abstract pieces that I will add to the mix would blend in well with all the yummy metal and wood!




Aside from my paintings and my DIY creations, 
I also like to dabble in mixed media art.
I think Vinterest would be a fantastic place to share my love for creativity and for mom to share some of her nostalgic pieces!

Finally...
we have  
Memories On Market
Memories will bring furniture and classic pieces to our space.


Rosemary is a picker and buyer and loves to find a good bargain!



She opened a shop in her hometown to sell her wares and to help others pickers to have a place to sell their finds and repurposed items! Just spreading the love! 

 



They have an array of items that will appeal to a lot of buyers!
Her husband and her also repurpose and refinish furniture, as well.


It will be a great experience to team up together and 
create a unique space at

We will definitely bring...
 "a little bit country and a little bit rock 'n roll"
to our space!

Hope we get a spot! :)
