Let's Talk Vintage! #49: Antiques in the Park Part II

Welcome to Let's Talk Vintage!
Every week vintage lovers join
together and share their latest
finds, inspirations, wares, 
projects, you name it.
Every Tuesday starting at 9 AM!

Come join the party...

This week I am sharing more snapshots

of the antique show in the park

from last week. There are so

many more great things to highlight!

 

I seriously wanted to buy these two

department store Christmas soldiers.

I'm having a Nutcracker

birthday party for Bebe soon. How

cool would these have

been at the front door?

 

 

 

 Probably should have bought them

The asking price was 150.00 for both!

 

This dealer was really a creative sort.

You'll see the chair below that also

came from this booth.

 

 

Look at this repurposed chair...

with lots of creative flair!

 

 

Read this sign....
It tells a lot about the way things
 were back in the late 1800's. 
 Instead of typing: "Warning Bridge
 Weight Capacity is ....." someone
came up with this verbiage.
Apparently it was James!
Ponderous!

These two pieces are interesting.

Nautical and Industrial.

So unique!

 

 

You can't help but want to reach out and pick up some

of these vintage letter press blocks. So fun!

 

If you look closely and read the tag you'll

find out these aren't early bowling pins.

 

How awesome would these be to decorate with?

 

Really cool!

Be careful... later on

you may start craving a root beer!

 

Ooooh. This display is all about 

"cozy cottage charm!"

 

Yes, please, may I have this!

 I love the galvanized wash tub

 "turned beverage holder" idea.

 

My friend and I split the cost of this rope.

I've wanted to make an end table for our

lake house after seeing some on Pinterest.

 

We joked and said we're gonna get

together and "make stuff"

out of rope for a girl's day out.

 

 

This is Kathy....She's

very into vintage. Should be fun!

Now, here are this week's features:

 

Tis' the season! The season

for dealer's to start stocking

their shops with Christmas treasures!

Sharon of Blue Willow House found a

wonderful selectioin of vintage

Shiny Brites.

 

Look at this cute vintage yellow barn!

Dianne from Deanie's Stash found

it at a vintage toy auction.

Can you picture it, decorated

in a holiday vignette?

 

Adina of Simply Country Life shared
her chalk paint dresser makeover.
This should help motivate me,
I have a dresser and the chalk paint,
I just need to get out and paint it!

and Tammy of One More Time
shared how she turned some
of her daughter's wedding decor
into a Fall vignette!

A big thank you to all who participated

Let's Talk Vintage #48: Antiques & Art in the Park

Welcome to Let's Talk Vintage!

Every Tuesday at 9 AM, I host a link party for lovers of all things "olde." You know you've come to the right place when it feels like you are right at home here!

This week I am sharing about our local "Antiques in the Park" flea market which is held every Memorial Day and Labor Day. I was helping my Dear Hubs sell some of his summer finds and then a friend of mine joined me to go check out all of the wares. We had a great time!

There were amazing treasures EVERYWHERE.

And so were the people, hunting
for their favorites.

Once again I am reminded how blessed I am to be living so close to some awesome venues.

 

East coast pickin' in Pennsylvania, oh yes!

 

There were fun vintage things...

My friend noted that this Coca-Cola

cooler looked like something that

could be found in an airstream camper.

 

There were American Picker-ish kind of things...

 

Beautiful things...

 

And some very stunning things...

 

Including these hand Crafted things....

Yes, those are depression glass

dishes being used in this stained

glass art. Amazing!

 

That is a heart candy dish!

 

 Meet Cindy... she is the artist and creator of this beautiful stained glass art. She calls her business "The Angel Factory."

I think she could, and should, do a juried art show.

 

Then there was this booth, host of
another fellow Etsy seller, Jolisa.

Check her shop out by searching
for The Crimson Button. 
Look at these cool teaspoon
key chains. The hand stamped
wording makes them
special and unique.

Her window "signs" were
 all hand painted.

There were also colorful things...

Gas station things...

 

Groups of many things...

Clever things....

Loved the globe lamps!

In fact, this whole booth

was filled with creative pieces.

A+++++, if I were handing

out the grades! 

 

 

 

This dealer had some oldies but goodies

 

 

Loved her shelf of tins.

Looks like it came right out of a general

store stockroom.

 

And there were some unique things.

How often do you come across

a Barbershop post?

 

This was all in a town right next to mine.

Literally just minutes away,

held twice a year.

 

I did buy a few things.

Couldn't resist!

I'll share them with you later on

 

BECAUSE...

 

It's time to check out
this week's features:

Newcomer to LTV, Catherine of Ornate
Splendor, made these gorgeous
pumpkins using vintage found items.
She decorates for a local B&B.
Impressive!
 

 

 

Penny of Penny's Vintage Home,

shared some really cool barn

houses found right in her

area. I hadn't even thought

about turning a barn into a house.

These are fabulous!

 

 

and My Sweet Cottage

shared her revamped

porch. You've got to see

her finds and how she

transformed them!

and Meg of My Vintage Life showed us
her "new" antique cutlery. What
delicate designs!
