Fluffing My Booth!

Hello Ladies!
Hard to believe that another week has flown by!  Seems like there is just never enough time to do everything that needs to be done!  Or should I say "things that I want to get done"!  I feel so fortunate to be able to stay home and "play" in my workroom, creating treasures for my Etsy shop, and now for my booth!  Yesterday I took a few things in to the shop, so I thought I'd share a few photos with you.
 I made the Parisian themed banner as a fun decoration, not to sell.  I've hung it from twine with mini clothespins.  Love!  Another one of my favorite things is the tall rust colored flower bucket you see on the left.  I've added a beautiful French label from The Graphics Fairy to it. Actually, quite a few of my creations involve the Graphics Fairy!  I'd be lost without her!
 Almost everything in my booth I've painted or altered in some way!  The challenge is to continually find treasures that I can transform!  But, I am loving every minute of it!
 Still hoping to sell this gorgeous vintage Queen Anne dresser that hubby and I painted.  It is super heavy, so we definitely don't want to have to haul it home!!
 I love this pretty light blue plant stand that I painted.  It was a very boring dark brown when I first discovered it!  Perched on top is a galvanized bucket (I adore galvanized anything!), that I've added a Graphics Fairy French label to.  Behind it on the wall is the same label, and an additional one, that I've added to a black frame with a neat linen like matte.  Tres chic!
 The black framed corkboards were another one of my latest fun projects.  I brought them with us from Michigan, and spruced them up with a fresh coat of black paint, as well as pretty wooden floral appliques.  The piece de la resistance is pushpins that I made out of little tart tins made in Germany (another thrift store find, of course).  I just love them, now I want to make some for myself!!
 And here is my cute little curio cabinet that I told you about the other day.  If any of you are ever in the Marysville, Washington area, I would love to meet you at my booth, at Sasafrass & Company!
Have a great weekend!  Now I need to pay all of you talented ladies a visit!

  4. Hi Donna,
    I love how beautifully you transform ordinary items into works of art and beauty. Your booth looks wonderful. Speaking of booths, I need to fluff mine up today. I sure wish sales would pick up because we have been slower than usual.

    Hope you are having a lovely fall.

    hugs
