Good News!! The Frontage Road is NOW open!!

That's right, see how happily surprised we all are??!!  The construction that closed us off from the north Springville exits and the construction that required a detour from the south Springville exit have been completed and for the first time in almost two months, you can get off I-15 at the north Springville exit and drive about a block along the frontage road to our store. Hooray!!

So we would like to thank all of you who braved the closures and the detours.  To those of you who found the detour signage confusing and who went home instead of coming to see us, we hope you will try again.  We are looking forward to seeing you all soon!!

New Items at Treasures South and 1/2 Price Blog Followers Special!!

All of today's New Arrivals are to be found in the South Treasures Building.  Next week we will feature new items in the North Building.

 Welcome all, I just wanted to show you some of the latest arrivals at Treasures.  One of our dealers may have just brought in that item you have been searching for.  Above we see a charming Victorian Era framed print of a mother and her two children.  You can find it on the end of the last isle in booth HH.

 The doll to the right is a wonderful reproduction and can be found in booth #300


Above is a Victorian Era Pillow, perfect for the Fourth of July! It is in a front display, near the door. (Dealer #800)

The great spinning wheel to the right belongs to a new dealer, #557, she is down the 3rd aisle, and is the 3rd booth on your right.  The quilt behind the spinning wheel is a stunner, it is from the mid 1800, and has never been washed.  Oh, and right now this dealer has 20% off anything that is red, white or blue!

 This charming gold leaf table is so sweet, and has the traditional red peaking out beneath the gold leaf.  There are also flowers decoupaged on the top and shelf below.  It is in the first aisle on the right, dealer #170

The white dress just came in last week and is on the third aisle in booth #175, while this great 1930's wedding ring quilt is down aisle 2 on the right in dealer #800's booth, just look up!

The black chest has a wonderful shabby patina, and is under $200, (dealer #313) and the Pink Freud sign in in booth #160, and is $13, its a reproduction style tin sign.

And if you are looking for a school size abacus you will find one in Dealer #007's booth, down the second aisle 4 booth from the back on the left.

And now for the blog special.  If you sign on as a follower and come in and tell the clerk at the desk that you are, you can buy this set of original oil paintings, in their wide ornate frame for half of their marked price!!  The paintings measure approximately 12 by 15, with the addition of very wide ornate frames. (They are to be found down the third aisle in the back left booth!) 

Our Blog Followers Are ALL Winners, But Mike Got the Prize

We would like to take a moment to report on our Birthday sale.  I was out of town at the Farm Chicks sale in Washington (Yeah!!), http://pollyanna-reinvents.blogspot.com/2011/06/fleaologists-disguised-as-farm-chicks.html But according to the numbers, our Birthday Anniversary sale was a smashing success.  I just feel bad that so many of our wonderful customers did not know about the sale. In fact yesterday I had a darling lady ask about when our Birthday sale would be.  It was so hard to tell her that we had held it last weekend. 

Of course for many of our great customers it was a great weekend of bargains and Treasures.  Here we see our blog follower, Mike, who won our blog contest at our Birthday Sale.  Mike is a regular customer, so it was fun to see him win this garden armillary!  Turns out he has a love for garden sculpture, lucky Mike.

Thanks to Mike and the others who took the time to print off the form in the last blog to enter our blog contest.  Mike says he found lots of great deals at our outdoor flea market during the sale.  Sounds like the Treasures Birthday/Anniversary Sale was the place to be!!

Thanks to all of our great customers who came out to help us celebrate our 13th year in business!!

Dealer Kathy Specializes in Antique Fabrics and Quilts

Our dealer Kathy is quite an expert in antique fabrics, especially when it comes to quilts and antique clothing and accessories.

 Here we see a charming pioneer era child's dress, with a tiny sprigged print.

 Note the wonderful antique pioneers bonnets, they make quite a patriotic gathering in white, red, and blue.

 Even personal linens of women in the 1800's where charming, note the lace on the bodice of this nightgown.

This lovely inset lace and pin tucked dress is from the early 1900's and is very charming.  I am sorry to say that it found a home between the time that I took this picture and the time I found to blog about it.  The lovely re-invented necklace that the mannequin wears, however, is still available, as are the 1800's black leather women's boots and the charming tilt top, hand embellished table.

Next time you stop by Treasures, be sure to stop and take a look at this remarkable booth.

Bruce Should Have Been a Cowboy ... Because he keeps it moving!!

Fresh Picked will have a new meaning for you once you have checked out Bruce's Booths.

Bruce have several booths grouped into one huge space in the North building at Treasures.  He is an avid hunter and brings in astonishing amounts of stuff every week.  He shops estates sales and auctions, he has people who bring him great stuff that they have found.  He shops regularly in the 'old south' and has very, varied taste, so there's always a good chance that he will have what you are looking for!!

 Bruce has one characteristic that makes him a perfect antique dealer.  He really likes to 'keep his stock moving'.  That's why he would have made a great cowboy.  He not only sells at Treasures, he also sells at shows, including the Walter Larsen Show in Salt Lake City and the Acorn Show in Ogden.  He even keeps up a presence at the flea.o.logy sales in Payson.  The result of all this activity is that he always has fresh stuff in his space at Treasures, and is one of the top sellers.  This set of chairs made a trip to the Acorn Show, then spent a couple of months at Treasures before finally finding a home at the flea.o.logy sale.

 Bruce frequently gathers unusual things not available in the booths of other dealers.  These Japanese fishing floats are a great example.

This is a grouping typical of the items he carries.  clocks, art glass, old pictures, china pieces and some old Relief Society grapes!   The tea pots are also a good example of the kinds of things he carries.

 This fabulous Victorian Parlor lamp and classic Victorian framed prints are also a part of his repertoire!

And he definitely has a weak spot for stained glass.  He almost always has some of the most amazing antique stained glass panels I have ever seen.  So if you are ever in need of some authentic panels, he is likely to have just what you are looking for.  His space is in the opposite corner to the door at Treasures North, just be sure to check out the other booths on your way to see his great assortment.

As you can see he also carries a lot of art pottery.  This jardiniere and stand are stunning, and such a fun shade of green.

Below you can see another assortment of items in Bruce's booth.  You can tell he likes clocks, and the old English Toby mugs are just fun!

And if all of Bruce's great, 'freshly picked' antiques are not enough to entice you into his booths at the mall, maybe the fact that his wife often sells her charmingly wrapped and delicious hand dipped chocolates there as well, will  be enough to get you into the store. See You Soon!!

Be sure to come by and see what new Treasures Bruce as recently stocked.  And if you are a bargain shopper you are certain to find something wonderful, and cheap in his booth at the flea market we hold outside of the Treasures stores for our birthday celebration sale that we will be holding on Saturday June 4th.
