Feels Like Spring at Treasures

 Yep, the magic of spring is in the air at Treasures Antiques .... Annette's booth above is full of spring greens.

The booth to the right has frolicking women and lots of whites goodies.

This antique rolling wall map even presents in a lovely aged spring yellow!

... and Rosemarie, the manager of the Treasures North store has the spring spirit as well, as she stands in front of our 'Grand Touring' booth.  If its been a while come in and see these great spaces and many, many more!!

Antique Displays Done Right!

This week, when I was working at Treasures, Pam, a favorite former dealer, came in to shop ... we got talking about displaying collections, somehow, and she mentioned that her husband had recently made her cabinets to display her antique hat collect ... she invited me over, and actually I was bowled over .... such amazing displays!! 

Of course, like all antique dealers in the mall, many of her vintage and antique items came from Treasures, a favorite source for all of us.

 Here are the cabinets he built ...

 This is another display in her bedroom ...

 Her kitchen was bright and cheerful ... and I was amazed at her use of space ... so clever!

 This little cupboard occupies the space that once held a built in ironing board.  She said when they bought the house it was an open alcove ... yep her clever hubs added the door and glass shelves.  How cute is this?

This is a close up with the door open ...  I loved the whole house.  Its amazing.  The first picture is a shot of her laundry display, which I am sure you gathered already.

I hope you enjoyed Pam's awesome displays.  If you have displays you would like to share, please send pictures to me at patula10@aol.com.  We would love to see what you are doing with the treasures you are finding at Treasures!!

Collecting Sea Shells at Treasures

 

A few weeks ago, a customer came in and was gathering seashells very carefully. Her name was Madeleine and she told me that she was making a shell framed mirror for her little sister.  I thought it was such a charming idea, that I asked her to send me final pictures of the project.

 

 

And here is Madeleine's sister, I think she looks pretty happy with such a thoughtful gift, don't you?

Treasures Birthday Sale This Saturday ... and a New Dealer too!

Just thought I would let you all know that we are having  our birthday sale this Sat. As always there will be discounts in every booth from 5 percent to 50 percent off.  The outside flea market starts 8:00 A.M.  That's Saturday September 7th!!  Don't miss it.  

... And while you are there check out this great new dealer Tisha, she's in the back corner opposite the main entrance of the south mall building ... She builds and refinished primitive furniture ...  I took a few pictures just to give you a taste!

Be sure to drop by and see us all on Saturday, both stores and a flea market all below regular price ... Does it get better than that?  I think not, see you then!!

White on White

 

Shades of white is what our front display is about right now ... cool, cool white, perfect for a hot August, don't you think?

 Kathy put the display together ... doesn't it look awesome?  Can you see the difference between the shot above and the one to the right?

 Yep, its the addition of the double chair bench ... more white, perfect!

My favorite part of the display is the lace mannequin.  Kathy also put that together, isn't she a beauty?  Well, an out of town dealer thought so and bought her with a few days of coming into the store, but not to worry, I understand that Kathy has another on the way!

Why not stop by and see her, before she makes the trek to sunny Cal with her new owner?  She should be here all week!
