KNOCK KNOCK...

KNOCK KNOCK....

WHO'S THERE???

BOO!!
BOO WHO???

WHAT CHA CRYING FOR...(HA! HA!-I stole that from one of my kindergarteners)

I know the joke is corny but it's totally appropriate for the way I'm feeling about having to leave High Cotton.  My Mom and I have had an antique booth over there for almost three years and LOVED IT!!  Kathy (the owner) is incredible!  I have no idea how she did all the things she did and not drop dead of exhaustion.  I was thinking that any day  I'd walk in and she'd be layed out on one of the sofas in the store or something.  I cannot tell you how wonderful she and all the dealers were over in Woodbury.  The drive just got too much for us.  I work full time, my son is playing high school sports, I junk on the weekends, try to play tennis some for my tennis team, and don't even get me started on the house, yard, etc...  Something had to give and the most reasonable thing to do was get a booth really close to home.  We've been scoping out Rockin B for a while and finally made the jump.  We got our booth up and going last week so I wanted to post some pics and let you see how it looks.  I wanted to do a before and after shot but I never think about it until it's too late!!  Oh well....TAAA  DAAAA!!!
Here's another from a different angle. (Thanks to Denise for taking these.)
Pink Chalkboard Frame--$6
LOVE this little retro stand--$75
This LONG kids table comes with two benches.  We got it from on old Sunday school room in Waycross, Ga.  It's too cute and would be great in a playroom...
This mantle would be so cool over a bed, in a foyer or maybe even over a fireplace..DUH!!  It's only $150...the pics don't do it justice.  GREAT COLOR!!  That's me taking the picture..the one with the Newnan baseball shirt.  Speaking of baseball...I have to include a pic of my son pitching.  (Bragging Mama moment..)  This a pic of him in action when he pitched against EC.  He shut em out baby!!!
And another......
OK enough of that...I am proud though!!  Here's some more stuff....
Soap for sale!!  Small $1.50--Large $4.50  These make great gifts!!
These concrete planters are just waiting for some flowers.  The two large ones are $35 each...the round one is $25. 
Lord do I love old dress forms!!  Honey bun here is $150.  I also have a thing for doll heads...I know it's kinda creepy but kinda cool too.
How cute would this be in a garden...If I didn't kill everything green I keep it and put it in my yard.  It's only $65...
Some more cute stuff..The numbers shown (another crazy obsession of mine) are old railroad numbers.  By the way...the letters that spell out "vintage" and "junk" are for sale.  They are $1 a letter...fun to spell out words and they make a great statement.
OK, last pic...This vintage 4 piece set is so cute and just in time for spring.  It won't last long!!!
I lied...I had to show you a pic of one of my babies.   Well, my 100 lb baby...His name is Pax and he's a big furry bundle of LOVE!!  I'll have to take a pic of my other baby and post it..I feel like I'm playing favorites.

  1. I love that mantel. It's a real beauty! I know you hated to leave all your friends at High Cotton, but I hope you'll be real happy at Rockin B! I love your booth - it's going to be a constant temptation to me!!!

    1. Everyone at Rockin B has been so nice and helpful. Of course, whenever I go to fluff my booth I try to put blinders on so don't look at all the cool stuff around me. I'll end up going in the hole each month if I buy another thing from the dealers here. Thanks so much!!
