Get in the Antique Dealers, Call in the charities with trucks.
Then clean, clean, clean that house. Make the garden look great,
and finish.
The second sale was sedate, manageable. Social, and time to chat,
have a cuppa. Long enough to do in 4 hours, then throw it all back
in and go.
You can see throughout, what an eclectic mix it is.
There is old and new, genuine antiques in with reproduction.
Two different types of collectible, actual vintage, along with a
newer collectible that will probably increase in value with age.
Anything old, hand painted or crafted, or of an antiquity nature was there.
Across many cultures and eras.
Just desperately trying to get enough tables and surfaces to put things
out on. Display to best advantage, not crowd too much.
This I actually had fun with. Using a family heirloom trunk to display Olde Worlde style goods.
The quaint, the charming, times gone by, pastimes of yesteryear.
A shop for a day, boutique meets old curiosity shop.
New friend Janice made a sign and called this room
'Collectibles and Antiques Haven'.
Didn't have time to photograph the front, which was a marquee set
up like a little market. Free stuff for kids on school holidays. Plants
and pots.
Clothes strung up on lines, unframed artworks on pegs waving in
the breeze.
