Vintage Inspiration Party #187

Welcome back to the Vintage Inspiration Party!

This is the place to share anything old, treasured, passed-down or tattered, but you can also share projects that were made to look old, including repurposed and upcycled creations.

vin-tage (adj.) 1.) used to describe something that is not new but that is valued because of its good condition, attractive design, etc. 2.) used to describe something that has the best qualities or characteristics of the things made or done by a particular person, organization, etc.

At the Vintage Inspiration Party, your links will show up on 4 different blogs, giving you four times the exposure!

Let's see what your party hosts have been up to this week.

Angie @ Knick of Time - Framed Vintage Seed Bag
Becky @ Beyond the Picket Fence - Farmers Market Toolbox

I love this repurposed window from D.D.s Cottage and Design. It looks good and it's functional too!

Every junk loving cook needs a magnetic knife holder like this clever creation from Cheltenham Road.

These nesting tables from Restyle Relove are so adorable. Love the stenciled numbers!

Let's Go Shopping at Mes Amis

Want to take a little tour of the Mes Amis (My Friends) Vintage Antique show last weekend? I didn't have time to walk around once the show opened, but I did have a chance to get some pictures of the booths that were set up a few hours before the doors opened on Friday night. Let's take a look around.....

This is a side view of my 13' wide booth. I was lucky to have a corner spot this time, so I took full advantage of spreading my junk out around the corner. I see a few blog post projects here, here, and here.

I've become a good packer after all these years, and still can't believe the stuff I'm able to fit in the back of my small truck. It's just like putting a puzzle together. That adjustable dress form was coming with me even if I had to tie her to the roof! I'm sure she had a much more comfortable ride back to the new home she found.

I had two tables of jewelry and two tables of vintage/repurposed treasures.
