Recently Sourced Home Decor for the Pop-Up Shop

Even though I haven't picked a date for my next pop-up shop opening (I am waiting on weather), I am still busy sourcing fantastic, vintage items to sell. Here are some of my recent finds:

I love these old, vintage, wood, folding chairs (I have one hanging on my wall as "art", and extra chair). I revived them with Wise Owl Furniture Salve. You can buy it from my friend Tina HERE. I made the table from a metal table base that I spray painted and a wood lazy Susan.

I use washers and screws to secure the wood top to the heavy metal piece.

I love this primitive wood shelf with the scalloped beadboard on the back. Based on construction, I think this is a fairly old piece, although the paint on it is maybe a recent addition. All i did was use the salve on it to give new life to the dry wood. The watercolor painting on the wall is by a rather famous, American artist, Dale Hamlett. He passed in 2011 at the age of 89. He painted professionally for 50+ years and was painting up until his death. He won many awards both nationally and internationally. On the back of his painting is a return address label with his name and address in MN, so I wonder if tis was part of his personal collection that he kept.

On the shelf sits some smalls that will be for sale. I love the Japanese Majolica creamer.

I loved the pastel stripes on this vintage Oneida pitcher. Boy, this thing was filthy and took a lot of hot water and Dawn dish soap to clean up. The oil still life is primitive, but very old in an antique frame. I think it is. This was on the back of it:

I did a little research and found the artist's obituary, she passed in 1953

Curating items for the pop-up-shop is one of my very favorite things to do. I am happy with these finds and look forward to offering them to my customers. See anything you love?
