Thinking of transitioning my booth to Christmas and thinking I might start slowly by adding in Christmas items to my barrister bookcase Wednesday.
I know some people get upset when Christmas is out before Thanksgiving let alone Halloween! I’m not decorating my house for Christmas yet, but in retail, which an antique booth is, I feel it’s advantageous to put holiday items out well ahead of the specific holiday.
 It would be fun to hear if you agree or disagree with this idea. Thoughts?

If you need some brass candlesticks, I’ve got you covered. I just refilled my booth with about a dozen of them! 😁
Some other new items this week include a few other brass items, a trivet, several vases, a few bells and a lobster. Seriously, a brass lobster! So cute!
I also added more copper items, a gold colored bird cage, green Indiana glassware, some pottery, as well as a really awesome, woven turkey shaped basket that would make a beautiful Thanksgiving centerpiece. And more, of course!

My booth is located at the Aardvark Antique Mall at 5800 Arbor Rd., in Lincoln, NE. My booth is number 37/38 in the Bethany aisle across from the restrooms. The Aardvark is open seven days a week 9:00-8:00. 402-464-5100

Now don’t be jealous but here’s a picture of my latest thrift haul! 😆 I do find things at thrift stores sometimes, but more times than not they are overpriced, damaged or there just aren’t any vintage items there. Can anyone else relate?

A rainy day is the perfect day to take a walk at the Aardvark Antique Mall. ☔️If you haven’t been before, it’s a huge mall with lots of booths filled with cool finds! My booth is the first booth in the Bethany aisle across from the restrooms. 🚻 Here are a few photos I took of my booth this week.

I think one of the most enjoyable parts about having an antique booth is meeting other vendors and building friendships! I’ve gotten to know Dana from The Revival Rooms Co. who is just starting out as a vendor at the Aardvark Antique Mall. You certainly wouldn’t think she was a newbie based on the excellent job she does on her booth! Check out her page and give her a follow! The Revival Rooms Co
