Sand Point Antique Show Here We Come!

Here is a sneak preview of a tablescape for our booth at this weekend's Sand Point Antique Show. The show is Sunday, October 11, from 8 a.m. - 4 p.m.

Cough up the higher admission price and get in the door bright and early at 8 a.m. For more information on location and admission prices, visit their site.


Remember these ugly duckling lamps?


Here's two of them all gussied up and ready to go out the door on Sunday.

The third one has been adopted for our home, and I'll show that reveal as soon as it's ready.

Sunday is going to be a tiptop show. Please come by and have a bunch of fun with us!

My new torch

Here’s my favorite new tool – a propane torch! I’m going to use it to darken metal finishes. I have promised my retired firefighter husband that I promise to be extra, extra careful while using it outside. I set up a place in our backyard, with a hose nearby. Our nice neighbors on one side will be able to see what I am up to, but they are used to my crafting shenanigans. My husband had the brilliant idea to use our retired charcoal barbeque kettle as my work platform. Stay tuned for a picture of the junk lamp candelabras that will be making their debut at the Sand Point Antique Market on October 11.
