Visited Slatington yesterday to pickup our first sales check.  Not bad.  For sure it more than covered the rent. See what happens in December.

Slatington Market Place

We have rented space in the Slatington Market Place.  In Slatington Pa.  I'm familiar with the place because it's right next to the Slatington airport.  Many years ago we stop in the antique center and it wasn't to nice.  But new owners took over last year and made many improvements.

Kutztown Extravaganza coming up this week.

The show is coming up this week, Sept. 21-24. As always, setup is Wednesday and the show opens Thursday at 10 am.  We'll start to pack the trailer tomorrow and finish up on Tuesday, and leave Wednesday morning.  Picked up a interesting table in Ithaca, NY last week.  It's used in making pies, with a mixture of tiles and drawers.
This year we moved up a couple of booths, more closer to the other antique dealers that sell similar items.  I'll post photos Thursday morning.

2016 June Festival of Antiques show report

Overall a OK show.  It was 93 degrees, and that's never good.  For the most part, sales where off for just about everybody.
I think we will do the show again.  Next time we'll bring lights, they told us no electric.  But when we got to our booth, electric outlets everywhere.  Plus bring more industrial and less country items.
It's a year away, plenty of time to plan.
