Irish Linen Press

Hello all!

While heading to my mother's home one day, I saw a garage sale sign.  It is a good thing my mother wasn't with me because I took the car on two wheels to make the turn!  She is always concerned with my driving when on the hunt for garage sales.  I see her hit her invisible brakes many times.  I am sure I am not alone when I say I brake for garage sales!

Anyways, I stumbled upon the most beautiful linen press of all time.  The previous owner got it overseas when her husband was stationed in Germany.  It is truly one of the most authentic antique pieces I have found to date.  I had to snatch it up at the price she was asking.  I mean this piece stands the test of time.  You know worm holes, small fixes not just cast aside.  Can you believe it sat in my mother's garage for almost an entire year!  Unfortunately, it just doesn't fit anywhere in my house currently.  I just had a hard time parting with this.  With much sadness, I had to place it in the shop to sell.


 
I think it is a steal at the price I have it at.  So far, no bites.  Maybe subconsciously I have it priced higher and perhaps I will have to find a spot for it in my house.  Hubby would just love that!!!

Around the Shop

Today I worked at the shop where I have my booth.  Since it was a little slow, I thought I would snap some pics with my phone to share with you.  We have some many talented vendors.  Here is just a sample of what is in the shop.













There is definitely something for everyone!!

The store

Well, thanks for all the kind words about my booth.  I've taken new pictures since all of us came in and redid our booths.  Here is my new and improved area.



It has a few new pieces in it.  I mostly rearranged after I brought in the bookcase.  I had a couple of people ask about the location of the store.  So, I thought I would share that info and some pictures of the other booths.  I only got pics of about 1/3 of the booths but here is what I have to share with you.

The store is Salvage Sister's Antique Market.  Address 398 E. Jefferson St., Franklin, IN 46131.  Phone number 317-736-4353. 












Due to poor skills with my camera, the pictures don't do the booths justice.  If you are ever in the area, drop in and check us out.
