New in the shop- porch and parlor on Etsy

I have been super busy this month so far- from the BIG sale at Hanna Antiques, doing good shopping, and taking new clients! However, I am taking a breather between packing items for shipping to post some new items in the shop both local and online at porchandparlor.etsy.com

Brass pineapple candle holder or box... or ice bucket

Czechoslovakian handmade art glass  glass bowls

Hyalyn vase. Mid Century Modern

Locally, I have sold a number of items at Hanna's the biggest was a lovely gold settee. I replaced it with this country French Provencal desk.

These images are from the sale where I purchased the desk and not my own images... or my styling.

On Etsy front page- porch and parlor on etsy.com

I am super excited to be on the front page of Etsy as I type this!!!  It is a rare occurance and the hope of all Etsy sellers!

Early weekend scores- a few housewares and furniture

I love starting my weekend shopping early. Today, I hit many a spot, shopping for everything from vintage rugs and small cabinets for a TV to deals for my antique shop and online vintage store.

are then not cute! They are new old stock lidded onion soup bowls.

I'd love to see some swiss cheese dripping down the edge!

I found a set of 5 of these! Can't want to clean them up and list them on Etsy!

This would be pretty fantastic for A/V components and a flat screen!

Danish Modern, you are my friend! This is a table that I am pretty sure came from a bank. It is standing desk height with slots on each side for the deposit slips! If there was such a thing as a stand-up conference table, this would be pretty cool! It could also work for a table to show blueprints.
