It was such a great success the first time, that we’re doing it again. My friend and fellow Brooklyn Flea vendor Susan Blank will be popping up at the shop this weekend- Saturday and Sunday 12-6 with her great selection of frames and her framing expertise. So gather your wishlists and all those pieces you’ve been meaning to frame or pick up something new from our great selection of original antique prints.

In other news: We will be selling fresh flower bouquets for Valentine’s Day this year. Pre-orders recommended and appreciated. Arrangements will be $50 and will include an antique blue mason jar, the best seasonal blooms we can source, a gift tag, and gift packaging. Pick up will be on Monday, February 13th from 5-7 pm or Tuesday, February 14th from 9-6.

As always, we have many other perfect gifts in stock: A new batch of plants including adorable heart-shaped ferns and vintage heart lockets (while they last.)

We will be having our first-ever pop-up guest in the shop this Saturday, Dec 10th from 11-6. My long-time friend and fellow Brooklyn Flea alum Susan Blank of Blank Frames will be selling her wares and offering her expertise. She offers a large range of sizes and styles of ready-to-use blank frames, as well as some vintage decorative art and mirrors.

We are forever running out of our vintage frames or using them all on our own gallery wall, so here’s your chance to frame all those prints you’ve been wanting to frame or to buy an antique map or print to frame and give as a gift.

We will have extra staff on hand to help find the perfect gift. The shop is well-stocked with all manner of unique items.

Happy Holidays!

Can’t believe that Thanksgiving is almost upon us! I have a big family gathering planned and am excited to host extended family and friends. If you are in need of last-minute home decor, tableware, or plants to spruce up your home, we’ve got you covered.

Here are some of my favorite seasonally appropriate items currently available.

Consider bringing plants as a hostess gift.

We will be open next week on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday 12-6

And, finally, for you Christmas enthusiasts….We will begin putting out our vintage ornaments the weekend after Thanksgiving. 🎄

I’m on the road this week searching for treasures for the shop. One of my favorite places to shop in the summer is Madison Bouckville Antiques Week. This show in central New York brings in dealers from the upper tier of the state as well as northern New England. It never disappoints and, so far, this year has been no exception. The weather yesterday was dramatic, but all the storms narrowly passed us by. A few beautiful rainbows were spotted and many beautiful things were purchased.

The plan is to do a quick refresh in the shop when I return. The gallery wall needs a fresh coat of paint, and space needs to be made for all the new merch. (And I have some kids that need to be taken to college. How will it all get done?!?!)

The plan is to open again for the last weekend in August. Then I will be off to the Brimfield Antiques Show in September, but the shop will remain open for normal business hours Wednesday-Sunday 12-6 beginning on August 27th.

Follow us on Instagram to see previews of what’s coming.

Enjoy the late days of summer. See you soon!

While scrolling through my photostream looking for some family photos, the photos of the gallery wall in my shop hijacked my attention. I realize it’s July, not December or January when you would more appropriately do a “best of” thing, but summer is when I have more time to stop and reminisce.

The gallery wall is my favorite part of the shop- constantly changing. Some framed pieces sell before they make it to the wall. I often post photos on IG of just-framed items laid out on the wood floor- too excited about them to wait to share. The alchemy of a repurposed antique frame and an antique print can be magical.

Hope you enjoy the year’s worth of gallery wall photos and that you visit us soon to see what’s new. We are keeping regular shop hours all summer: Wednesdays through Sundays 12-6
