The 2012 Show List-Revised

Courtesy of Pinterest

As I continue to perform a balancing act, of sorts, thru the many decisions I have to make concerning my 2012 plans for Brocanteur Vintage things have taken on a new perspective.  First of all, as of March 1 my large booth at Camas will be gone.  I will still be selling my scrabble tile pendants and the occasional French things, in the small wall space that I have by the register.  But if you want my larger pieces you will have to go to Monticello for those.

This was a VERY difficult decision for me but one that I had to make due to only being able to do so many things at once.  Something had to give and, unfortunately, Camas was it.

What seems to be screaming out to me is that I am going to do what feels right to me.  There are many great shows and I wish I could do them all but I have to pick the ones that are a good fit with my style.

So with that in mind, I have committed to the following shows for 2012:

Portland Expo      March 2 and 3
Barn House         July
Camas Vintage Faire   August 25
 Portland Expo       Oct. 27 and  28
Junk Salvation       Nov. 2 and 3

There is the list and I have probably taken on much more than I can handle but what the heck.  There are still shows like Plucky Maidens that I also want to do but we will have to see.  So please stop by and see us if you happen to be at one of them and don't forget that I am at Monticello also.

Happy shopping..............................

New Pieces For Upcoming Shows

 Remember this piece?  It use to be green....a nice green, really, but it never seemed to catch anyone's eye.

Now it is grey.  A light grey, a true grey.  Something everyone should want in their home.  Don't you agree?

Next, a round dining table.  Nice but not entirely the look I was going for.  In its previous life, it had a sage green (that color again) top and this barn red base.  It looked a little too, too cottage-ish for me and since that isn't the look that I try for I decided to paint the base Gustavian grey, too.  No pictures but I can assure you that it looks marvelous.  Put these two pieces together in a dining room with some groovy chairs and you've got a terrific look.

These two pieces with be at the Junk Salvation Show on May 13/14 in Puyallup along with some demi-lune tables and industrial bits, as well.

Don't miss the show and please stop by and say "HI" if you are there.
