    I love “repair” episodes. It was like watching my dad. He used match sticks to fill in the hole so that he could “rebuild” things . I like to use the clay to repair too! I fixed a set of “courting frogs” for my parents. One of the feet had fallen off. When I was able to match the paint, I felt so good!

    I love the aged architectural elements! There's a little cottage store up the street from me and it's so weird that people go there to shop the door is open, and they want you to pick out what you want and put money in the mailbox they provide for you. You would have a field day there because there is so much. There are doors and windows and old door knobs. And I feel so weird going there when there's nobody there. I'm just going to have to do it and see what happens.

    I do the same thing. If something is broken or needs a little fix I’ll buy it anyway n sometimes I’ll get it cheaper. I think you did a super job on the Christmas tree n ram. It’s kinda fun doing it that way. At least for me. Oh my, what a great imagination you did on the arches. They definitely look like they’ve sat around for years aging. The other salvage pieces were good looking too. I think I need to order the white milk paint.

Just another "notch" on your creative belt! 😻Love how you "aged" the tobacco basket...the wreath found a perfect home! 🏡 Do you personally check the inventory in your various booths or do you trust the the sales tickets or advice of the owner of the Antique Mall?

Restocking.. always trying to make it look it’s best. It’s also good to change and move things around.. giving it that” fresh look”

They sell much better than if i leave them as shelf sitters. People in my area don't buy shelf sitters!

      @GingerChickRehab Thank you. I'm working on my first resale location so I'm trying to learn as much as I can.

    Question, how much did you actually sell it for? And how much did the stuff you used to fix it with cost. How much more money goes into supplies than what you actually profit?

    I wonder if you could do the dry brush layered technique would work on old wood paneling that is in my house… Would you recommend that? Would you sand first or put a sealer first then start? I’d like it to be lighter. I am not in a position to replace it right now and there is nothing wrong with it. What do you think? What would you do?

    I found mine in a garbage canvas on the road, moved. It, stopped and picked it up.
