2 Storeys Antiques

As you may have read in my previous posts, I kinda' have a collector's crush on Carter's Creek Station Antiques.  Slightly off the beaten track in just barely Columbia TN, it's an old general store and grainery that houses many, many booths of antique-y goodness.  The grainery is a separate building across the street from the main location that has been growing and evolving over the past couple of years.  There is a space in it that had been converted into a funky, little apartment at one point, but recently has opened as its own antique store.  Carol and Bubba Storey have been one of my two favorite vendors at Carter's Creek ever since I bought my 1963 combo record player/hifi/TV from Bubba and he drove it all the way to Nashville and helped me load it in the front door.  I have since made many a happy purchase from the 2 of them and I am thrilled that they've opened their own spot in addition to their existing booth in the grainery, 2 Storeys Antiques.  They could not be more fun-loving and friendly and they always have fantastic deals on great items.  Below is just the tiniest selection off items available at 2 Storeys.
Gorgeous metal file cabinet and sundries

Like Carters Creek Station, 2 Storeys offers layaway.  Their hours are Thursday - Saturday 10-5 and Sunday 1-5.

New jewelry and vintage

I've been working, hoarding shinies and pounding the pavement for new trinkets to sell or reimagine.
A few new jewelry pieces...










And some "new" vintage...












And some new pieces of "potential"!

The last Porter Crossing Arts Market

Yes, I am doing 2 events with "Porter" in the name back to back!  This Saturday from noon until 9 pm I'll be sharing a hefty space with some incredibly talented friends at the Porter Crossing Arts Market.  For those of you that have attended previous events, we used to be across the street, but that space has been rented, the fine folks of Craftville will still be in the left side of the building, but the rest of the crafters (and there will be many) have moved to the space directly behind the Family Wash.  Tell your friends!  it's the not the most conspicuous area, so look for the banners and the extra tall globe lights.
Stay tuned for pics of new items for sale...

New vintage items for February 2010

 
Twin Velvet Tigers $40 pair  (approx. 12x18)
Raaaaaawr!



Pair of Chocolate Brown Teapots $20
(actually the tiny one is probably for cream)



21 piece Inarco Mood Indigo Dish Set $45 all

Woven Straw Fruit Trivets $8 all


 
Vintage Moustache Mug $13


25 Piece Chinese Serving Set with English Rose Pattern $40 all



Unusual Green Vase $15


Vintage Indian Fabric/Wallpaper Stamp $20
This is not one of those Pakistani/Afghan knock-offs sold as decorator items, this baby was really hand carved & used for it's intended purpose.  I was told that it was used for Victorian wallpaper, but I am skeptical.

Native American Themed Amberina Toothpick/Match Holder $10

All of these items and more will be available in my etsy vintage store by Friday February 19th.
