The Latest From Linen Haus!

I had great luck finding unique pieces for Linen Haus at one of our local flea markets over the weekend.  The hardest part of setting up this shop is letting go of these beautiful finds!  A few might become a permanent part of my personal collection; however, most of these will be added to the inventory and find a great home via Linen Haus very soon.

Enjoying the process with one of my favorite vendors...
This guy is so fun to work with, which is a big part of why I love doing what I do!

These bottles were hidden away a bit in this great old trunk, covered a bit by some burlap. 
I love the thrill of the hunt!

There seemed to be a lot of old trunks at this market.  If you or a client are looking for a special one, let me know.  I'll be there again often.

    How fun Barbara!! I cannot wait to start having the time to start frequenting antique shows! Love the bronze hands, what a pretty accent piece for a powder room!

    I keep my dish soap by the kitchen sink in an old glass bottle........thanks to Martha Stewart.........one of her first early "tips" that impressed me. Makes a great gift too..........old glass bottle packaged with a container of dish soap.
