A Major Antique Infusion

We have just gotten back from a trip to the Odana Antique Mall in Madison Wisconsin.  Since earlier this year--we have made Odana our single antique shop location.  We took over a very large selling space with excellent lighting and no other booths on either side of us.  So far--excellent decision.  When we got there this month--the booth had very little left in it and needed a major antique infusion.
 Neat dry cleaners advertising.  Notice the hangers as hangers.

We are not going full tilt Christmas yet--just a sleigh with some ornaments--there will be plenty of time for that with our booth reset over Thanksgiving. Let's not rush our lives by overlooking such a beautiful fall holiday.
 This is a lovely 1919 oil on canvass of a quiet corner in Paris.  Really draws you in and is mesmerizing.
 Three lovely "pull up " chairs.  Vintage, clean and room ready.

A bit hard to see maybe--but a Thanksgiving themed table.
 A delightful 1930s drinks cabinet from England.  Those gold pieces are hammered brass victorian valence pieces.
Blue and white chinese themed porcelain lamps.  That little mustard chest is from a tree farm cottage in Hancock Wisconsin.  All room ready.  An interesting Native American chief painting on canvas.

Time for you to make a trip to Odana Antiques--off hwy 12/18 west.  Take the Whitney Way exit--then west on Odana Road about a mile.  You won't be disappointed.
