Freshening the look of a shop or show booth is the number one rule that a successful dealer needs to follow.
We do not live near our antiques space at Odana Antique Mall in Madison Wisconsin--so when we do get up there we need to do an almost complete reset of the booth. The number of customers is great--and spaces can get to look messy pretty quickly.
I still visit some shops where I have seen the same inventory in the same place with the same grubby tag for sometimes years. Not at Little Bohemia Antiques. Our fresh look is due in a large part to Dear Husbola. He is constantly harping that we need to thin out the booth and not stuff it with inventory. I am listening, oh Yes I Am.
