Back Booth Re-Do

This great cabinet has wonderful old worn impressions on the front of the doors that you cannot see...

I love the old awning...

Lots-O-Yellow...

I love this dress....

All of Mom's starched doilies...

Can't keep this cabinet straighted as everything gets pulled out to look at them...

More doilies...

The back booth got a makeover as well.  All the greens and yellows make it bright and cheerful.  Mom finds these old doilies and works magic on making them look new again.  She washes and starches them and they look great.  Did everyone have a grandmother, mother or aunt who made these?  We had a lot more Jadeite in there, but it sold fast (I think we might have priced it toooooo cheap).  Oh well, wouldn't be the first time!

Here at the rest of the pictures from the Fall Homestead Show in Hico.  I did not get the name of the vendor in the first 3 pictures, but he had GREAT stuff (it was hard for me to pick only a couple of pictures).  I can't wait for the spring show to see all the amazing stuff they will do again.  Have a great Halloween Weekend...Boo!

So many wonderful dealers at the recent Fall Homestead Show in Hico, that it is taking me two posts just to show them to you.  The booths were amazing and I was so inspired by them all.  They have already announced the spring show dates, so mark you calendar for the second weekend in May. 

Pardon the changes on the blog...I am trying to do some updating and have LIMITED knowledge of what I am doing.  Will continue to work it out...any suggestions are appreciated!

Ruby Grace's at The Homestead Show in Hico...















































Here are the promised pictures of our booth at last weekends Homestead Show in Hico, Texas. Have you ever seen so much red? It was fun to do and we had lots-0-reminiscing in our booth both days. I love this show not only for the venue, but it is like a family reunion. All the dealers are hugging and so happy to see each other. The customers are so excited to see all the wonderful things the dealers have brought. And Mike & Brenda (the owners) as so very gracious and wonderful to all of us. The weather was terrific which just added to the great time. It is a great show and I will post pictures from the other booths later (you are going to be blown away). Many of us commented that we felt a little out of our league this year as the dealers really went all out in decorating. More to come!
