Closing Sale


One of my favorite antique malls closed in April. They lost their lease and decided to close instead of move. I'm seriously bummed. But, a lot of the booths were having really good sales and I was able to pick up some things I have been admiring for YEARS for a fraction of the normal price! I am really in love with the Santa mug! Look at the sweet deer on it!
I have loved these dog salt and pepper shakers for a long time, but the seller wanted 18 dollars and I am tooooo cheap for that. With the sale she was having they were only 4 bucks! So I snatched them up. They are from Japan, and I just love their winks. 
A pretty perfect enamel brooch. It looks really good on my red cardigan. Maybe I should have a fourth of july party again this year...
And last but not least, some of the cutest wooden head salt and pepper shakers I have ever seen! They have been in a case for 18 dollars for a long time, but again, with the sales I got them for 3 dollars! I guess I've got a little winking theme going on. 
I'm really going to miss the Harpeth Antique Mall though.

  1. Oh my gosh, I loved the Harpeth Antique Mall. I had no idea they closed. :( That's where the Mister and I were one day and he was paying for something, and spied a vintage engagement ring in the case. I went on and on about loving it and how it was just like my Mom's - and without me knowing it, he went back later and got it - and soon, the rest was history. I'll miss those folks and that place. Sigh.

    That said, you got some really great stuff! I love every bit of it. I've never seen that deer mug with the Santa inclusion before. Sweeet.

    1. that is so cute! i bet you flipped when he gave it to you! (well of course you did, but i bet it was even better because of the ring you loved so much!)
      i am sad it is closing too. i used to go there as a kid and i still went pretty regularly. the two times i went in before they closed i feel like everyone who was paying was like "why aren't you moving??? why are you closing/???"

  3. DUDE! You have so many awesome mugs. You must have so many cupboards filled with them. I love the little wink the lady is giving me on the salt shaker too. :)
