Fiber Arts Friday-My redesigned booth

A couple of weeks ago I attended the Fiber Expo in Ann Arbor. A few weeks before the show I redesigned my booth with antique props. I staged the booth in my husband's studio before I left but as all vendors know a 10 x 10 space at home is not a 10 x 10 space at a show! It was a bit cramped. I also forgot to change the portrait lens on my camera. Oops. I couldn't get a wide angle picture. I guess it wouldn't have mattered because the aisle was too small to get a good shot anyhow.

Notice the ironing board (got it at an antique store for $10!) and the ladder. Happily I did not have to paint either the ladder or the shutters as they were already weathered vintage green.

    I love it, it looks like it had such a great vibe (and the ironing board is awesome!)

    I am always interested in how people display their wares. I love the vintage items. :-)

    Hi! Looks wonderful and inviting with those special wooden things and baskets! I'm always amazed the beauty of alpacas - they are just the most cute animals! You are so lucky to have them around you! What a lovely photo, where they are walking in line to the shelter.

    Thank you all. I like vintage with fiber. I like the mix of textures.

    Your booth looked great! I do agree that it was a bit crowded in that part of the exhibition hall. I think they should spread it out more and give everyone a larger space since they had hardly anyone in the 3rd building.

    Very nicely displayed! I love fiber better when it's in something vintage or wooden, rather than just on shelves!

    You had a great booth and wonderful product in that booth. Glad we had a chance to visit a wee bit while at the show together.
