I am so happy to be able to have the time to participate in Faded Charms White Wednesday this week! It has been awhile since I have and I sure do miss it when I can't! This gives me a chance to tell you about THE DOORS in my booth picture below!
Many of you commented on them in my previous post and I have to tell you how they all came about! 
When I got to the show it was the first time I had even been to the place. I didn't know what the building even looked like so I was kind of winging it so to speak when it came to exactly what I was going to do for display. As mentioned in my previous post, one of the show peeps ( Chet) came up to me and mentioned all the doors they had for sale. They had come off old apartments!Can you imagine? I had seen them all leaning up against the building when I pulled in but didn't think too much of it. I assumed they were going to be put to use somehow.

Did I mention they were......10.00 a piece!! Yep that's it!
I needed oxygen...and FAST!

Good grief did I have a blast sorting through them~ chippy paint flakes flying everywhere~landing in my hair, down my shirt, on my face....HEAVEN!!
The best news is.....THERE ARE STILL SOME LEFT! Yep contrary to what you may have heard~ I did leave a few! Believe me, at that price it was totally tempting to just rack um up and buy um all. So that is the story of how my booth really came together.Totally last minute and completely by chance.
Wish I would have stressed about something else for the last 2 weeks!!
Enjoy your Wednesday!
P.S. To see more pics ~ keep scrolling down to my previous post! :0)

Hi Beth, what a great find that turned into an awesome backdrop! Something about white chippy paint. Do you suppose it's the lead that goes to our brains? lol!
Great post and love those ticking pillows!!

I'd have been tempted to take them all-what fun doors!
Those doors are amazing! I would have had a hard time not buying all of them! I went back and read the previous post and your booth looked fabulous. So many wonderful pieces!

LOVE those doors and your booth idea. It looks smashing! How ingenious...I can just see your mind working full tilt as you picked through the doors. YES!!! I wish I could grab a few...
Thanks so much for sharing the whites and the inspiration . Looks like you are having fun. :-)
Wishing I lived closer about now. I'd snag up those doors in a heartbeat. They make a fabulous backdrop to all your gorgeous wares.
I think we must be long lost sisters becuase I'm just drooling over your style and all that amazing chippy "junk".
Take care,
Kathleen

Amazing deal on those doors, Beth! I'm surprised you left some behind. You're a better woman than I!! lol! Your booth looks like one that I'd walk in and at the end of the day you'd have to politely tell me to leave..... :) Hope you had a successful show!
