Christmas Shopping Fun at Haupt Antiek Market...


Yesterday, I stopped by to visit my friends at this month's sale at Haupt Antiek Market in Apple Valley, Minnesota!  My daughter and I were dealers at Haupt for 3-1/2 years and it is always fun to see everyone and the wonderful items they have for sale!  This month's theme was Holiday Traditions and the place was full of wonderful Christmas goodies!  Thought I would share some of the great items and vignettes for those of you not close enough to stop by!  There's lots of eye candy and fun ideas from all of the creative dealers!




















Outside the shop had lots of great greenery and arrangements...




I love how this old tin picnic basket was used ...


Hope you enjoyed the visit and are inspired for your Christmas decorations, too!  The next monthly sale is Dec 2, 3, 4, and 5th~ Silver and Gold...I can't wait!

I am linking up with Vintage Inspiration Friday

Until next time...
Linda

  3. This looks like such a fun market, Linda! My favorites include the ice skates with greenery in, the sheet music covered hurricanes, and the old bed springs as a display for all of the ornaments. Now that's an original idea! Thanks for taking us along:)

  5. Linda, thank you for you constant inspiration. If there is one thing I've learned from you, and actually I've learned much more than one) it would be that ANYTHING can be used in decor and display. Thank you for another inspirational post!

  16. Thanks for taking
    these great images,
    Linda! I soooo wanted
    to go, but we were
    very OVER-scheduled
    last week, hence the
    longing to play hooky
    that I wrote about!
    I'm hoping to stop by
    in December....Have
    a wonderful Thanksgiving,
    dear friend!

  42. Great vignettes! The picnic basket it beautiful. My sister has an old box spring that's not working with the bed she bought with it for some reason. And it's that cool turquoise blue color. I NEED to get her to cut some springs out before her son tries to scrap it!

  45. Linda, Thanks for sharing!!! I love the red window frames & the word MERRY above them. And all the skates! A couple of years ago I bought a pair of childs skates (white) & frosted them with CLEAR glass glitter. I replaced the dirty ties with vintage cream seam binding & silver snowflake trim. These are hung in the middle of the wreath (covered in snowflakes) in my guest bathroom. Skates just make me smile! HUGS!
