FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH

There's a fun event it you can get down to Payson tomorrow.  It's a fund raiser for the Peteetneet Academy, which is an old school house that now houses the Payson City Museum. There will be an outdoor market, along with an appraisal event sponsored by the Utah Antiques Dealers Association.  Appraisal are $5.00 an item to be donated to the Museum.  Grab your goodies, and come down and find out what they are worth, have a good time, and support a good cause.
 
SEE YOU THERE!
 

From the Acorn grows a mighty, well, Antiques Show!

I stopped by the Acorn's Antique & Vintage show this morning to drop off a stack of New Century Collectors for tonight's opening , and nosed around and watched the dealers set up for a while.  Wow.  This is going to be a great show.  Golden Oak furniture, glassware, pottery, linens, toys, advertising, primitives.... just everything.  And piled higher and deeper.  I don't care what you're looking for, you stand a good chance finding it at Acorns this weekend.  Here are some pic's I took while I walked around.  See you there this weekend.













 




















 
 

IT'S ACORN'S.... JUST GET THERE!

How to decide.  First in line... last in line.  First day, last day. Hustle & bustle or miss the crowds.  No matter how you like to shop; obsessed with being first to see everything, or scouting out bargains on closing day,  there is only one place to be this weekend. That's ...
 
ACORN'S ANTIQUE & VINTAGE SHOW
 
This weekend, promoter Heidi Wilcock brings her Mothers Day installment of Northern Utah's premier antiquing event to the Weber County Fairgrounds. With dealers from across the west, Acorn's offers antiques and collectibles you just can't find anywhere else. That's why experienced collectors never miss this one.
 
We all know that nobody's mom wants another toaster, and Acorns is the place to pick up that unusual gift.  Or, better yet, take her to the show on Sunday, and let her pick out just what she wants. Either way it's sure to make you her favorite.  And remember, Acorns now opens Friday evening from 5 until 9 for those shoppers who love an early peek.
 
SEE YOU THERE!

Rocky mountain Antiques Festival.... picture perfect!

I Stopped by the Rocky Mountain Antiques Festival, which opens tomorrow morning (Saturday May 7th, @ 9:00 am) at the South Towne Expo Center, to drop off a stack of New Century Collectors for their customers, and all I could think was WOW!  This is a large show, and has something for everybody.  Along with some of Utah's best show dealers, were lots of out of state dealers, and the booths were stuffed with lots of things you don't always see around Utah.
 
It's true, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are a basketful.  First is a 2 for 1 ticket, so you can get in for a pittance.
