Thank you so much for all of the useful information you are taking the time to share with other booth vendors. I have a booth in Birmingham AL so I am thrilled to hear what type items are selling in your area. Like you, artwork is a fantastic seller in my booth especially florals. Brass as you mentioned is still a good item. Silver is making a comeback! Any kind of tray, colored glassware, and decanters all sell really well where I am located. So glad I found your channel through Amanda’s Mercantile. I really appreciate all of the great info you both share. Keeping up a booth is time consuming enough! I know you both spend just as much if not more time doing your TH-cam videos so thank you! Keep up the great work! I look forward to catching up on all of your videos and watching new ones!😊
Thank you! We have family in Birmingham and enjoy visiting, though it has been awhile since our last trip and I havent gotten a chance to antique there yet!
I just thrifted and put the brass clam shell lamp that is behind you into my booth. Brass is a good seller for me too. Looking forward to seeing how well your new booth does this year. It looks great!
Wonderful video! I was wondering about the ribbon that you sell. Do you buy that wholesale also? I have not gotten into wholesale because my booth is just a hobby for me, but I can see that it could be advantageous.
Yes! I try to source from environmentally friendly companies whenever I bring anything into the booth. I mainly use Faire for any of my wholesale items since I buy in such low quantities.
You are doing well but we are our own worst enemy because we want to do better. With the economy the way it is people don't have as much spendable fun money. I like your inventory for you wedding rentals. Building inventory takes time and money, you will get there.
My Dear, I don’t know how you are making a Living with a Booth, there are so many now, I am 65 so maybe I just don’t understand, but I have 2 Friends that used to Have Booths, and did great, but it’s sad there’s just to much Competition, I keep to my 40 hour job, which is a lot easier,
It’s all about being in a good location. We have three booths with similar merchandise in each. One booth makes more than the other two locations combined. Since adding that space, I’ve been able to cover about 90% of my living expenses with my vintage sales.
This information is so very helpful! I set up in March '24 and am definitely learning daily.
This was very helpful. I appreciate the information and have enjoyed this series. Thank you.
Great share
It's always fun to see what sells in others areas of the country. I'd like to see more. I love your booth set up!
Great inventory sales and information. I agree that smalls make the rent whether they are vintage or not.
Great advice!! And helpful info. Yes, keep doing more like this in the future months please!!
This was a great video! I'm always tempted to branch out but this encourages me to stay in my lane so to speak. Really valuable insights.
Don't be afraid to try new things! You never know what will work. I just do it a little at a time and see what sticks.

Hi, wonderful tips. Great video

I love my clamshell lamp! I sold a similar lamp out of the booth this month so hopefully yours goes quickly as well!
We have none here. I have to travel at least an hour and I love shopping booths.
where is your booth at?... is it a shared space location?... also, can you share a list of prices of what items sold for?... thx!
Do you know that antiques are at least100 years old? The term vintage is used if the item is at least 20+ years old.

My booth isn't my sole income. Just something I do to pay off my student loans and because I enjoy it. 😁
