5 Days Organizing Another Dealer's Booth

- Let me start off by saying, Thank you to Linda for trusting me with her booth space for the sake of this video, to Sandy & Jeffrey for doing all of the awesome extra shelf work to the space when they didn't have to, Eric for helping lift heavy furniture, Bria Q. and the Vintage Booth Pro Community FB page that recommend this would be a good video to make and you guys for being so patient as I worked on this project. Ever wish there was a Bar Rescue show but for Antique Booths? Hopefully this video will satisfy that itch. I really enjoyed playing with someone else's inventory and stretching my creative styling muscles! This was exactly what the doctor ordered and maybe I'll do it again 😉 Would you let someone else give your antique booth a makeover?

Would you trust another dealer to give your booth a makeover??? 👀
Yes if they were as talented and considerate as you. I think she knows you’ll make it beautiful.
If they are is good as you
If it is you!
I would think that the lady that has the booths would be there helping. That’s a lot of heavy stuff for one person.
Yes, one person shouldn't move those heavy pieces! Great help from those men working next booth!!
I would watch this TLC show, “Antique Booth Rescue” where you travel the country doing exactly THIS!! 👏👏👏
OMG That's a brilliant idea!!! I would love that show.
Me too!!
Exactly!
Yes please !
Great idea!
You tamed the chaos! She has some lovely pieces in her booth, but they were buried in the clutter. It’s so much prettier and more shoppable now. A++
I was admiring all her pieces too. ❤
I'm sorry but that cabinet on top of the glass cabinet freaks me out.GREAT job,a new breath of fresh air.
I thought the same thing! Won’t it crack?
Haha came here to say this. Freaks me out!!!
I added my comment before I saw yours
Thought the same thing. Worried that it’ll topple over and crush someone
I would feel much better if perhaps there was a piece of wood from Sandy across the top of the showcase to utilize the framework to help support that buffet cabinet top
Amanda, I think you need your own television show on HGTV where you rearrange antique shops/booths, etc. You are very talented.
Yes, please!!!
I forgot to mention what an amazing neighbor you have next to her. What a generous bunch of guys to offer to build you a support structure for your shelf. It gave her booth character and also a place for her baskets. They are truly the nicest people.
Like nite & day!
Love the color blocks!
Amanda, I can't even begin to tell you how creative you are...I watched every second of this video and totally enjoyed everything you did and was amazed how you maneuvered everything around and had it looking like a totally different space. And the addition from the guys for the top rack AND the shelves for the bookcase were awesome...love this comaraderie between vendors. This made my heart so happy to see you help another vendor out and totally transform a crowded, haphazard looking booth into a beautiful work of wonder...hope she totally appreciated everything you did for her, as I'm sure she did, but this actually might end up being your calling...to help style other people's booths, but of course I still love your booth and getting to see you transform it. Thanks for making my evening much more enjoyable :)
I don't know what I can say that hasn't already been covered in the comments, but I want to say how much I savored every second of this video. I could watch you rework booths all day long. Love seeing your thought process, how you visualize in your mind, and how you make adjustments and changes. It's all so inspirational. When I first saw the booth, I thought I probably wouldn't shop it/not my style. After your transformation, I changed my mind. You can have really awesome inventory, but if it isn't staged right, the customer walks on by. You get bonus points for not only all the heavy lifting you did, but also for the meticulous cleaning, dusting, sweeping, and repair work you did. Attention to detail! Thanks so much for doing this video!
Oh Amanda you did such an excellent job of totally changing and organizing her booth. It was a cluttered mess before. You gave it a cohesive look. I hope she paid you handsomely for all your hard work. Thanks for the great video. I also loved how you color coordinated the books on the shelves. Genius. You have so much talent.
I was gonna write the exact same. Doing another Space but your own really shows just How good an eye you have for this! Just lovely!
I just started watching & will comment again ... First thought ... I hope you're getting paid for this -- you Now have a specialist consulting business !!!!
I had a friend who was a decorator & a big part of her business was using the existing furniture & rearranging it & putting rooms together .... ( ideas !)
I was thinking the same thing.
I think not getting paid and showcasing her skills with this one will get her paid more because of the vendors who are going to need her services and consultation. Great strategy ❤
The owner of this booth has really fantastic items and now you can see them. Also, the grouping of items really drawls your eye into the booth. Lovely set up
Some people have a talent for doing this kind of work -- you definitely do ( regular fans knew that ) you took a lackluster confusing booth & transformed it -- now open & traversable/ like objects grouped / engaging vignettes/ wall art hung correctly .... 100 % better !
Bet she'll be stunned!( make a short & tell us what she thought )
Please please please do another program like this. I loved what you did and it was great getting into this with you and having the longer program made it great to watch and I'm sure the owner must have been thrilled
What a difference!! You did a fantastic job on your friend’s booth. Now all the dealers at the Factory are going to want to curate their booth. 👏👏👏👏
Wow, Amanda! You sure worked your majic. This both looks 1000% better. There is much better flow and cohesiveness. Designing is your gift for sure.
Amanda you are so talented. That booth is 100x better. Bet she will want you to work your magic on her other booths. Great video.
That lady has A LOT of stuff! You worked your magic! That was a lot of work. I wish I had your energy 😊
As someone that also works an antique shop plus stages for estate sales, I love what you were able to accomplish in only 5 days! Absolutely she hit the jackpot having you there. It's to bad she didn't have someone available to help you with those books! Anyhoo new subscriber, now onto the binge watch of previous videos! I'm a like things together colour sort myself!
Excellent makeover. You have a gift for staging. Maybe a part-time money maker for you. I'm so glad this was an hour video .
Hope you found your tripod.
I also enjoyed watching you love what you're doing.
Hope we see you sooner than later. 🎉
I hope that vendor maintains her space. You did an amazing job. I’d like to know if this reset increases her sales, maybe she can track the items that don’t sell that are wasting space.
Gonna say it again we need talented people with stylistic vision to become Booth stylists for others, her sales are going to blossom
Wowza! I don’t know why I love watching you move stuff around and style it, but I do! It really looks great, the arrangements are so pleasing, full but navigable. Great work!
you need to watch the video of how she organizes her booth at a vintage event. Her husband is awesome also. I admire both of them.
@@user-sf5cd9ir8h OMG did her and Mike get married recently? Mike is an awesome and super supportive partner and we love that for Amanda!
What an immense amount of work. I imagine her sales will be better than she has seen in a very long time. Very kind of you and the guys next door. 👍💚
INfinitely more approachable, readable, and magnetic! Every vignette is exactly what you want it to be and at the same time utterly unexpected.
What a treat on Friday! Thanks styling is definitely your element 👏👏👏
An entire hour of Amanda doing what she does best! Yea!!!😊
What an amazing transformation! Well done, Amanda!
Amanda, you are a girl after my own heart-“But first, a peanut butter ball.” You did a fabulous job changing up Linda’s space! You made it so much more attractive and shoppable-in the excellent way only you can!!
I bet she’ll make more sales as her pieces are lovely and so much easier to see. You did a great job, very nice of you. 💕
You are a miracle worker. I looked at that and thought no way. She has a lot of great items but you made it inviting.
Looks so much better. I hope her sales are better🤞
Wowww I’m 13 minutes in and already want every booth to be touched by your hands 😻 the care you take and how you process through the challenges is so incredible
Once you get your creative juices flowing it’s always amazing! Your love of stuff & hard work shines!
I love what you did in her booth! I decorate the front window in our store every month and it’s like creating an entire booth in two and a half hours, but staying on a theme. It’s so satisfying to give yourself permission to create something beautiful out of a bunch of separate pieces.
The new arrangement looks so much better!
From a disaster to an arrangement.
What a wonderful service you've provided to this fellow booth owner! So inviting ... loved to see the shoppers drawn in! So much to see and it's so well organized in such interesting ways. Love the color blocking on the bookshelves!
Oh man! I'm exhausted just watching this 😂. May I suggest that you invest in moving pads. This would make moving furniture so much easier. You did an awesome job in this space!!! Congratulations! I hope she paid you well!
These are my favorite transformations! I love watching your thought processes.
I did a mini version of this yesterday with my coworker and it was amazing to see how much stuff sold today from that change. Would be interested to hear a follow-up from this one if she saw an improvement as well!
As a fellow Amanda in her thirties (who is also an occupational therapist), ya gotta use them ergonomics friend!! Bend with your knees not your back. Your back will thank you moving all those heavy objects next time. 💕
Okay now that that PSA is over, the space looks amazing!! Would love to know how quickly that booth's items move after the reset.
This is one of your best videos Amanda - and I love them all.
A gift , the ability to envision. A work ethic that is noteworthy. Great outcome!
I think she needs to commission you to do her other booths also...well done Amanda.
What a great transformation! The booth's layout is more inviting and easily navigated by shoppers. Also, you markedly improved its merchandising by removing the books and other "unprocessed" inventory, which is a really important strategy for increasing the booth's attractiveness to potential customers (to me, clutter and unpriced merchandise are big negatives).
You made that space magical❤
An hour long video from Amanda?!? 😍🖤
Kat 🙌🏼 Longer videos will be here to stay!
I bet the booth owner was absolutely over the moon!!!💜
Such a great job you did on this project, Amanda!! Hope you were compensated well! Alot of work, but your little and big touches really show!! I liked how you respected her merchandise and ended up showcasing it well!! She must be very pleased as I'm sure it was an overwhelming job if she has multiple booths!!❤
I absolutely LOVE what you did! ❤ It seems like the perfect job for me too. I don't want to run a booth, but I love transforming spaces with other people's things in their homes, so why not an antique mall where you are surrounded by the beauty of yesteryear? It doesn't feel like work. The reward is in seeing the results. You just created a work of art! Everything is elevated in value when it pleases the eye and draws you in to explore and find a treasure. Your client and the mall will be super pleased with an increase in traffic and sales because you just kicked it up a notch. I think an antique mall is sort of like an old neighborhood. As homes are restored, it increases the value and beauty of the neighborhood overall. And for people who cherish the things of antiquity, it's wonderful to meet others who also appreciate giving old things new life. Bravo! 👏
I think you need to do this for a living....staging booths or even staging people's homes, you sure have a eye for it! I think you have the best booth in the mall that is why you do so well....can't wait for the next video!❤
If you had the time, this could've been three videos and teaching videos at that! That book nook could have it's own video - because it is so interesting! The goal was met in that her stuff is now "more visible" and showcased!!! Even though it was a lot of work, rearranging the stuff just brought in and priced, it is now a totally better space. She should have you do her other booths as well, now she will be making more money! Amazing video for me! A future request - please do a video on color in booth display. And please do a video on your vignette's with grouping items for display. TYFS!!!
You have a gift, Amanda! Amazing transformation, and so much fun to watch your process. Great job!
As a fellow vendor that has been doing this over forty years, you have a talent that not everyone has. I hope you get to share your talent with a larger fan base. I enjoy watching you create with new ideas. What a great idea for a show! I’m with the rest of the gang, in that it would be a show I would watch. I already do! Your videos are full of inspiration! ❤
WOW! Amazing revamp of this booth! When I initially looked at the booth I thought, "it doesn't have much that interests me." Now I'm like "let me in there! I got money to spend!!" Excellent job, I totally ENJOYED this video!!
What an amazing transformation! I also love the corners.
A thousand times better, you can work booth magic like nobody's business! Loved the long video and great to see you.
This just proves it's not the poker hand that matters its the poker player and YOU are a master! Beautifully done.
What an amazing transformation. I loved watching you do this
Amanda, I just want to share my experience. I’m a retired nurse & I also owned an antique store in Sonoma County, CA. I’m concerned that you’re lifting & pushing so much heavy furniture by yourself. I’ve had 2 back surgeries so I know of what I speak. You’re young & strong but it only takes 1 move to injure yourself. Please be careful & get others to help you. Hope I’m not being harsh. 💖
YES❤❤❤
I was excited to see you had a new video but didn't think I could sit through over an HOUR of you fixing up someone OTHER person's booth. BOY was I WRONG! SO GOOD! You have such a great eye and the way you put the various items together in their little vignettes was so satisfying to watch! BRING on the new series of hour long Booth Makeovers! I'M HOOKED!
You could definitely do this as a job. I hope Linda reimbursed you for all the hard work - her sales will be up for sure!
Where there's a will, there is a way! Great job!
You always do an amazing job... you really gave this booth a complete makeover. I love it when you can use what you have. I can't wait to see more great job
Great video on what you can do with a full booth! Love the longer video!
If it was you Amanda - YES! I’d love to see what you would do with my booths. 😊
Awesome job! You have have such an eye for design. You really showcased her beautiful collections! My favorite episode. 🌹
I was cheering you on the whole time! Super fantastic Amanda!
me too!! I was like telling her, no !..change that cabinet..and fews seconds later she was changing it. It was fun to watch..
Job well done! So much more customer friendly. You have a definite talent. ❤️
What an amazing job you have made it look so much nicer and professional you certainly have an amazing eye ! I m sure her sales will go up now 😁🇬🇧❤️
You did an amazing job! Quite a few hidden gems in the booth. You made them shine.
Spot on!❤️well done!❤️A Lockett’s booth!❤️
I could have watched this for HOURS! You are a genius!! When you started rearranging those books on the shelf, I was like “dang girl”. And then the furniture placement, the smalls, the art… I don’t know what your arrangement with her was but when the stuff in that booth starts moving (and it will) you should get a cut - no, really. (Or pay for your next chiropractor visit ) And the neighbor guy was AWESOME too!!!
One of your absolute best shows. Keep it up, girl.
Ps - that foldable black metal piece at the end is a saddle rack for what it’s worth 😬
Your can-do attitude it absolutely incredible Amanda! I don’t care how much this vendor paid you it was not enough! You took such care transforming her space! ❤
Amanda, you’re like a miracle worker! The booth is transformed. It’s somewhere I would actually look into. As it was, I would have walked right past. It was too chaotic.
Absolutely an amazing transformation. I could watch you do this all day long. I really enjoyed this video.
Would the bed frame go with the head board in her other “fancy” booth? It was next to the dresser you moved. You are very talented - TFS! I would definitely watch and love more of these videos!!!❤
I just witnessed a miracle Saint Amanda. Absolutely amazing.
Wow!! That was a LOT of inventory you had to work with! You have such a talent for staging!!
Curious to see if sales increase in this booth with the new arrangement.
Undoubtedly! They will increase! 😊
This is so addicting to watch! Alot of work, but wow what a difference.
What a transformation!! The owner should have some great sales thanks to your creativity. You have a whole career in just this if you ever want to. Enjoyed the video. Great job!!
What sorcery is this? Yes, you can do magic!!
It’s not magic, it’s talent and hard work.
When you have it you have it! You turned that unshoppable booth into a thing of beauty!
I was so happy when you tightened those table legs😂. That booth went from one I would have passed by to one I would have shopped. You did a great job as usual. The boys next door were awesome…that was super nice of them to add that corner.
Girl!!!! Fire Fire FIRE! Watched twice already! ALL of it…❤❤❤ Thank you for sharing!
It's so good. With the price of lumber for him to help you out like that was awesome. I still feel you should rethink how you approach the physical labor involved, maybe wearing gloves and stiff like that. But you're skills are undeniable, and the comraderie made everything better. I'm glad I chose this channel.
That looks fantastic !! 100 girl! I love the back area with the books too. And I totally get having fun with someone else's stuff. Quick story, my bestie was at her future husbands apt for the first time and he had to go out for a job told her she could stay. she was bored and rearranged his entire living area. Freaked out that she did it and left!!! LOL. alls well that ends well, they've been married for a long time now. :)
Been doing this since 1998...WOW! Artistry at work; real soul satisfying!!!!!!!
The magic you work is unbelievable! At this point I would not only trust you with my booth but with my life. Completely gorgeous.
Why would she have all those books in a “Primitive “ booth? She should have moved all those books herself. I felt so bad for you. With all her books and booths maybe she should dedicate one to a “Library “ booth. 😉. Amanda every thing you touch is magic. You are amazing. You are the GOAT in booth staging.
P S. I think that guy wished u would stage his space. Was he hinting?
I have such anxiety from having that hutch on the glass counter!!!! Please take it off because that glass is going to break! It can be a great bookcase on the floor if you take the doors off. I have a secretary that has a door and no one would shop from it until I took the doors off and put it next to the secretary!! Plus the hutch blocks the view of the book nook. Get rid of the showcase blocking that corner!! TFS
Wow your display talents shinned in this video. Such a great job and I'm sure Linda will see the change in her sales. Wonderful.
I loved this video, you transformed a chaotic booth to something beautiful where one can now spend time to search for special gems. You have a magic touch.
I have been anticipating your new video. Doesn’t disappoint. I am literally building my walls for my new booth at my local antique mall. So grateful for all your content as a guide.
Loved this!!! You did a great job!! However it really bothers me that you had to be the one to move out the books. I’m sorry but that was her storage inventory and it should have been her responsibility to move them out. Boxes of books are really heavy and can do a lot of damage to your back.
This was a great process to watch! I’d love to see you do a booth that has a much different aesthetic than your own, something a little more colorful or eclectic. Might be a fun challenge 😊
You have the magic touch. The booth looks wonderful, and you can move around now.
Get ready - you are going to be deluged with other booth owners wanting you to do theirs. I have to admit, I saw no hope for it when you started - too much stuff but you organized and transformed it. You could go nationwide doing this…..just sayin’
She should let go of all the books... donate that mess
I loved this you turned this booth into a beautiful money maker. The booth owner will definitely be selling from this booth. There was stuff I didn’t even see in the before, not to mention you couldn’t even get in the booth. Not every customer would try to navigate a booth like the before they would walk by, now you could tell by the video people will shop it. Great job you do amazing beautiful work❤
Wow! What a transformation!! You’re certainly talented! I can appreciate how difficult these jobs are, the final reveal was worth the work! 👍❤️
