Hanging around American Home & Garden~New arrivals and New Dealers!

Happy beautiful Saturday to you all~ hope you are enjoying your day~

I was hanging around American Home & Garden yesterday with the anticipation of the arrival of our new dealers Cara and Colleen!  I know it must sound funny to hang around an antique shop, but you have no idea how much fun I have at this store!  I call it my stress reliever.  All of the dealers are so fun and friendly and we have become a nice little family!  Here is a picture of our "break" room~

This is where all us dealers have lunch, tag our new merchandise, store our sold merchandise, ect.  This is such a pretty room that the customers are always wondering back here to see it, thinking it is another booth!  Karen always makes this room special to all of us!

So while I was waiting for the new dealers to get set up in their space I snapped some pictures of new items around the store~

One of my favorite booths at AM&G is Chads booth...he always finds the most amazing pieces!  Look at this tole table~(y'all know I'm a sucker for toleware)  the colors on this piece are so beautiful..browns, creams and blues..gorgeous..if you would like to see more of Chads finds~you can LIKE him on Facebook Here this is where you will see all of his new items coming into the shop!  Lots more pictures!! 

English Karyn has a great eye, she just added this great European flip top table and chicken coop..what great pieces to display with! 
Loving that perfectly chippy blue stool and the 3 tiered wire basket.
Karyn changed up her entire booth the other day and it looks great!

This sweet bunny and leaf basket from the 80's SOLD!

Here are a few items I brought in yesterday..this sweet cement basket dated 1980 with leaves and bunny decoration..vintage chicken feeder lights with old style light bulbs~and YES baby European bath tubs are back in stock..(just in time for Father's Day, graduation and summer parties and weddings!)

 Our two newest dealers Colleen and Cara~ and below a sneak peak of their great finds!!  So happy to have them at AM&G, what a great team!!
