These sileage pipes were the first things to sell! We set up our tent poles to have framework to tie items to.

Thank you to all the shoppers who stopped by our Rivertown Antique Company booth! We enjoyed meeting you........our hard work paid off with a successful show.....we are still recuperating from loading and unloading; revamping after sales - standing most of the day - talking and more talking.....but all good...! We love the atmosphere of crowded aisles - happy customers and empty booths.....see you next year!

Almost everything on both shelves of this red work bench sold including the long cubby and the work bench itself!

Galvanized items were the hot seller this show! And my windmill tail was very cool!

This outdoor guy and his bench sold to a lady from out of state! She loved his black hat with a crow attached!
My Cream Can Cart did not sell but sold several cans.

Junk Bonanza is almost here!

Staining - Sanding - Painting.......almost complete.....next up is pricing and then loading! The buying is over - the "hard" work is just about finished.......the FUN part starts Wednesday on set-up day.....we can show our creativity! Will be great to see our dealer friends and see what they have brought to sell.

Sold all of these "motel" chairs last year at Bonanza - wonderful colors......!

Have another great windmill tail - wooden wagon wheels - a few painted cupboards - some awesome industrial stuff - nail kegs - and fabulous feed sacks......and that is just for starters!
