I plugged a "few" 😁 holes in my booth wall today and double sealed the painted floor, it was still drying when I left. Two items off the list.

Progress is progress. This past weekend I got the opportunity to work on my booth. I paint tested several different colors and patterns for my flooring. Where did I end up? Well, I ended up repainting the entire floor with the same pattern I had before; with a slight color variation. The old floor was scratched up and tired looking, and now it has a fresh new face! 🎨🖌 In the photos, the paint wasn't dry everywhere yet, but you'll get the idea.
Next steps:
☑️Seal the painted floor
☑️Repaint the wall
☑️Set up booth fixtures
☑️Arrange display furniture
☑️Bring in the treasure
Owning a booth is not for the faint of heart but pouring your creativity into something is such a reward for your soul. 🧘‍♀️ I'm ready to have my booth back. What's your favorite treasure to shop for?

Happy Friday everyone, I hope life is being kind to you. ❤️
**Update on the booth hunt: I'm waiting to hear back from the places that I've inquired to.
**I have some VERY exciting news to share - I can barely contain myself!!
Nothing is written in stone yet, but negotiations are in the works for a new business at the old Sweet Pickins location!
The business concept would be similar with having multiple vendors.( hopefully when/if this happens we can get a lot of our previous vendors back) 😉 It would be under a new name and new ownership.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to rebuild the community of vendors and amazing loyal customers we had, plus lots of new friends!?!
Please stay tuned, give us a follow, so that you don't miss out on any future updates. I also wanted to take a moment and thank everyone for all the follows. I was overwhelmed by the love and support you've shown. I hope you know each and everyone of them is sincerely appreciated. ❤️

Providing an update on my booth hunt: It was a big day of hitting pavement with a great supportive friend on Sunday. Not to mention the amazing love and support from all of you ❤️ Here is where I searched for future prospects:
*The White Cottage
* The Thrifty Turtle
* Paradise Vintage Market

It was very exciting to meet lots of new people and talk about the future potential of having a booth at their establishment. While out and about, I was surprised at how many past and present Sweet Pickens vendors I ran into. It is a beautiful community we had built with the vendors and customers, I hope we hold onto that.
Thank you for all the private messages and comments too. I see several of you plan to join us for our next WhatNot show online. No obligation to buy, you can come and just see what its all about. Truly though, I can't wait to get a booth back! Great things are coming, stay tuned, I'll keep you posted! 🌻
