Preview ~ Vintage Home FINDS for Dallas Market


Most of the time I'm posting about wonderful finds that I've come across.  Not today.  Instead, I'm excited to be sharing with you some *sneak peaks of items I'll be selling at the Dallas Market Center in January.  That's right ~ Dallas Market Center is launching a new temporary venue bringing Vintage Home FINDS directly to the retailer. 

Oftentimes, designers and retailers are in need of one-of-a-kind furnishings, unique pieces of art or interesting objects to be used for display or props in a home/store.  With the addition of Vintage Home FINDS, the DMC will be making the designer/retailer's job a little easier by eliminating the need for going out and finding that "perfect piece" ~ instead we will be bringing it to them.  

Here are just a few industrial/vintage selections that I'll be taking to market: 

*Above...one of my fave's ~ an old New York Times display stand ~ ideal not only for magazine or newspaper storage but also for various goods/merchandise.


*A collection of various pressure gauges ~ wouldn't they be great as wall art or used in displays on a shelf or table?


*The uses for the chunky table on wheels are endless.  It would be a great place to merchandise wares ~ and would be equally appealing as a coffee or end table.   

*The tip top of a weathered railroad jack ~ an exceptional accessory! 


*The old mail receiving station above is brilliant in this vibrant blue color - it would perfect used as a host/hostess station in an eclectic restaurant. 

I'm happy to be part of this exciting event ~ and happy to share some wonderful finds with you as well.  If you are part of the retail trade, I hope you'll be visiting the Dallas Market Center ~ Vintage Home FINDS on January 20 - 23, 2012 (taking place during Dallas Total Home and Gift Market).  I promise it will be well worth the visit ~ the displays themselves will leave you feeling inspired.   

I'm off to finish up some last minute Christmas shopping ~ and just maybe I'll have a little extra time to scour some out of the way places for more great Vintage FINDS!

  5. Hi Dana,

    I understand your appreciation for OLD THINGS. If they could talk, OLD THINGS would have a very interesting story. I also appreciate OLD THINGS. My house is full of OLD THINGS; including me.

    1. Hi Jean ~ I'm not sure why I've always been drawn to the old and tattered, but for whatever reason I just am. Their stories fascinate me. Thank you for taking the time to stop by Tattered Style.
