Art Angels....Out with the old, In with the new!

I was busy this afternoon at my booth at Art Angels moving EVERYTHING around.  Took out some things and moved in some new things.  Hope it gets noticed.  It looks better, less cluttered.  What do you think?

My shop at Art Angels 

These are the collector plates I picked up at a great price....
and selling at a great price

This is the little table I repainted..
pretty in pink and white








This is a great wood table ...with the Elvis Cookbook (or what you shouldn't eat)
Also added the stain glass hanging picture there


Okay there is the vintage purse...hated to part with it...but now it is in my shop ready for you to grab it!
And the little girl's vest my sister-in-law Sheila made...isn't it cute?

This is my little chest of drawers that has been placed in a better place...

Yes, I still have the orange and yellow glasses with the holder...
Maybe because I love them so much.....also placed the black telephone
table with the lemon plate set in a better spot..note the pillows next to it...
all homemade by Anngela....really cute!

Love the turtle print!

This new shop is right across from mine. Great prices...
