New Dining Set and Previews of upcoming restorations.

Summer has arrived with a vengeance here in PA!  I went from not wanting to hang out in my garage all day because I was freezing to death, to sweltering in the sun!  Progress is being made slowly and I will work through my projects.  My latest save is a gorgeous 1959 Drexel Counterpoint dining set by John Van Koert.  It is amazing!  Great lines feature a cherry top and mahogany ends and legs.  It has a very Danish look to it.  It is not mint, but cleaned up well.  I only have 3 chairs and not sure how easy it will be to add to them but any walnut or teak chair would look nice and currently trending are fun mismatched looks in the dining room.  I priced this set less than a recent sale for the table alone and am happy to be able to offer such a great set well under value.  I am also willing to recover the seats for you in black vinyl or any fabrics I have in stock.  You are welcome to do it yourself with fabric you have or buy as well.  My etsy listing is for pick up or regional delivery only in eastern pa, nj, ne md and de areas.  If you are in love and require shipping, my chairish listing should be live shortly and they will arrange your shipping.

The table is totally customizable!  40" wide by 60" in length, but add three 12" leaves to max out at 96" long!  Great for entertaining!  Also note there is a great locking feature to lock in the top when using no leaves.  No accidental separation!

The locking device is easy to reach at one end of the table.  Turn the handle to lock or unlock when you are not using any leaves.

Gallery Showing at Fleetwood Antique Mall

You are cordially invited to view my latest restorations now on display at my booth in Fleetwood Antique Mall. Stop by and see the Heywood Wakefield chairs in all their fabulousness!  My space has been reworked to accommodate these beauties and I will announce when I rework it again but I plan to keep them out there for at least a month. I have also left fabric swatches so please take one along if you need to check your space.  Please check with Karen at the mall for her hold policy if  you need to decide after you leave.  I think she told me they take deposits.   These beauties are offered at my ROCK BOTTOM price if you purchase at the mall and take home with you.  In order to encourage keeping the blue chairs together, I will offer discounted pair pricing but will also allow purchase of a single AT THIS LOCATION ONLY.  Please note that each chair required about $100 in materials and a week worth of labor to restore.  MIX AND MATCH PAIR PRICING!  Want one of each? Go for it!

Because that fabulous wool kilim area rug I have looks SO GREAT with the blue chairs, it is there as well, also offered at a better price than my online shops. AND further discounted if you buy it WITH A CHAIR!

Come on out and have a look!  Spring has sprung and it is a great time for a road trip!  There are many other shops in our area to visit!  

Visit fleetwoodantiquemall.com for Store info.  Hours are 10am-6pm WED-SUN.  Located on route 222 just south of Kutztown.  Please note there are detours on route 662 coming through Fleetwood so you may want to choose Route 73 if coming from the south.

Can't make it out?  No worries! Listings are live for online purchase at

Just wanted to send a quick update!  I have to finish putting the dust cover on and a few screw plugs, but for all intense and purposes, she is ready!  I just added the listing to etsy and will get some better pics in daylight before I add to chairish.  If you are seriously interested, please yell and I can get a shipping quote or work on scheduling a meet up or delivery!  I am so pleased with how she turned out! 💗

The Eames chairs are in the shop.  The bases remove with a Phillips head screw driver for easy packing.  They have some issues but if you always wanted one or 2, you can score them $200 each or both for $350 at the shop!

The Saving of the Chairs, Plus New Items To Make Your Valentine Swoon.

My mother**, the most talented seamstress ever, is getting into the meat of our projects!  She has taken apart each piece of fabric including the piping.  Using each piece as a pattern, she is starting to recreate the upholstery in our brand new glorious Vibe Aquatic fabric from Joybird. 

**Margery has been a seamstress for most of her adult life.  She learned the craft sewing her own clothes and currently has a stream of loyal clients bringing her hemming and alteration projects ranging from jeans to sequined formal wear. I encouraged her to dice up my wedding dress and have 2 gorgeous heirloom christening outfits worn by my children and hopefully the next generation.

The guts of these chairs are in great shape!  Taking these apart carefully allows the cord in the piping to be reused.  Here is the new piping!

After pinning the piping in place on the seat edge, mom fits the new seat on the chair.  Wow! 😍

You can really soon how vibrant and beautiful this fabric is!

I have my work to do which includes sourcing some supplies, sanding and restoring the arms and of course, reassembly!  I am just working on my year end tax stuff to stay ahead of that mess so will be getting a move on.   I have not determined my final sale price for these beauties yet but feel free to email me if you have a serious interest in them.  I will only sell them together, but do have the single chair to do later and will need more fabric so could allow buyer to choose the fabric.  I was thinking of using the Vibe Tangerine.  

MEANWHILE. 

I just added a mint set of Amish Butterprint fridgies to the shop and a nice set of Primary Fridgies. Both are ready to display.  Fresh picked, a set of 3 Daisy/Sunflower Cinderella mixing bowls that i will complete shortly.  I should be able to do well on their price.  My higher priced sets are due to higher acquisition cost and I really am not making much on them, but want to offer the best collectable pieces i can! I have priced the 2 fridge sets for credit VS cash price so save $5 if you have cash for payment.  💰 Have a look!

This pattern is quite wonderful!   I will source the missing bowl and complete the set before it heads to the shop!

Lastly, I took some pics of the Sari blankets. I can get more of these for the time being, so I will gladly ship if anyone is interested in one!  I did not measure, but they are larger than a throw, might be almost sized for twin.  Each blanket is unique.  PERFECT for picnic, beach/pool, music festival, vintage campers and VW bus fans.  Unlike traditional American quilts, these do not have a batting later between the panels.  You will find holes, patches and character in the fabric as these were all vintage dresses.  Imported from India by my wholesaler, they were hand sewn and quilted. Have a look and email if you are interested in one! $50 each plus shipping from 19522.  Available to purchase at the shop WED-SUN 10-6 fleetwoodantiquemall.com

This blanket is vibrant and colorful!  Turquoise themed on one side, orange and warm on the other.  Great home decor item!

Blanket #2 is more neutral in browns and golds.  The fabrics are interesting.  Great for a Boho look, mixed decor and so much more!
