Sick, sick, sick.
Yep! Found at my local Shop 'N Kart. Nearly a complete breakfast - bacon, Chocolate and a donut.
Puyallup Home Show comming . . .
The Antique Feature of the Puyallup Home Show is comming fast; January 7-9. 10 am to 8 pm. We have booths availible.
ADORN YOUR GARDEN… YOUR HOME… AND YOURSELF
ALL UNDER ONE ROOF!
The Puyallup Home Show, January 7-9, 2011, Features a Special Antiques Section.
If you’re looking for cool 1950’s barware, an antique airplane propeller or airplane telephone (yes, there really were phones designed for use on airplanes!), or Art Deco jewelry that’s as glitzy and glamorous in its display as the pieces themselves -- you’re in luck! This year, the Puyallup Home Show, January 7-9, 2011, also features a special section devoted to antique furniture and jewelry, collectibles and art. This show has literally everything for the house and the garden that you could possibly imagine!
The Puyallup Home Show has always been a showcase for garden innovations and decorating trends. And 2011 is the eighth year for the show’s eagerly anticipated antiques section. Dennis Eros, the show's antiques promoter, says it’s been exciting to watch the progress of this mix of new and old at the show. It makes it a fun place for all -- antiques collectors, home show shoppers and garden aficionados!
To help you prepare to “shop ‘til you drop” for the hottest collectibles, here’s what you can expect to see in the antiques section:
Vintage bar glasses, cocktail shakers and other accoutrements of a well-stocked bar are evocative of a more glamorous era (think the Thin Man Comedy-mystery featuring Nick and Nora Charles: a former detective and his rich, playful wife. They solve a murder case mostly for the fun of it).
Extensive collection of glassware from the 1930’s and 1940’s, and bar-related items from the 1940’s and 1950’s.
Sure to catch your eye is the booth belonging to Eric Paul of Consortium Antiques -- a collector with a twist. In addition to traditional antiques, he also has several collection sub-specialties that are truly unique! First, there are his game room supplies, with an emphasis on slot machines from the early 1930’s to 1950.
Then, there’s Eric’s collection of toy sewing machines from the late 1800’s to 1950. These toy machines, which mimicked adult machines, were commonly used to teach young girls to sew. They range in price from $150 to $1,200 for an extremely rare red Singer machine – only 500 of them were made, all in France, so they’re very difficult to find here.
Finally, here’s another piece of history Eric’s booth will highlight – porcelain advertising signs from the 1920’s to the 1940’s! These signs, which most people think of as made from wood, were actually often made from porcelain. They range in price from $350 to $800, and look terrific displayed in groupings on a wall.
The Puyallup Home Show will feature a prized collection of name designer jewelry from 1910 to 1960, including such top sellers as Miriam Haskell, Eisenberg, Weiss, Kramer of New York and Joseph of Hollywood.
You will appreciate a collection of sterling silver charms, which never go out of favor among collectors. The charms are extremely popular, and are often bought by people who want to replace old charms from their childhoods, or who want to start charm collections for their children or grandchildren. Many of the charms are truly unique and feature moving parts. They range in price from $5 to $45, making it easy to start a collection. Look for animal and bug pins from the 1920’s to current day, cameos, gemstone pieces, Art Deco pieces, even Southwest and Native American pieces. Talk about a bounty!
Show hours are 10am-8pm on Friday and Saturday; Sunday 10am-5pm. Admission is $6 for adults; children 17 and under free. For more information call: 360 978-4154.
Do you want to sell at the Puyallup Home Show? That's easy. A 10 ft x 10 ft booth is only $160 for the three days, complete with electricity. Drive up to your booth and drop off your "stuff" on Wednesday and Thursday, January 5 & 6 8 am to 8 pm. You do not have to be a dealer to sell; call us and we will help you with everything you need.

Please Help Save the Sand Point Antique & Design Market in Hangar 30. Send an email to the city counsel and mayor.
Dear Sand Point Buyer, Seattle's DPD (building inspectors), the fire marshal's office and Magnuson Park are in a hissy fit over the continued use of Hangar 30 where we hold our Sand Point Market. We have been advised we may not be able to hold our event in 2011. Please contact the mayor of Seattle, Mayor Mike McGinn's, and the city consul and voice your objection to close the hangar except for their precious few. Following is a copy of my letter to the nitwits who control our future.

Closing Magnuson Park without enough notice will cost the city of Seattle untold thousands of dollars and hurt Main Street business.
As promoter of the Sand Point Antique & Design Market for the last 7 years, I have rented Hangar 30 In Magnuson Park nearly 42 times. That is about $126,000 that I have paid to the City of Seattle to use Hangar 30.
In addition to this my wife and I have invested well over $100,000 to promote this antique cultural event.
The Sand Point Market is now the longest running antique show and sale in Seattle's history.
At this moment it is not clear if I can use "building 30" next year and if not, I am out of business. This would be a stinging rebuke of all we have tried to accomplish at Magnuson Park.
The two hundred and 26 thousand dollars we have spent was just a start of cash left in the City or Seattle after our events. From 50 to 100 dealers can have sales for thousands of dollars during our event; look at all the tax money being deposited in the city coffers. We bring hundreds and hundreds families and friends together for about 8 hours exchanging money, fun and a sense of community, which ebbs into the city.
And the Sand Point Antique & Design Market is just one event, which brings cash into the City of Seattle; extrapolate these thousands with about 32 other vendors all producing cash for the City.
From my understanding closing building 30 has been an ongoing dispute between building officials, Fire Marshal and park officials. But, this dispute has been going on since I started promoting the Sand Point Market 7 years ago.
While Mayor Mike McGinn's words here are encouraging, the fighting factions need to understand you do not pull the rug out from under a cash paying, willing exhibitor with only a month or two's notice.
This action is very extreme and should not be implemented until 2012 so that my company and everyone else paying to use building 30 can make other plans.
It is also a knock on the head to know the building will be used Monday to Thursday, in other words, nearly every day by the tennis club and four other annual events. If you allow only this tightly chosen groups, you can continue the use of building 30 for everyone.
Remember, we are talking about the city of Seattle tossing out $300,000 cash plus untold thousands more.
Does this make sense in today's money tight economy?

Well folks I have some good news and some bad news, very bad news. First the good news our next Sand Point Antique & Design Market is Sunday, December 5th., with set up on Saturday, December 4th.
The bad news is this may be our last show. On information and belief, the building department in Seattle has told the park that without a major refit to make the building safe in an earthquake they will no longer permit the use of building 30 (Hangar 30) and the Fire Marshal has stated unless the park build more exits they will no longer issue Fire Permits; these two events have effectively shut all events in Hangar 30; except for about four events a year, reserved for the longest running events coming out of Hangar 30; this does not include us.
I do not understand why they will allow some usage but not all. Within the last 6 years Anita and I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to develop, promote and continue the first viable, continuing antique show in the City of Seattle; the longest running antique show in the City of Seattle. This will be a devastating blow, not only to our own income and to you, our antique vendors. Four-fifths of our personal income comes from the Sand Point Antique & Design Market. There is a certain probability that the loss of income from our event at Marnuson Park will force us into bankruptcy. One cannot expect one to lose 4/5ths of their gross income and survive in one piece. Anita and I are totally devastated by this information.
If enough of us can storm the castle walls we may be able to get this changed.
Anita and I have a greater fear of going out of business than dying in an earthquake in Hangar 30.
This action, or lack thereof, will impact hundreds of our dealers and thousands of our buyers in just one year. Considering the other events in Hangar 30 will impact hundreds of thousands of people from not only the City of Seattle but, the rest of Washington State and other states on the West Coast; people who have for years used Hangar 30 as a cultural venue.
I ask each of you to contact the city "fathers" your dismay at this issue. Perhaps we can get them to change their "collective minds." Personally, I do not understand why they can allow 4 events and not 40 events. Any email or letter please cc to Julianna Ross Vice Chair, Magnuson Park Advisory Committee

Anyone can sell at Sand Point. We are constintly finding new dealers to add to our list of unusual and unexpected displays.
A number of collectors are starting to display and sell with us. This is good for a number or reasons. This allows buyers who want to cull their collections but, do not want to wholesale their treasures. Setting up at Sand Point allows collectors to sell their objects at a retail, or near retail prices. Not only does this give a selling advantage to collectors but this exposes collectors to dealers and other collectors. Sometimes when collector meets collector a nice exchange of objects can happen through trades.
Sand Point has become one of the most unusual antique selling enviornments on the West Coast. As we like to say:
SOPHISTICATED and WHIMISCAL
Antique garden furniture and other art, old and loved linens, French Country, planters, primitives, Native American art, used and unabused furniture, estate and consume jewelry. Find the unpredictable and theunexpected.
Our Market is part design, part therapy and … pure pleasure. You are going to find an ambush of delights, Collectiblities, Inconceivabilities and PERHAPS — even romance. It could happen!

Sand Point Antique & Design Market Sunday, August 29th. 2010 A big winner.
What'a weekend. Anita and I started running the Sand Point Market in 2005. We have consistently held 6 shows a year; this show and sale was the best show ever.
Let me put it a different way -- 30 shows in 5 years and this was the best show -- ever. In the middle of a recession!
Due to a scheduling conflict we had to share part of Hangar 30 with the International Stunt School. Now this was fun; watching all of these young folks swinging, jumping, fighting and all manner of stuff associated with movie or TV shows.
We are now accepting reservations for the October 10th show. $130 for a 10 ft x 12 or 11 ft booth + $5 for the City of Seattle license. You do not need to be a dealer to sell at Sand Point. If you are culling your collection or just have "too much stuff" you can set up. Don't know how to price your "stuff?" We can help. Certainly, there are many dealers at the show who can also help you price your objects.
How much can you make? Well, on the 29th we had people who sold $2,000, $3,000, $4,000 and more. I heard more than one dealer boast of selling more than $5,000 and two exceeded $10,000. Not bad for a one day antique sale.
More than a few buyers said that this was the best show for bargains. There were two notable designers who spent more than $5,000 each.
Thanks to everyone, buyers and sellers all, you made this possible. Thank you again and we will see you October 10th.

Hi Dennis, I attended the August 29th show, "WOW", keep it going!
Last Sunday's Sand Point Market was indeed "WOW." Record sales for nearly everyone. "Fantastic buys" is how one person put it. She was not talking about money, just objects.
I was collecting money when I heard at least three designers call other designers and demand they get to the Market. One caller said: "This is the best antique sale 'ever'." And! It was!
