We have been getting a lot of questions about our printables. I thought I would address some of those questions here. I use an inkjet printer. The name of it is HP Envy 7155. I bought it about 3 years ago. It was around $200. It's an all-in-one, wireless printer, meaning it scans, copies, and prints. Although I haven't tried it, I've read it works with Alexa. They still have them on Amazon. The price has come down to around $160 now. If I need a print larger than 8.5 x 11 I usually go to my local printing company. 

I cut a lot of images by hand. However, if it's an image I'm going to sell in my booth, I use a paper trimmer. This gives a clean, straight edge and looks more professional. You can find these at any craft store or Amazon. 

For those of you that don't have a printer, you can still use our printables. You would need to email the image to your local print company. Saving the image to a flash drive would be another option. You can also find these on Amazon as well. You just insert this device into the side of your laptop or desktop and save the image. Then you can take the flash drive into a place like Staples or Office Depot and insert it into one of their computers for prints. 

Hi friends. I hope you all had a great weekend. We had beautiful weather here and I was able to get out a bit and do some junkin. I have so many fun things I have found lately. I really need to do a Junk haul video. Last week we received a request from a new follower. Kelsey is new to the industry and reached out to us asking how to stage with greenery. It's incredible how one design element can change the look and feel of your booth. Adding greenery can add layering, texture and that pop of color you need. Since we have a lot of new faces lately, I thought this would be a great topic for a video. So we posted that video yesterday in case you missed it. Just click here to watch. 

We also give you a sneak peek at our new ebook, Ideas For March Booth Merchandise. It's a 50-page book with lots of photo inspiration from booths. We cover Spring, St. Patrick's Day and Easter decor for your booth. There is a wholesale list for greenery and stems, a tutorial on how to age concrete and spring printables that are only available in the ebook. 

Happy Monday friends. I have been cleaning out my old graphics and ran across this one from many years ago. I thought it looks very Spring-ish. So I decided to give as a freebie. I hope this makes your Monday blues a little better. 

Spring has arrived in Georgia and Alabama. That means one thing for us southerners...it's time to decorate all the porches. Today, I have a special guest. Her name is Jeannie Lauderdale. She runs a Facebook page called Frenchgypsy and you might know her from 1861 Alabama Farmhouse on Instagram. 

I'm proud to call her a friend. She and I met in 2016. She was working her antique booth when I first met her. We hit it off immediately and have stayed in touch since. She is now retired from the booth industry. She has been a collector for the last 50 years. She was a dealer for 40 years and had a booth at Angel's Antiques in Opelika, AL for 18 of those years. She also had a booth at Antiques on Holiday in Destin, FL. Once you have been bitten by the antique bug it's in your bones for good. You can still find, Jeannie, selling on Facebook marketplace and on eBay. 

I reached out to her and asked her if she would give you a tour of her back porch and she accepted. She has antique collections to die for. So I thought you could get some inspiration to create some of the vignettes in your own booth this Spring.
