This morning as I went about my rounds shipping eBay, checking my mailboxes and inspecting some landscaping projects I decided to stop in to see my friend John at his Just Not New shop in Cuttingsville, Vermont. Wow! John's little green shop is loaded with some great antiques and lots of other vintage items from around the Vermont countryside. John was in the process of unloading a new acquisition. It is a wonderful handmade antique desk with a marvelous primitive look.
I love to poke around in John's Just Not New shop. I never know what I'll find in there. If you're in the area be sure to stop in and say hello to John at 5304 Rte 103, just over the bridge from John C. Stewart. You can see a few of the items John has for sale on his website but if you're looking for more antique furniture you can also see lots of John's merchandise at The Vermont Wreath Company in Danby, Vermont. The Vermont Wreath Company/Danby Antique Center is a group shop filled with some great vintage finds from the New England area. Tell John that Cindy sent you!

Former Rochester antique dealer joining Antiques Roadshow tour
"As a staffer in the Post-Bulletin newsroom from 1978 to 2002, Moran worked as a copy editor, news editor and features editor. He was an antique dealer in Rochester in the 1980s and '90s. He is the author of more than 25 books on antiques and collectibles. For the last two years, he has been editor of the 800-page Warman's Guide to Antiques & Collectibles, which this year is in its 45th edition."
I love the Warman's guide. Congrats Mark Moran!

That's only 25 years ago.
My hubby owned his dad's old 1966 Dodge Dart when I first met him. We drove that car from Houston, Texas to Vermont in July 1980. I still have nightmares about the steering and brakes on that old car. We actually brought our newborn daughter home from the hospital in that car in 1986.

Antiques & Collectibles: 'Make do' with your own unique creation
Antiques & Collectibles: 'Make do' with your own unique creation
"Local and online auctions, flea markets, secondhand and antique stores are great starting places when setting out on the search for interesting artifacts. The truly dedicated junk-market hunter will venture out even further and travel to salvage yards, old barns, attics, markets with imported furniture and seek out fabrics from upholstery shops to find objects of interest."

"From 18th century French armoires to letters signed by Abraham Lincoln, the items at "Celebrity Consignment" in a historic section of the Florida town are raking in profits, Foley says."
From Congressman to eBay Trading Assistant?
"Foley said he's selling high-end items like large-piece furniture, chandeliers and paintings -- and even a letter signed by French architect Pierre Charles L'Enfant, who designed the nation's capital. Not all items belong to Foley, he said, noting that several private dealers have brought valuables to the store to cash in on profits."
