POTTERY

So I find myself suddenly enamored with funky pottery which is hard to acquire. Of course I want ancient, rare, can’t afford pieces. I was flipping through images and saw this and then I went down the crafting rabbit hole! This is what a single girl does on Valentine's Day!

FEBRUARY

The new Glenwood Antique Mall is changing daily. New dealers, new/old items and continued construction which makes me very happy. It's always a risk moving into a new venue but I can see the shop getting the much needed layers of items and interest that we all love.

This week I added a white wicker bookcase, painted dining table, a lovely chippy vanilla painted Eastlake table and an all white old library table from the 1940's as well as many smaller items. Hope to see you!!

A lovely Victorian shaving mirror; wood with gold trim and hand mirror.

Painted gourds (as found) inside a paper pulp bowl.

A print of a handprinted photo and antique frame.

more boho accessories; beaded collar necklace and faux fur vest. 

Crochet and wicker wrapped bottles.

A native indoor/outdoor 5' x 7' rug.

AT THE MALL

My latest project for sale are these new/old photographs all framed in white.

All is good @glenwoodantiquemall. One month has passed since our Grand Opening and I am pleased so far with the move. There are always a few hiccups and issues when you are doing business in a new place but most of that was to be expected. Despite the icky weather Kansas City has been having we have continued to have great crowds who are discovering us for the first time. Each weekend I seem to scramble for replacement items (which is a great thing!) and during the week I fine tune all the new inventory. Our lighting is still being installed and once that is in I feel my space will have the drama and accent it really needs. Take a look at some of the items coming through my space. How to see you! 

This amazing farm table didn't last long. Gone in 4 hours...(headed to Round Top, Texas is the rumor!).

After a shelving unit sold on opening day, I found myself at Ikea buying this metal and glass unit for a replacement, which I LOVE. It added just the right amount of modern to my booth and is a great display piece.

A look at an average day of junkin' for some accessories sell.

GRAND OPENING

Nothing better than having to replenish your space after a successful Grand Opening! Thanks to all who came out to shop Curious Sofa at the Glenwood Antique Mall. New stuff weekly.

NEW YEAR, NEW LOCATION

A New Year, a new location!

Now you can visit Curious Sofa every day at the new Glenwood Antique Mall. Grand Opening, January 1. 

Open Monday - Saturday 9-7, Sunday 9-5

READY, SET, GO...

Glenwood Antique Mall’s grand opening is New Year’s Day at 9 a.m. and Curious Sofa (along with over 100 other dealers) will be ready for you. Despite the continued construction, our booths still do not have power outlets yet, so no lamps or chandeliers are lit- making me shy away from shooting a wide shot of my space because lighting is everything!! Until then, enjoy some details. Hope you can make it! 

ALMOST READY

I’ve spent the last two weeks getting my space ready at the new Glenwood Antique Mall (opening January 1). Naturally I can’t leave well enough alone; I had to wallpaper my entire booth, route all my electrical from the ceiling, hang all my signs along with trying to find a handful of new merchandise to change it up a bit. These pics are my inspiration for the direction I am going. Still using white and neutral colors with lots of wood, wicker, textures and patterns. No doubt I am bit different than the other dealers there, but I just can’t hang it up and walk out- it’s got to inspire ME! Hope you can make it. Pics to come..

NEW HOME

It is with many mixed emotions I announce Curious Sofa will no longer be selling inside Urban Mining Vintage Market after this First Friday December weekend. 

For 2 1/2 years, Urban Mining has graciously been the brick and mortar home of Curious Sofa. I have learned so much from this original First Friday shop, made good friends and met some great customers but I feel the time is right to change things up.

A new antique mall is opening at 91st & Metcalf and I feel it is a chance to move closer to my Prairie Village and South Kansas City customers. Glenwood Antique Mall is located in the former TJ Maxx location (next to Lily's Estate Sales). I am excited to be one of over 100 dealers ready to sell here in the new year.

Follow them on FB to learn of their grand opening date coming soon. Oh yes, and OPEN EVERY DAY!! https://www.facebook.com/MallGlenwood/ 

FIRST FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 2019

Here we go! Another First Friday is upon us. Shop Curious Sofa this weekend at Urban Mining. I have separated my space into two different looks, light and dark. The dark side features a leather sofa, a pair of amazing display backdrops probably used for Ralph Lauren or an Ambercombie; a large desk, a pair of wonderful Florentine tables and amore....

The light side features a raw wood pedestal table and 4 acrylic chairs, a rattan Peacock chair, French Provincial armoire, and as always tons of jewelry, bags and accessories.

Open September 5-9
Thursday 5-9, Friday 9-9, Saturday 9-6, Sunday 12-5.
3111 Gillham Road, KCMO
