Not quite two weeks in, and I’ve already rearranged my new wall space.
This is how I had it set up originally. I absolutely LOVE using a ladder, opened up and filled with product; but I really NEED to sell that ladder. So I decided to re-work the space and lean the ladder, folded, against the wall; making it easier for someone to purchase.
This is how it looks after the rearrange. I added the black metal table on the far left, and the vintage metal bar stool. Everything else was just moved a little.
Side by side comparison. To compensate for the loss of the vertical display space on the ladder, I hung a few things on the wall at the top of the space.
Galvanized cubby shelf and canisters. Little metal ‘file basket’ set on its side with stack of grubby books and electric candle.
Close up of display on top of cubby shelf. Those little baby food jars contain some moss and hand painted tiny faux bird eggs.
Wall space just above the cubby shelf, a wire basket hung on its side to function as a shelf. Vintage repro tin tiles that I upcycled into memo boards, a bundle of grubby books and a couple of old whisk brooms in a small tin flower bucket on the ‘shelf’. The little wash board ‘memo board’ has clothespins backed with magnets to hold memos.
A couple more baskets hung to use as shelves above the burlap curtains.
Perfectly grubby industrial style vintage metal stool.
I was HOPING to have enough room to open up this little step-ladder. That didn’t happen, but I was able to move it closer to the front where it’s more visible and accessible to shoppers.
With the ladder folded up, it’s more difficult to display items on it. This metal basket tucked into the ladder just perfectly! Tight enough to not fall out, but loose enough to easily remove. It was a perfect spot for some garden signs. The rusty wire baskets I had, fit nicely in the two rungs below this. Rolls of chicken wire filled one.

Trying to make the various trugs more visible, moving them to the front edge of the space.
Here you can better see the other baskets on the ladder rungs. Big rusty and metal urn, stacked with assorted other vintage buckets and baskets.
And a few new things in my big booth!
