Sweet memories rediscovered

Once upon a time is what you will think and "I remember..." is what you will say when you take a stroll through our shop searching through antiques, vintage and wonderful retro collections, primitives and sometimes unique items. It is our joy to search high and low for those special items that are just waiting for you to discover at Woopi Jane's Thangs. You will find pretty vintage glass, quilts, advertising, silver, Victorian era delights, delicate old linens, chippy and crackled painted furniture, great retro kitchen items, sweet antique photos, kitchy creations, steampunked funk, primitive tools and early Americana. We will even keep your wish list in mind as we explore. Stop in and tell 'em Woopi Jane sent you at Blue Hills Antique Mall in Geronimo, Texas which is located just 6 miles West of I-10 and Seguin on Highway 123 towards San Marcos. It's just the best shop in Texas and you'll be glad you did. Be sure to ask for a 10% discount on WJ items. We welcome pickers to our barns and Woopi Jane's Horse Feathers Studio, by appointment, and will consider buying your item or items at resonable prices. Of course, my opinions are absolutly free. If we are not buying what you have to sell then we will send you to the right persons - From one item to a full estate sale or business liqudation we can take care of your needs.

Kitchen Cabinet Project

Here she is in all of her painted glory! This piece is going to take a few hours to get the paint off and then I can determine what the next step will be. The glass, hardware, sifter, and bones all look good.  I do know she will look great in the shop and will find a new forever home.This is my last larger project which means I HAVE to hit a few sales and get restocked.
Will post the upates as we go along.


Sweet Whispers & Butterfly Kisses

Just have to share this sweet quite moment that I encountered this morning. The little mimosa tree has flowered even in the face of the worse drough in 157 years. The pretty pink blooms were being visited by 2 butterflies that are migrating to Mexico. We have not seen as many and maybe this is a new beginning. It does not take much to find a delight nearby waiting to be discovered. It is even more rewarding to share.

Roundtop & Warrenton Show

Shake your tail feathers and breath a sigh of relief that it's almost over. What? What do you mean you don't know about the BIG Days and Days and Days long Antique Show and Sale??? Oh my! Yes, right down the road from LaGrange and Smithville not too far from Giddings and yes, that's Texas. All reports we have heard are very good and the past 2 bi-annual shows have been off. One year it was Hurricane Rita and those kind of things that can put a damper on sales. This past 2 weeks could not have been better in the weather department. While everyone was off treking through the miles and miles of shops and having much fun those of us manning the home front (shops) saw a bit of a slump. It's a usual thing and after a little break we are back at it. All of those folks who sold out at the shows will now need to come visit us!
