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.

Sale ~ Sale ~ Sale!

It's time for some spring cleaning at Woopi Jane's Thangs. We need to make room for several items we recently aquired from a small but nice estate that we bought out last week. Select items will be reduced by 50% with most other items on sale as well. This will include the "stuff" out on the porch.

There are several things in the works up at Horse Feathers Studio which will be in Geronimo real soon. Included will be a sweet 1930s curios cabinet that has been custom painted and I am still working on the Hoozier cabinet along with a few other smaller projects. Remember that it is a one woman show so don't get impatient if it takes a bit longer than you might think. Quality takes time!

Options, Options, Options

This time of year there is so much going on and it is impossible to take it all in. Classes are ending for the session for almost everyone which means we can expect to see some younger folks in the shop. It is also a time that our winter texans begin to head north. The weather has been dry so dealers are out and about in droves taking advantage os various sales and favorite pickin' spots.

Just this past weekend I was able to aquire the bid for a small 2 bedroom estate. There are lots of collectible smalls and a few nice art pices and small collectibles and assorted furniture. It is one of the situation that requires a move into assisted living. Keep posted for those and remember the auctions soon. I will post pics as the boxed are unpacked. That's the fun part.

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.

Kerry scores!

Wow! Tables just don't come any cooler than this sweet English gem. It has an unusual single side drop leaf as seen in this photo and the front has 2 side-by-side drawers. The top is beautiful retro 1950s "I Love Lucy" red with the squiggles for added personality. I can see this table used in so many ways. It is the perfect size for extra kitchen work space. Imagine having this versitle piece in a craft room, your office as a desk, breakfast nook, sun room, bedroom or bath - It just works!

The table is owned by Kerry and Brad who are talented antiquers and collecters with an eye for the high-end glass and pottery, the diverse & divine, as well as the fun kitschy. Find this piece and more in Geronimo, Texas at Blue Hills Antique Mall, an antiquing destination.

A journey began

Sold! Sold! Sold! Sold! Sold!
Was it really that long ago? Seems like only yesterday I was standing on a chair in my Grandmother's modern red and yellow kitchen "helping out". I have learned that a journey is not always forward and in fact can be as simple as a soft and sweet memory. Enjoy the pictures from Blue Hills Antique Mall and plan a trip to Geronimo and a walk, hand-in-hand,  with your own unique memories.
