Madison-Bouckville 2023

Image Leave a comment

The thing about antiquing at Madison-Bouckville Antique Week – the way shopping becomes another form of exercise. Four hours of visiting the various “villages” of tents is equivalent to about eight miles of walking/hiking! It is a lot of fun. You should go!

Madison-Bouckville Antique week continues through August 20, 2023. The dealers are open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm every day. Here are my favorite finds –

Dawn Dolls

Horses

Birdhouses

Dominoes

Typewriters

Buddahs

Skeleton Keys

Happy hunting! Happy hiking! <3

It’s Eclectic!

Janine and I had such a blast at The Eclectic Chic (2044 Glenwood Plaza, Oneida, NY 13421). I follow them on Facebook – another amazing antique store housing several vendors under one former grocery store roof. Upon entering, you get to enjoy this wonderful retro diner vignette. We were both giddy about it. The photo ops were over the top. So fun!

I loved the way the entire store was merchandised. Several groupings of flag motif items united the booths with patriotic flair.

This crocheted apron (above) was only $5!

These presidents (above) were in needlepoint. Not sure if you can see the incredible detail in the picture. They are fabulous!

Next weekend (June 30-July 1) they are planning a trunk show with a turquoise vendor who will also be appraising jewelry.

I really wanted that tin rooster (above). I may have to go back and get it. Tomorrow and Wednesday they are planning a 10% off sale for teachers! The Eclectic Chic is open seven days a week. Call them at (315) 363-1031 for more information or email them at the eclecticchicny@gmail.com.
