"Fall" for Tattered Tiques

We are celebrating fall here at Tattered Tiques.  We have filled our main table with fall crafts as well as some great treasures that are perfect for fall decorating.   We will have more to come in the up coming weeks, along with very exciting news. We are also going to expand our hours so we can be open more for you.  Now, some cute pics of what's in the store this week.

I LOVE old antlers.  We always buy them when we are up north, because they are plentiful up there. 

More banners, and how about some festive fringe garland.

These are old cricket boxes.  They were used to transport crickets when you went fishing.  We turned them in to a fall display box.

 
We have been busy restocking some of our crafts, including, Marche Tags.

 
Our new favorite find is filled to the brim with lots of goodies! 

 
Many, many more Paris bottles.

 
 
 
We sold out on dressers last week, so we got busy searching for more. They are REALLY cute!

 
See what I mean? We just can't get enough of this color, and either can our customers.  
 
 

Well, we hope you come out and see us this weekend.  We are open this Thursday, Sept. 1st, Friday the 2nd, and Saturday the 3rd.  Thursday and Friday from 10-5pm, and Saturday 10-3pm.  Visit us at 22029 N. Pepper Road, Unit 2, Lake Barrington, IL. 

Marche' Tags

We recently made some adorable gift tags, which we are calling Marche' Tags, or Market tags.  They are over sized, and are gifts in themselves.  Each one is a unique design.  We have made many tags in the last few years and always find new ideas and inspiration. 

 
Nests and Birds are so popular right now for spring.

 
I love finding new ways to use vintage jewelry!

 
This used to be part of an antique brooch which was broken.  We gave it new life.  It turned out adorable.

 
On the dragonfly tag, I added an antique compass charm.  I find these often, they must of been a bubble gum or cracker jack toy long ago. 

 
Here they are all lined up.  How did we do?

 
They are filled with vintage this and that.  Images, fabrics, jewelry, and what not.  We will be selling them in the shop in Barrington, as well as on line at our Etsy shop.  Save on postage and come see us in Barrington!

There is much more to come this week as far as crafts go.  Mom has been busy making adorable things with vintage jars, bird nests, and moss and other nature inspired items. I'll post some pictures soon. 

We are off yet again headed back to Iowa.  We just love it there, and the auction houses' love us!
