The season for antique shows starts early for No Egrets

Antique Show in De Pere WI, St, Norbert's Collage

Antique Show in De Pere WI, St, Norbert’s Collage

With a lineup to include antique shows in West Bend, Wausau, and DePere Wisconsin, our season seemed full and yet another venue just presented itself and HOW could we refuse.
Located in Franklin WI at the new sports complex, heard about the opportunity to end our year with a new show.

Address: 6000 W Ryan Rd, Franklin, WI 53132 Phone:(414) 281-2694

Part antique part collectible, held on a non-Packer Football day, and no estate sales lined up, how could we pass up another chance to sell some of our goodies.
When a new show comes along its difficult to estimate what success we will have, nor do we have an idea of what to bring along. I know Wifey will have her jewelry and I’ll bring old cast iron tools and pre-electric mechanical gadgets.
Hope to see you Dec. 5 & 6th 2015 and in years to come.

No Egrets Antiques is getting ready for the next great show.  Located in De Pere Wi, a Green Bay Wisconsin Suburb, at the Schuldes Sports Center, 601 3rd Street on the campus of St. Norbert Collage.

We look forward to this show each year. The venue is warm and inviting, the food is delicious, and our band of antique friends are bring their best antiques for the crowd of enthusiastic buyers that always attend this annual event.

For No Egrets, the planning started almost as soon as we were back from the Wausau Antique show. We spend a short time going over what did sell. Being generalist rather then specializing in one area of antiques, we spend some time trying to rationalize why collectors buy what they find in,our booth. The more we ponder the results, the less we understand what collectors are looking for. So in the end our selections only have one thing in common, their OLD.

We hope to see you their, and when you have the chance look for No Egrets, and also say HI to the Hanson’s and thank them for bring together a great group of dealer for all their shows.

We can be reached by email, if you have suggestions on what collecting area you would like to have us bring along we will do our best to pack some examples along.

We can be reached at : Val & Dean, noegrets@asapnet.net

See you there.

West Bend Antique Show, What a Great Day For Antique Hunters

Our booth was set up and waiting for the doors to open on the first day of the West Bend Antique Show on Saturday, January 18, 2014. We had spent a great deal of time on preparing for this event, readying a variety of antiques, many purchased on a recent Southern buying trip and on other adventures over the last year. The crowd was waiting for the doors to open on Saturday.  Nona and Skip of NL Promotions always draw a large crowd for this great event and at their Elkhorn Antique Markets in summer.

This two day show has been and continues to be the place where we bring our best finds; we title them our “A” Game. It may be that time of year when you’re finally buying something for yourself instead of gifts for family, friends or co-workers. Or after the holiday decor’ was put away, you see a gap on the wall or a place around the room that needs filling.

What better place than an antique show to reward yourself with a special find for your collecting or decorating needs?  Val spent the better part of two weeks just getting the antiques selected, priced and packed for this show. She chooses items from our stock that reflect current trends in the market; things that are hot and determining what is not.  She does her best to group items that are similar, but at different price points, since pricing must reflect what the buyer is willing to pay.

Friday was setup, with some extra time to chat with our fellow dealers, companions from here and other shows. We have a look around to view the other booths and marvel at the great stuff different sellers have to offer. We even find a treasure or two for our own collections!

As always we had a great time, enjoyed the conversations with our customers, shared our stories and listened to their tales on the joy of finding antique treasures.

We will continue to search for the oddities you have come to expect from No Egrets Antiques, and hope to see you at Cabin Fever Flea Market at the Knights Of Columbus Hall, 1800 S. 92nd Street, West Allis Wisconsin. It will be held on Sunday, March 2nd.  Just look for the guy with the tie.

Just a reminder: We are always interested in discussing items you may want to sell, either directly or through our estate sale service. No Egrets is reachable by email- noegrets@asapnet.net or 414-916-7829 to discuss your options, and see our Estate Sale site for more information.

 

 

Pontiac Center Hosts the Janesville WI Antique Show For Hardy Collectors

Our first visit to the Janesville, WI Antique Show was several years back, and set our desire to one day have a booth of our own at this well-attended event. This year we finally had our chance, and despite weather conditions that kept polar bears indoors, we had a very good show.

Our hosts are Steve and Thelma, two hard-working individuals that organize and conduct this event. What a great gathering of antiques and collectibles brought to the show by individual dealers from around the surrounding states. Whether your interest was limited to marbles or post cards, furniture or glass, jewelry or paintings, wall art or fancy lamps, sports collectibles or vintage cameras, toys or tools, primitives or Mid-century, one of the booths had just what you wanted.

Our weather was the worst in memory with snow and extreme cold, and yet many hardy folks braved the elements to purchase a special item for their collection, decorating or to wear. The chance to discuss our array of collectibles and listen to what drives the true collectors in the pursuit of one more object for their hobby of collecting is alway a lively chat. We look forward to participating in next year’s event and hope our luck with the weather is better than this year.

Our next event is the West Bend Wisconsin Antique Show, an NL Promotions production. The dates are January 18th  and 19th. Nona and Skip (of Elkhorn Antique Markets fame) always put on a great event.

No Egrets booth will contain fresh antiques (Oxymoron) and collectibles gathered on a recent trip into the Southeastern states.

Our booth location on the back wall is the same place we have occupied for a number of years at this event. Watch for the No Egrets booth sign, and continue to check back for future shows and or estate sales we conduct. We’ll see you there.
