ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! Shops "2 SHaBBy LaDieS BOOTH" Boulder City, NV

One of the FIRST Stops I always make when visiting Boulder City, Nevada, is GOAT FEATHERS EMPORIUM, located in the downtown historic district...   My FaVoriTe Shabby Booth Display was loaded with lots of white and sparkling chandeliers ~ of course!!!  After some emails/phone calls I was able to meet with one of the 2 ladies who share this booth space...   Nancie & MaryAnn call themselves "2 Shabby Ladies"...  I soooo enjoyed meeting Nancie...   Do click on the Goat Feathers link above to see some pics of their space in years past...  Check out their OUTDOOR SET-UP when Boulder City hosts their annual ART-IN-THE-PARK Event in the Fall!!! (click on pics to enlarge...)

 The ceilings are quite tall at Goat Feathers Emporium, allowing these "2 Shabby Ladies" to make the most of their displays!!!  Chandeliers were hanging everywhere in their space!*!*!

 These old shabby-painted doors not only look fab ~ but act as a perfect divider to define their space...  I just loved the barbola trim surrounding the center...  YES, there was a price tag on them this time...  And - Let me tell you - I was quite tempted!!!

 ~  Meet Nancie!!!  ~  

I sooo enjoyed our chit-chat!!!  Unfortunately MaryAnn was not available to meet that day...   

Here I am with Nancie, holding some "Sweet" SHaBBy-RoSe Bookends...

There are a few other antique stores in Boulder City, so it's well worth the drive...  Antique Depot had a good amount of SHaBBies ~ but the prices were high...

This grouping of inviting vintage finds lined the sidewalk in front of the Antique Depot...

Even though the weather in Boulder City was a bit on the cool side,  signs of SPRING were everywhere!!!  Loved these beautiful white flower blossoms!!!

I'm saving some of my best pics for last!!!

I'll be posting
