Geek Goes Vintage Is Open

It's been a haze of a couple weeks spent working full time in my day job and most of the night getting my little Geek Goes Vintage store up and looking at least partially how I envisaged it. Though my house is littered with boxes, half painted bits of furniture and piles of stuff, I feel like I'm getting there.

The downside to selling, I have already realised, is that I'm actually pretty attached to each and every single item I have for sale and I feel a little pang every time I return to the store to see that something else has been sold! 

I'm clearly missing the point but then I buy things that I love that have reached out to me in some weird, twisted way!

Things like this Guide Dogs For The Blind Tray, that is, as Biba explained it, 'So wrong, it's right.'
I have to agree with her and after thinking about it all week, I've decided not to sell it. I think I would regret it for ever more!

If you fancy stopping by for a visit, you will find Kibworth Antiques Centre on the A6 between Kibworth and Market Harborough. In addition to my kitschy collection there's currently around 5000 sq ft of eclectic antiques and collectables with a further 2000 sq ft opening in the next couple of weeks as The Den. 
We will be organising a little press / blogger launch event, so if you would like an invite, please leave your details in a comment or you can tweet me @Geekisnewchic
