Booth 217 at Covington Antiques and Stuff

A few months back we decided it would be to our tax advantage to boost our efforts in selling antiques and collectibles. After some extensive research, we signed a 6 month contract with Covington Antiques and Stuff and took possession of booth 217 in same on August 2nd, 2010. Our booth is 8 X 10 and is on the corner of an isle near the back of the large antique mall. The booth came with walls made of 2x4s and lattice work--perfect for hanging items for display.
After moving in, we began to sell items and thru 2010, it has already paid for the $105 monthly rent--including the 12% paid to the mall of all sold items.
We try to match some of the booth contents with the season--thus far in 2010--we have displayed and sold items for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and most recently Christmas. In fact, below are photos taken 11-11 where we just added the Xmas ornaments and other items of of the season.
