Insider
June  2010
Hi,
Friends, family, and colleagues have always been so encouraging about my Antiques Insider "project." But the last few days,  several friends I didn't even know were readers have told me how much they like receiving the Insider, so I asked them to let me share their enthusiasm with you. 
 
Their comments and pictures are below.
 
I really appreciate all our readers, listers, and advertisers. It energizes me to hear that people look forward to opening the email.  Hope you'll enjoy this issue.
Anne Blomeyer

Thanks and happy Fourth of July,

 Sharing Enthusiasm from Insider Friends 
 

"Enthusiasm" could be friend Jackie Boyd's other name. I've had fun working with her this year on the Dallas Symphony League's new Fall fund raiser, City Living Tour-- a designer show house on the 18th floor of a high rise in Victory Park.  (Watch the Insider for more information, and contact me if you'd like to participate as a donor or consignor in the CLT on-line fund-raising auction.)

Jackie Boyd, new president of Dallas Symphony League
Jackie Boyd
  

Jackie says the Insider looks great.   She loves and collects glass, porcelain, and pottery for her lovely home. So guess what she looks at first.

  

At a small reception yesterday afternoon honoring retiring DSO Concertmaster Emanuel Borok,  I heard friend Jill Goldberg telling another friend
Jill Goldberg, designing woman
Jill Goldberg
about the Insider. (What a nice surprise.) Jill said she'd recently searched through the Insider for furniture pieces that might work for her current decorating project, and then visited Forestwood Mall for up-close looks.  And she's not finished--she'll be back. 

  

Someone who's a regular visitor at the malls, including Forestwood, is my friend and neighbor Lynn Vogt.  Lynn's the 4th generation of a Dallas family.
Lynn Vogt and wooden swan from Forestwood Mall
Lynn Vogt
 Her beautiful high rise condo
 is a treasure trove, with many family pieces.

 

 Lynn writes: We've always been interested in local history, antiques and antiquarian books.  Thirty years ago, treasures could be found in antique shops along McKinney, Routh and Sale streets, but with most of those gone, Forestwood, other antique malls, and the stores along Industrial (now Riverside?) are wonderful to visit. 

 
 

Once I find a special piece, I'm always likely to return, and that has certainly happened at Forestwood where I've found some great historical postcards, books and furniture. One of my favorite  purchases is a large, primitive, wooden swan with a carved out back (where ivy plants have found a happy home).

 

The Insider publication gives updated information on dealers, items being offered, special sales, and valuable general information.  With a city as large as Dallas, the Insider publication is a great venue gathering  so many dealers in one place to share their stories and their treasures.

 

Thank you ladies for sharing your enthusiasm!
